Who This Itinerary Is For

This itinerary is for you if:

  • It’s your first time in Lisbon

  • You prefer walkable neighborhoods + local culture over checklist tourism
  • You want a plan that’s easy to adapt based on energy, weather, or interests

If you only have two days — this works. If you have more time, it expands naturally.
