The Telecabine Lisboa offers stunning panoramic views over the Tagus River and Parque das Nações—something you just can’t experience from the ground. The ride is smooth, quiet, and incredibly relaxing, giving you time to truly take in the scenery without the usual city rush. What makes it special is the perspective: you glide above landmarks like the Oceanário and Vasco da Gama Tower, with the river stretching endlessly beside you. It feels peaceful yet exciting at the same time. The cabins are modern, clean, and comfortable, making it perfect for couples, families, or even solo travelers who just want a calm moment with a view. The whole experience is short (around 10 minutes one way), but absolutely worth it for the photos and memories. If you’re visiting Lisbon, this is a must-do—simple, scenic, and unforgettable.

Buying the ticket was quick and was quick and easy. Had to download the app to access the bar code, but that was no problem. Would recommend and use again

It’s very convenient, with one exhibit right next to another, and everything is very well organized. We’d love to come back again because there will be new exhibits at the aquarium soon.

    The view from the cable car was magnificent. The nice weather certainly helped. There weren't many people there that day, so having a cabin just for the two of us was perfect.

    What an amazing tour! If you've never been, I highly recommend it. It gives you an incredible feeling—the view is amazing!
  • Journey through the skies of Lisbon, Portugal, on the city’s pride - the Telecabine Cable Car, also called the Gandola Lift! The Nations Park Cable Car was inaugurated in March 1998 as part of the International Exposition of Lisbon. Being the only attraction of its kind in Lisbon, the aerial journey offers a magnificent view of the river, towers, monuments, and more from above. The aerial lift is owned by the Telecabine Lisboa company, which maintains and operates it.

    Explore The City From Above

    Your ride will begin at either the North or South Station of Passeio das Tágides. Once you arrive, you can board one of the 40 cabins, with each having room for 7 other passengers. Before you do, don’t miss the opportunity to click a snapshot! The trip will take a total of 8 to 12 minutes and carries you across 1230 meters over the splendid sights of Lisbon city.

    On the ride, you will get a good look at the Oceanarium, the old Vasco de Gama Tower (now known as the My Riad Hotel), and the second-longest bridge in Europe - the Vasco da Gama Bridge. As you move over the Tagus river, you will also witness the Portugal Pavilion, St. Gabriel and St. Raphael towers, and the Atlantic Pavilion (or Meo Arena).

    Known for its ancient streets with modern street art, the old 'City of Spies,' the Telecabine Cable Car offers a 360-degree view of Lisbon that is hard to beat! The towers and buildings complement the backdrop of the riverways and skies perfectly, thus creating a memorable scenery for tourists.
