Whole place and most of the palaces specially Péna was magnificent, but the only thing (not a complain) was : bus ticketing and I paid HONESTLY 3x for ticket: 1 to go to Péna, 1 to go up in front of Péna, same day again 1 to get back to Train station. The most annoying were those food&beverage automaat: water automat didn't work, sandwich machine took my money BUT GAVE NO SANDWICH😳

Your Experience

Journey through the skies of Lisbon, Portugal, on the city’s pride - the Telecabine Cable Car, also called the Gandola Lift! The Nations Park Cable Car was inaugurated in March 1998 as part of the International Exposition of Lisbon. Being the only attraction of its kind in Lisbon, the aerial journey offers a magnificent view of the river, towers, monuments, and more from above. The aerial lift is owned by the Telecabine Lisboa company, which maintains and operates it.

Explore The City From Above

Your ride will begin at either the North or South Station of Passeio das Tágides. Once you arrive, you can board one of the 40 cabins, with each having room for 7 other passengers. Before you do, don’t miss the opportunity to click a snapshot! The trip will take a total of 8 to 12 minutes and carries you across 1230 meters over the splendid sights of Lisbon city.

On the ride, you will get a good look at the Oceanarium, the old Vasco de Gama Tower (now known as the My Riad Hotel), and the second-longest bridge in Europe - the Vasco da Gama Bridge. As you move over the Tagus river, you will also witness the Portugal Pavilion, St. Gabriel and St. Raphael towers, and the Atlantic Pavilion (or Meo Arena).

Known for its ancient streets with modern street art, the old 'City of Spies,' the Telecabine Cable Car offers a 360-degree view of Lisbon that is hard to beat! The towers and buildings complement the backdrop of the riverways and skies perfectly, thus creating a memorable scenery for tourists.
