⛴️ Across the Tagus

Lisbon · One evening · 4 stops · 80% local · ~2.3 km walked (~3,000 steps) · relaxed pace

Ten minutes by ferry to the other bank — a cliff elevator, dinner on the quay's edge, and the whole city as your sunset backdrop.

♿ Terrain: easy. Ferry plus flat quay; the cliff is served by the Boca do Vento lift.

🛡 Safety: relaxed. Sleepy river town; last ferries run late and are safe.
