One of Europe’s coolest cities, Lisbon, just may be the perfect city break destination. Perhaps start with a short ride on a tram, like the Elevador da Bica, or visit the Aquarium Vasco de Gama which has been around over 100 years. Their famous ‘bacalhau’ is a taste not to be missed if you like fish as Lisbon has great restaurants in abundance. Don’t forget to enjoy time in the Baixa Pombalina, the historic heart of the city and not forgetting Chiado for those looking for a lively street atmosphere.
