We had a wonderful stay in Carolina's place. Everything was perfect. The flat is beautiful, and in the best position to access everything.
For us the highlight, was the viewpoint 2 mins away from the flat. Fantastic views over river, watching the sun go down, drinks from the small bar on the left side, listening to the local musicians singing and playing in their band while the sun sets. Just perfect.
Fab information from host on what to do and what to see. Our advice would be to use google reviews to find the best, and most up to date reviews on places to eat and drink.
On a recommendation from a friend we had a fantastic meal at Bastardos, in Chiado. The best meal we had by far. The Mill, 5 mins away does fab breakfast and brunch, but often has a queue for tables. There are so many places to eat and drink, just do your research.
We did a Secret Food tour that we booked from the UK before we went, was well worth it. You see/eat/drink and so much more than we expected.
Another tip, to get around, is using the 2 free lifts to get up to the castle, had no idea these existed before going. You can also use the Station and all its exits and escalators to get to the Upper and Down areas of Lisbon.
What ever you do in Lisbon, you'll have the best time, and coming home to Carolinas relaxing home is exactly what you need after a long day of walking!
