I recommend visiting early in the morning, around 9 AM, to avoid the big crowds. It's way more peaceful, and you can really soak in the stunning architecture.

If you're up for a snack, check out the kiosks in the square. I scored some cheap pastries and coffee for under 5 euros. Total win!

Bring a portable charger! I didn't, and my phone died while snapping pics. The place is so photogenic; you'll definitely want your camera ready.

If you're tight on budget, grab a snack from a local bakery rather than eating at the touristy cafes nearby. It’s tastier and way cheaper, trust me!

I suggest getting there early, like around 9 AM, to avoid the crowds. It’s way more peaceful to explore the architecture without all the people blocking your selfies!

I think it’s worth spending some time in the nearby Maritime Museum. It has awesome exhibits, and it’s just a short walk away – makes for a great combo outing!

My advice is to check the opening times before you go. Sometimes they change seasonally, and you don’t wanna miss out on visiting the tower itself!

If you're looking to save a bit, check for any local discount cards or combined tickets for nearby attractions. They can save you a bit of cash!

Plan your visit on a weekday if you can. It's way less crowded and you can enjoy the atmosphere without the hustle and bustle.

Grab a local snack or pastel de nata nearby before you go. Enjoying a treat while taking in the views makes the visit even better!

Try to visit during sunrise or sunset for stunning views and great lighting for photos. It's less crowded too!

Don’t miss the interactive exhibits; they’re really fun and informative. I actually found them more interesting than some of the traditional displays!

Brandon March 27, 2025

Plan to spend at least 3-4 hours here. The exhibits are super engaging and you don’t want to rush through them. Take your time!

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.

Keep an eye out for the Sunday mass schedule. I stumbled onto a service and it added a unique touch to the visit - just be ready for it to get busy.

Grab a coffee at one of the nearby cafes before your visit... There's nothing like enjoying a cuppa while soaking in that Lisbon vibe!

Patricia November 11, 2024

If you want to beat the crowds, I suggest going right when it opens at 9 AM. You can take some great photos without people in the way!

Make sure to wear comfortable shoes; there are a lot of cobblestone steps leading up to the cathedral. I definitely underestimated that and ended up with sore feet!

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.

I recommend visiting on a weekday, preferably in the morning, around 10 am. The crowds were way smaller then, and I got to enjoy the galleries without feeling rushed.

Don't miss the beautiful gardens outside. I think they are just as beautiful as the museum’s collection. Grab a coffee and take a stroll to relax a bit

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!
