Traveling to Portugal (Lisbon and Sagres) in a few days for a week long trip with my wife and 3 kids (5, 3 and 2 yrs old). Both swamped with work so have done almost no planning. Any suggestions on fun family friendly activities and/or restaurants? TIA!

Take a free walking tour in Lisbon - was so fun and shows you all around. Go to sintra for a day too. So cool.

Take a tuk tuk tour in Lisbon. Super easy and good for that age group.

Do you have a hotel? Martinhal Chiado / Chicado is phenomenal if not and totally catered towards kids. Regardless, see about Creche and babysitting so you can have some mom and dad time!

Strollers are really hard to use on cobblestones. We brought a hiking backpack and used it every day for our 18mo. Idk how that would work with 3 kids, but a double stroller is not the ticket.

Time out market is a great food option. Very casual but you can get some of the best food in the city in a really low key environment and they also do takeaway, so we’d put baby down and eat after

Lots of parks all around, enjoy them!

We loved the 28 tram ride but not sure where that’s at given the accident a few months ago.

Eat pastel de nata

Sintra was cool, but honestly a LOT as a day trip with a kid. Also, the bus that goes to the top is really windy and jerky and gave our kid motion sickness. So we started with puke all over us all. Also, you have to buy tickets in advance and it was hard to plan the time out with kids (flexibility is key) so I might skip. Plenty to do in Lisbon otherwise.

River cruise is cool! Plan to take buses or walk because you can’t do tyktuk/ taxi due to car seats and you won’t want to drive

We enjoyed walking and cafes. All the food we had (especially breakfast) was great.

The old castle is very cool, and there are cats and peacocks which our daughter loved.

Beyond that, echoing chat gpt and also every travel family blogger has been to Lisbon so check them for ideas

My advice, use the babysitters. They were amazing during the day. My daughter had the best time at kids club.

I love using viator for myself and my clients to book tours with and find fun things to do. There are plenty of activities to choose from. Here are links for
