Lisboa Card in a nutshell

Variety of cards

The Lisbon Card is designed to make your Lisbon exploration seamless and cost-effective. Available in 24-hour, 48-hour, and 72-hour variants, this all-inclusive pass grants you free entry to 39+ top attractions, unlimited access to public transport, and exclusive discounts on tours, shops, and restaurants.

Type of Lisbon Cards

Unlike some destinations with multiple pass options, Lisbon keeps it simple with one primary tourist pass – the Lisbon Card, which includes:

  • Free admission to major attractions (Belém Tower, Jerónimos Monastery, Lisbon Cathedral, and more).
  • Unlimited rides on buses, trams, metro, funiculars, and trains.
  • Discounts on tours, river cruises, and dining.

Is the Lisbon Card ideal for you?

The Lisbon Card is great for travelers who want to explore Lisbon’s top attractions while using public transport frequently. If you plan to visit multiple museums (like Jerónimos Monastery or Belém Tower), ride trams and buses often, or take day trips to Sintra/Cascais, the card saves you time and money. It’s perfect for first-time visitors, culture lovers, and those who prefer hassle-free sightseeing.

How to use your city card

After buying the Lisbon Card online, pick up your physical card at an official collection point using your voucher and ID. Activate it by writing your name, date, and time on the card. The validity period starts from your first use on public transport or at an attraction.

Why buy the Lisboa Card?

Skip the lines & maximize your time

The Lisbon Card grants you priority access to Lisbon's busiest attractions like Jerónimos Monastery and Belém Tower. No more wasting precious vacation time in ticket queues - walk right in and start exploring immediately.

Stress-free transportation across the city

Forget about figuring out fares or buying individual tickets. Your card covers unlimited rides on trams, buses, metro, and even trains to Sintra/Cascais, making it effortless to zip between attractions

Substantial savings on must-see attractions

After just 2-3 major attractions, the card pays for itself. But the real value comes from visiting additional museums and landmarks you might otherwise skip due to entrance fees.

Customizable to your travel style

Whether you're a fast-paced sightseer or prefer leisurely exploration, choose from 24/48/72-hour validity. The card adapts to your schedule, not the other way around.
