Lisbon & Porto Highlights 6 Days

Most flights from the United States are overnight, so arrival in Lisbon is typically in the morning.

Upon arrival at Lisbon Airport (LIS), you will be met by a private transfer and taken to your selected hotel. Since arrival is usually early, immediate check-in may not be available, as standard international hotel check-in time is around 2:00 PM. You may leave your luggage at the hotel, go out for a meal, and return later for check-in.

The rest of the day is free to rest after the flight. In the evening, you can enjoy a relaxed walk and explore the central Chiado district.
