Ordering was easy. Exchanging the voucher was also relatively simple. Where there is definitely room for improvement: reserving time slots at some attractions is only possible with the Lisboa Card serial number. However, you only get this upon exchanging the voucher. By then, available time slots are almost impossible to book. We had the 72-hour card and would only have been able to book time slots starting from the fourth day. So unfortunately, we couldn't see everything. But overall, the card is definitely worth it.

Easy to purchase the Lisboa Card, even simpler to use. Just tap in on the mode of transport you're using and on you get. It was also good for getting into attractions free, or the Catherdal with discount. Would definitely recommend if you plan on visiting lots of places when in Lisbon.

We purchased the Lisboa Card, which included 72 hours of access to all public transportation, over 50 free entries to museums and other attractions, and discounts at restaurants. Very useful if you want to see a lot of things and get around quickly.

Ordering the tickets online and picking them up (Centro Interpretativo da História do Bacalhau, Praça do Comércio) was quick and easy. We had no problems with the Lisboa Card at any attractions or on local transport/trains to Cascais.

The Lisboa card was so easy and convenient to use. Free trains, trams, buses and metro plus free or discounted entry to landmarks. Would definitely recommend.

Visit the resting place of King Pedro I and Inês de Castro—their tombs are masterpieces of Gothic sculpture.

See the church, King’s Hall, Cloister of King Dinis or Cloister of Silence, Refectory, Kitchen Monk’s Hall, and more.

Upgrade your ticket by purchasing a Lisbon Card that provides you entry to over 39 attractions across a time period of 24, 48, or 72 hours.

The Lisboa Card is great for getting about on public transport and if you are able to make use of entry to attractions it's can also be cost effective... BUT! We were unable to book any slots to see either Belem Tower or the Monestary using them as they restrict the number of Lisboa Card bookings. We ended up paying full price to try and get tickets which was very dispapointing.

The first Gothic structure in Portugal

The Alcobaça Monastery is the first Portuguese Gothic structure, crucial in the 12th century's establishment of the Portuguese Kingdom. Monks of the Order of Cistercians began constructing the monastery in 1778. No trip to Portugal is complete without seeing Europe's finest example of Cistercian architecture.

Discover how the monks lived

Walk to the heart of the monastery, where the Cloister of King Dinis or Cloister of Silence lies. It gives access to the refectory, the primitive kitchen, the monks’ hall, the chapter house, the church, and the dormitory. Be mesmerized by the Church of Saint Mary of Alcobaça, the first Gothic Portuguese church. Admire the King’s Hall, where the cladding of the walls with 18th-century tile panels depicts the monastic foundation.

Be awed by the medieval artwork

Inside the monastery, marvel at the masterpieces of medieval statues, the tombs of D. Pedro I, and Inês de Castro, and get to see the statues of São Bento and São Bernardo.
