Is the Hop On Hop Off Lisbon Bus Worth It for First-Time Visitors?
Honestly, yeah — I think it’s totally worth it if it’s your first time in Lisbon. I used it on my first trip and it made getting around way easier, especially since the city’s pretty spread out and super hilly in some areas.
It stops at all the main places you’d want to see like Belém, the Jerónimos Monastery, Praça do Comércio, and some great viewpoints. Plus, you can just chill and listen to the audio guide while riding — which is nice when you're tired from walking.
I also found this list of things to do in Lisbon really helpful when I was planning what stops to get off. So yeah, if you don’t feel like figuring out the metro or walking uphill all day, the hop-on hop-off bus is a solid way to explore without stress.
