The Museum of Art, Architecture and Technology
8.6
My advice is to visit during weekdays if you can. The crowd is way lighter, making it easier to explore and appreciate the art.
If you're looking to save some cash, try to get your tickets online rather than at the door. It helps skip the lines and sometimes offers discounts.
Maritime Museum
8.1
Don’t rush through the exhibits. I thought 1-2 hours was enough, but I ended up staying longer because there’s so much fascinating stuff!
Make sure to wear comfy shoes! There’s a lot of walking, and I regretted wearing my fancy sneakers that pinched my feet.
Museum of Kalust Gulbenkyan
8.1
My advice is to buy the combo ticket online. It saved me some cash compared to buying individual tickets, and I skipped the line!
I suggest checking out the temporary exhibitions first since they rotate often. I ended up loving one I wouldn’t have seen if I didn't go there first!
Azulejo Museum
7.4
The National Coach Museum
7.1
I suggest visiting on a weekday, especially in the morning around 10 AM when it’s less crowded. I went on a Sunday and it felt rushed with all the groups. You'll appreciate the details way more when it's quiet.
My advice is to take advantage of the audio guide. It gives you a deeper understanding of the coaches and the royal history. I skipped it at first, but I regretted that later because it really added to the experience
National Carriage Museum
7.1
Parking can be a pain nearby, so I'd recommend taking public transport. The tram ride there is actually pretty fun and picturesque!
Pavilion of Knowledge
6.5
My advice is to check if there are any special events happening. I stumbled upon a cool demo that made my visit so much more fun!
National Museum of Ancient Art
6.1
My advice is to grab a coffee at the café before you start. The views from there are amazing and it gives you a nice break after roaming through the galleries!
Museum of Modern and New Art Berardo
5.2
Make sure to check the calendar for any temporary exhibitions! I found out about a timed event only when I arrived, and it was totally worth it.
Bring a water bottle and some snacks! The café can be pricey, and it's nice to take a break without spending too much
Fado Museum
4
If you're planning to spend more time in the area, grab lunch at a nearby cafe before heading to the museum. It makes for a much more relaxed visit without feeling rushed.
