You can count on Rick Steves to tell you what you really need to know when traveling in Lisbon.

In this compact guide, Rick Steves covers the best of Lisbon, including tips on arrival, orientation, and transportation. Relax at an Art Nouveau cafe, take a trolley tour of the colorful hills, wander tangled medieval streets and museums of ancient art, or sip delicious port with locals at an authentic fado bar. You'll get firsthand advice on the best sights and experiences, and the maps and self-guided tours will ensure you make the most of your trip. More than just reviews and directions, a Rick Steves Snapshot guide is a tour guide in your pocket.

Rick Steves Snapshot guides consist of excerpted chapters from Rick Steves European country guidebooks. Snapshot guides are a great choice for travelers visiting a specific city or region, rather than multiple European destinations. These slim guides offer all of Rick's up-to-date advice on what sights are worth your time and money. They include good-value hotel and restaurant recommendations, with no introductory information (such as overall trip planning, when to go, and travel practicalities).
