FAQ's
What routes are included in the ticket?
The ticket includes access to two main routes: Belém Lisbon and Modern Lisbon. The Belém route covers historic landmarks such as Jerónimos Monastery, Belém Tower, and Rossio Square. The Modern Lisbon route focuses on contemporary areas, including the Oceanarium, Vasco da Gama Bridge, and shopping districts. You can switch between the two routes freely during your ticket’s validity period, making it easy to explore both the historic and modern sides of Lisbon without buying separate passes.
How long is the ticket valid once activated?
You can choose between a 24-hour or 48-hour ticket. The countdown begins the moment you first validate your pass on board. For example, if you start at 2:00 PM, a 24-hour ticket will be valid until 2:00 PM the next day. The same rule applies for 48 hours, giving you two full days to explore. This flexible timing allows you to decide when to start your journey, ensuring you get the most value from your ticket.
Are the buses wheelchair accessible?
Yes, most of the hop-on hop-off buses are wheelchair accessible, with ramps and dedicated spaces for mobility aids. However, due to Lisbon’s hilly terrain and narrow streets, accessibility at some stops may be limited. It’s recommended to check in advance if the specific stops you want to visit are suitable for wheelchair users. The bus staff are also trained to assist passengers, ensuring a safe and comfortable boarding experience.
What languages are available on the audio guide?
The onboard audio guide is available in multiple languages, usually including English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, and Portuguese. Simply plug in your provided headphones and select your preferred language. The commentary not only highlights key historical facts but also shares local stories, cultural insights, and practical tips. This makes the journey both informative and enjoyable, helping you appreciate Lisbon’s landmarks in more depth.
Does the ticket include entry to attractions?
The ticket itself does not include entry to attractions like the Oceanarium or Jerónimos Monastery. However, it offers discounts at select museums, restaurants, and cultural sites.

The flexibility of the hop-on hop-off system means you can decide which attractions to enter and pay only for the ones that interest you.
