Greatest part was that we could climb almost everywhere, even the places we didn't know exist but found them accidentaly

It was great that you didn't have to worry about whether you could take the bus or not. You could often get in quicker than if you had to buy a ticket on the spot. I really liked the Crown Jewels exhibition. We went there in the afternoon and there was hardly anything going on.

The autonomy that gives you to have a card with which you can access transport without problem and a lot of monuments. They should consider the option of making a card for four days, we missed the last day and we would have loved to have Lisbon Card.Stefano

The lisboa card is a good solution that allows you to get around the city and see various attractions while also often skipping the ticket booth line. It's just too bad that pickup is tied to a physical operator and daytime office hours, if you arrive at night you will pick it up the next day.

The ticket for the palace The ticket for the palace was the same one you get with the app, so it's very easy to access. However, the Lisbon Card was more complicated because the downtown offices closed at lunchtime, which was the time we arrived. However, there was no problem getting it later.
