The wide variety of visits on offer and the pass's practicality in organizing the day make a stay with the Lisboa pass a smooth one.

I really liked the cloister, the ornamentation of the columns and capitals is very rich. I find the Manueline style very interesting. Also the sacritistia with the wood and leather furniture and the very unique books.

Nice experience. We loved the Pena Palace and surroundings. I recommend the carriage museum. On the downside, we were not able to visit the Belem Tower. We arrived at the site and the officials did not give us access. They use tourists to get job perks and that is unfair. It is a bad image for Portugal and tour operators like Headout should take part in it, because they sell a promise that is not being fulfilled and it also damages their image. For me, the fair thing would be to be compensated for those tickets included in the Lisbon Card.

Headout worked well for booking. With our tickets, we waited in a relatively long line to get in (within an hour) but once inside, found the experience well worth the visit and a must see.

The monastery is stunning... cool, beautiful and serene . Worth queueing to visit, although after buying a ticket online we got to the front of the queue and then had to go across the road to pick up the Lisboa card. The office was closed for lunch, so by the time we got into the monastery several hours had gone by.

Right on the banks of the Tagus River sits the National Tile Museum, paying homage to the azulejo (tile) - part of Portugal’s defining artistic heritage. Its humble exteriors are no match for its grand interiors. Take a closer look at this craft and see the detail that goes into each tile, as they portray everything from major historical events to symmetrical patterns. Tiled works of art adorn streets, homes, churches, and buildings all over Lisbon and the country. Enhance your visit with the audio guide option in English, providing deeper insights into the exhibits.
