Ride Tram 28 through the old city

The number 28 tram is a Lisbon institution: a vintage yellow streetcar that rattles and screeches its way through the oldest, most atmospheric neighbourhoods, climbing hills no normal vehicle could manage. It's effectively a sightseeing tour for the price of a public transport fare, passing the cathedral, the castle district, and countless postcard views. Go early or late to dodge the worst crowds, and hold on tight. We'll tell you where to hop on to get a seat and what to look out for along the way.
