The 15 Best Things to Do in Lisbon

"If you’re in search of Belém’s cultural and culinary adventures, you can simply hop on the sleek No. 15 tram from the city center to get around. But it’s the No. 28 that every visitor should weave into their itinerary. These vintage Remodelado streetcars, wooden and painted yellow, are a throwback to another era. In peak season, you could be waiting for an hour to board one of these beauties. But that retro feel, perched on a bench as the tram clatters its way through the city’s narrow streets and blares its horn, is priceless." - Alia Akkam, Chadner Navarro

"Tram 28 The city’s iconic wood-paneled Tram 28 rambles along a 4.3-mile route from Campo de Ourique to Praça Martim Moniz, navigating tight turns and steep inclines as it passes some of Lisbon ’s most endearing attractions. Originally commissioned in the 1930s, these classic Remodelado trams were in fact enlisted for their ability to handle Lisbon’s hilly terrain. They can get painfully crowded—wait times can be outrageous in the high season—so catch an early ride (5:40 a.m. most weekdays, or 6:45 a.m. on Sundays) for unobstructed views of hilltop neighborhoods like Graça and the Alfama."

The tram is fun and worth it. If you go early you can get in the cue early and have a seat. We did and it was worth it. We sat through the entire journey watching the locals hop on and off as they clung on to the sides of the moving trams. It’s a fantastic way to see a good part of the city that is hills and more hills without having to manage walking them.

Tram 28 offers a unique and nostalgic way to see Lisbon's historic neighborhoods. While the experience can be marred by crowds and long waits, strategic planning—such as starting at less crowded stops and traveling during off-peak hours—can enhance your journey. For those seeking a more relaxed experience, walking the route might be a preferable alternative.

I love trains of any nature but specially trams. Whether it’s cable cars or funiculars, trams just give a unique experience. It can be crowded, rough hard ride and squeaky when turning but that’s what makes it real. Yes this is electric but it’s not that boring kind of electric vehicle. E28 is specially fun when ridden early when it’s relatively empty and with no traffics it zooms very fast around the city. Open the window and feel the breeze of Lisbon. I would ride It over and over again (just like the bullet train in Japan) because it just leaves awesome memories of Lisbon.

Traditional tram. From the square starting point I queued for more than 1 hour but I was able to sit. The tram stops around the corner and people just got on. I'd I knew I would have gone there. It was still a nice ride and I then walked on the same route do I could stop at the miradouros from where the panoramas are incredible. The fare was 3.40 euros which I paid with my credit card.

I didn’t have high expectations for Tram 28 it’s one of those things everyone talks about, so I felt like I had to try it. First came the queue: I waited for about an hour, and since I was far back, the first two trams were already full before I could even get on. I finally boarded the third one. Honestly, the ride wasn’t great at first. It felt cramped, uncomfortable, and even a bit scary with the sharp turns and bumpy ride. Later that night, around midnight, I decided to give it a second chance on a nearly empty tram and that experience was much more relaxed and enjoyable. Is it worth it? Not really, in my opinion, unless you're doing it just for the experience. If so, try it late at night to avoid the crowds. Also, you might get a similar vibe from other old trams like Tram 12 without the long wait.

You can take this tram anywhere in lisbon. You don’t have to wait in the queue on this stop. We did and wasted little bit of time. For example take it from cathedral and safe yourself time in the queue. Otherwise great experience. 3 stars because i don’t understand why it’s sending all tourist to this point. Contactless payment as well. Enjoy

The tram line 28 gives you an old-fashioned experience of Lisbon. You'll go up and down the city, observing numerous tourist spots. The tram line is also useful if you need to travel between some of the popular spots. Unfortunately, the service is not reliable. Some departures may be skipped. Once we had to wait for almost 30 minutes because two tram departures in a row were skipped. The tram is often delayed because of the traffic and big tourist crowds.

2 hours in line is not worth the hype... dont get me wrong, it's amazing that this tram is like 100 years old and still operating, but I didn't find value in waiting 2 hours in line for it. Each tram only seats like 15 people at a time, so the line moves excruciatingly slow. Then the tram stops at every stop, and people pile in to the point where you can't really move.
