Almada

By boat

From Lisbon take the €1.20 ferry boat across the river Tagus (Tejo) to Cacilhas ferry terminal. The views are awesome and is the best way to witness Lisbon's beauty from afar.

By train

You can also get in by Fertagus train leaving from the Roma/Areeiro, Entrecampos, Sete Rios or Campolide stations towards Pragal. Here there are several buses taking you into town. This trip is also beautiful as you have the chance of crossing the 25 de Abril bridge over Tagus river with breathtaking views.

By bus

There are also the 152, 160, 176 and 260 TST buses running from Lisbon.

By car

And sure, you can always get in by car or taxi. If coming from Lisbon, just cross the bridge and get in, if coming from the South, get in the A2 and take the "Almada" exit. Easy as that...

By bus

Transportes Sul do Tejo offer a wide network of busses that run quite frequently between many places in the city.

By tram

Metro Transportes do Sul operates a tram with 3 lines, that connect several points in the city. A single ticket costs 0.85€ (you have to buy a card which costs 0.50€ but is rechargeable).

Almada has the best views over Lisbon. Just head towards the higher parts of the town, specially in the old part of the town.
