Lisbon is one of Europe's most captivating capital cities, with direct flights from Liverpool Airport. Plan your private transfer for your Lisbon city break.
Lisbon is one of Europe's most captivating and rewarding capital cities — a place of steep hills, pastel-coloured buildings, vintage trams, outstanding food and a melancholy musical tradition called fado. Direct flights from Liverpool John Lennon Airport to Lisbon make it one of the most accessible European city break destinations from the north-west of England.
About Lisbon
Lisbon sits on the northern bank of the Tagus estuary, where the river meets the Atlantic. The city is built on seven hills, and much of the pleasure of exploring it comes from climbing between the different neighbourhoods — the Alfama, the oldest district, with its Moorish castle and labyrinthine streets; the Bairro Alto, the bohemian neighbourhood of fado bars and restaurants; the elegant Chiado, with its bookshops and cafés; and the grand Pombaline Baixa, rebuilt after the 1755 earthquake.
Belém, to the west of the city centre, is where the great Portuguese explorers set sail. The Jerónimos Monastery and the Tower of Belém are UNESCO World Heritage Sites, and the Belém Cultural Centre is one of Portugal's most important contemporary art venues.
The food scene in Lisbon is exceptional. Pastéis de nata (custard tarts) from the Pastéis de Belém bakery are a pilgrimage for food lovers. The city's restaurants range from traditional tascas serving grilled fish and bacalhau to innovative contemporary Portuguese cuisine.
Why people fly to Lisbon
Lisbon has become one of Europe's most popular city break destinations in recent years, attracting visitors with its combination of history, culture, food, nightlife and a relatively affordable cost of living compared to other Western European capitals. The city is compact enough to explore on foot and by tram, and the surrounding region — Sintra, Cascais, the Setúbal Peninsula — offers excellent day trips.
Lisbon Airport (LIS) is located just 7 kilometres from the city centre.
