Self catering attic flat

Posted by pitchshifter 7 September 2008

Charming little one bedroom attic flat in centre of Lisbon. Located in the historic Lapa neighborhood within walking distance of all main tourist sights. Good selection of local cafes and restaurants in the area. Spent 4 nights here in this summer and was much nicer and better value than a hotel. A great base for spending some time exploring this beautiful city.

Colares Velho Restaurant

Posted by Sintra 29 July 2008

Situated in Colares Velho, overlooking the church square and bandstand is a beautifully restored 18th century grocery store converted into a restaurant and tea room (Salão de chá).

A great place for a romantic dinner. We had a wonderful meal, the staff were so friendly and with Fredo playing the guitar, what more could you ask for?

Marlin boat tours

Posted by marlin22 15 July 2008

It's a small boat operator in Lisbon with intimate boats carrying up to 7 people and very cheap. Lovely music on board and superb service by the skipper.

We tried a Old Lisbon tour and it was very nice. Then the guy suggested us to have dinner in the Atira-te ao Rio restaurant in the south side of Lisbon near the bridge and we went on the boat and had a great meal and came back on the boat to Alcantara. If you don't take the tour, you should try the restaurant and you can go by boat as well.

www.marlinboattours.com, +351 919275509. Departures from Alcantara Docs and Belem, but better to call first.
