Lisbon is incredible — but easy to misjudge if you’re not prepared.

❌ 1. Underestimating the Hills
You’ll get tired faster than expected.
👉 Use transport when needed
❌ 2. Trying to Walk Everywhere
👉 Mix walking with Uber
❌ 3. Skipping Viewpoints
Lisbon’s magic is in the views.
❌ 4. Overplanning
Lisbon is better when explored slowly
❌ 5. Not Allowing Time to Return
Always leave buffer time.
❤️ Final Thought
Keep it simple — Lisbon rewards a relaxed approach.
