Quick answer
Lisbon rewards walkable, viewpoint-heavy itineraries with long lunches and late dinners. A strong 4–6 day plan covers Alfama, Baixa, Belém, a miradouro circuit, and optionally Cascais or Sintra as a day trip.
Trip Planner builds a day-by-day Lisbon itinerary with real places, map pins, weather context, and budget estimates — then lets you refine it in chat until it feels like your trip.
4–6 days
April–June and September–October for mild weather; summer is lively but hotter and busier.
How to plan Lisbon well
- Build days around hills and tram corridors
- Reserve one full food day (markets + tascas)
- Add Sintra or Cascais if you have 5+ days
- Evenings work best for miradouros and soft light

Plan Lisbon with AILisbon planning FAQ
Is Lisbon walkable for a city break?+
Yes, but hills are real. Group activities by neighborhood and use trams or metro between clusters to keep the plan realistic.
Should I add Sintra to a Lisbon itinerary?+
If you have 5+ days, yes — plan Sintra as a full day with an early start so you are not rushing palaces at closing time.
