Search for “Lisbon” in this bowl and you’ll find a ton of recs. If you’ll have time, I recommend going to Porto too. Lisbon is a pretty safe city overall. Alfama district was my favorite.

I would stay in Alfama, Bairro Alto, or the area between the Praça do Comercio and Rossio train station. All very safe and by a lot of things.
For day trips Sintra is a common one which is worth it. Food wise got to Manteigaria - get a Pastel de Nata or 5, it's the best tasting things you will ever have. Lucindas is a great place for lunch or dinner, not touristy mostly locals. As Bifanas do Afonso has the best Bifanas which is a traditional Portuguese sandwich. It's a small meal or large snack. I love going to Lisbon it's my favorite city. I'm a male, but my girlfriend has traveled there alone and felt very safe. Portugal is known for having a lot of English speakers too which makes it easier to get around.
