Crusty, rickety old Lisbon is a jumbled and hilly collection of neighborhoods laced together by Rice-A-Roni trams and funiculars. Of course, there’s lots of tourism (as Lisbon has become quite trendy). But as you’ll see in this little clip, if you venture out just a little, you can enjoy a vibrant and memorable slice of Lisbon life. Join me for 80 seconds of giddy funicular fun in Portugal’s capital. | Rick Steves

Lisbon, built with the riches of Portugal's New World discoveries, has a rustic charm. In this episode, we remember great navigators, eat lots of cod, enjoy pastries hot out of the oven, stroll the city's back lanes and its reinvigorated waterfront, marvel at an exquisite church built with spice taxes, and enjoy some soulful fado music. Then we side-trip to Sintra to explore the fanciful castles of Portuguese royalty and climb hilltop ramparts with grand views. | Rick Steves' Europe

Lisbon has a special joie de vivre (or “alegria de viver” here in Portugal). Ever since I was a backpacking student, the Miradouro de Santa Luzia viewpoint has enthralled me…not just for the view of Lisbon’s romantic Alfama quarter but for the embrace-life-with-gusto vibe that mixes it up with antique blue azulejos tiles and dripping bougainvillea flowers. Old timers play cards while romantic couples strum their guitars and each other’s hair... and I grab a shady corner to savor the moment. | Ri

Watch Now: Monday Night Travel — Food Tours Across Europe with Rick Steves Last night, 7,000 households joined my big Monday Night Travel party — and together, we savored my favorite food-tour moments on a nibble-fest across Europe. Munching our way from Lisbon to Athens to Reykjavik was a lot of fun. But if you missed the party, you can still pour yourself some Ouzo (licorice-flavored Greek firewater) and enjoy the recording right here — or check out this (and other past MNT events) anytime at

Europe has some amazing festivals (which I highlight in my public television special “Rick Steves’ European Festivals”) — but to be honest, I don’t build my itineraries around them. While festivals serve as a kind of swizzle stick to any cultural cocktail, they also upend normalcy, making my guidebook research more challenging. The restaurants are jammed... the streets are sticky with spilled beer... and with my demanding research schedule, I need to keep battering my ram through whatever slice
