Pro tips to help you make a pick

About Oceanario Lisboa

Oceanário Lisboa is split into two levels, with each level subdivided into two blocks that fit together almost squarely. The four sections stand for the four oceans—the Atlantic, Pacific, Indian, and Antarctic. Observe each ocean from a different vantage point as you make your way around the Oceanarium's top floor. As you descend, you'll be able to see the oceans from a fish's perspective. Large fish, sharks, rays, and five million litres of saltwater inhabit the enormous central aquarium in the centre part!

Everything beautiful, nothing wrong with it, maybe the neighborhood is a little too industrial and perhaps deserves maintenance because the sidewalks are completely deformed by tree roots.

The 2-day ticket is good value. Lots of options to choose the sightseeing points. The Belem tour is highly recommended, the Modern Lisbon tour includes entry to the aquarium as a big plus (without having to queue), but it takes a very long time through corners of Lisbon that are not very special. Stops are not announced, you have to pay attention yourself and activate the stop in good time. The funicular and streetcar can only be used if you have a very tight daily schedule. In short: the offer is very large and good. The announcements over the headphones are difficult to understand.

The Old Lisbon bus tour was incredible, great for seeing the city and saving your legs as their are heaps of steep inclines. The Modern Lisbon bus tour, was also interesting. At the beginning you start by working your way around the rights streets, very exciting. Then you make stops at the Tile Musuem, which was a highlight, and the Oceanarium, a great place to visit in the heat of the day. The rest of the tour was interesting for modern architecture. Overall an amazing experience! Note that on Mondays that most if not all, Museum's and historic sights are closed. So if you are staying for more than a couple of days, time your booking.
