Lisbon

Lisbon charms Gulf families with the pastel facades along its steep hillside streets, the yellow trams climbing toward the Alfama district, and the wide river view from the waterfront near Belem. Many visitors treat Lisbon as one stop on a wider look at the Iberian Peninsula, since the city connects onward toward Spain. Mild weather through much of the year makes the hilly old town comfortable to explore slowly on foot, with cafes tucked along the way for a rest.

At present this page lists the Lisbon to Madrid train tickets for families continuing their trip into Spain after their stay in the Portuguese capital. A short WhatsApp conversation with Haqqi Tours settles the ticket, with the price written out in Arabic before the family commits to paying.
