This aquarium was fantastic! I loved the flow of it, where there's one naturtal pathway that leads…read moreyou from the start to the finish. We started at the top floor through a special exhibit which was beautiful, and then worked our way down. You'll pass penguins and waterfalls, you can go over a wooden bridge through a little tropical feeling forest, and onto the playful otters. Then you'll continue around passing the giant central tank. As you descend, you'll get additional looks at the tank and different viewpoints like watching the penguins dive below the water. This is the first aquarium to capture my son's delight, but I also think he's just turned the corner on appreciating animals (or at least sea life). Our toddler daughter also enjoyed it very much! We all did. We don't typically book into zoos or aquariums unless they are top in the world, and this aquarium was very highly rated, so I was very happy we came. It was a perfect attraction for our family, but I also would have been happy I came even if this was a trip without kids. With kids? A slam dunk. You can add a gondola ride onto your aquarium ticket which we did. We booked the roundtrip gondola and our kids enjoyed the experience. I wouldn't say it's a must do, but it's not terribly expensive and if you have kids, they'll like this experience too. If you're up for a packed day, you can do the science museum which is next door as well. I read it's a very interactive hands on museum but we had to get back that day. The aquarium is a half day experience. I think we there for 2.5 hours.

I've been to many aquariums, but this was easily one of my favorite experiences. It's not…read moreoverwhelming in size, but it is incredibly well-designed and spacious, which made the visit feel very relaxed. The standout is definitely the massive central aquarium--it's stunning and keeps the kids completely engaged as you move through the levels. It was also great to see that the animals appear to be in excellent condition and the habitats are pristine. If you are in Lisbon with children, this is a must-see. It's a high-quality, manageable outing that the whole family will actually enjoy!

Today we took a full day small group tour to Évora, led by the incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and…read morefunny Nuno. The sites, of course, were fascinating, but it was truly Nuno's insight into each stop that made the tour. He also made wonderful conversation on the way there and back, patiently answering my many questions about Portuguese history & contemporary life in Lisbon. Highly recommend!

The Full-Day Best of Sintra and Cascais Small-Group Tour with Nunu was a great tour…read more Nunu was patient, knowledgeable, and friendly. He handled our tour with grace and professionalism! Starting out, we went to Sintra but unlike other tours we walked the grounds to get to Peña Palace vice getting dumped off with the herd at the main gate. A truly relaxing experience, the grounds were calm and peaceful, the walk was inclined but easy for a group of seasoned adults. The visit to the palace was vivid with color and informative. Next stop we visit the nearby town with ample time to catch lunch at one of many eateries and/or shop at the many stores. Be sure to get a Pastéis de Nata before you depart! A scenic drive through the hills as you travel to the furthest western point in the European Continent, this stop with the green hills, crashing waves, and lighthouse was amazing! A final drive to the beach line you will enter Cascais where you will have time to explore the tourist beach haven or visit the free museum on its history. Whether you want a good drink or another Pastéis de Nata you will enjoy the wind and the water in this town before ending back at you hotel or air BnB. A great trip to plan into you schedule and do ask for Nunu, he was the icing on the cake of this tour!
