Top Observation Decks in Portugal

Grab the combined ticket with the nearby Convento do Carmo... It saved me a few bucks, and I got to see both places without shelling out full price

If you’re planning on staying for a while, grab a comfy spot early – it gets crowded fast, especially on weekends.

I suggest going around sunset if you can, the views are just breathtaking and you get that golden hour magic on the skyline.

I recommend chatting with the staff; they have some great local tips and might even offer insider info on their next special event.

You might want to skip the indoor seating unless you really need the AC; the terrace has the best vibe and views, especially in the evening!

Get there early, like around 8 AM, if you want to enjoy the view without the crowds! I made the mistake of going during the afternoon and barely found a spot to sit.

If you're planning to grab a snack or drink, there's a kiosk on site that’s pretty reasonably priced. I splurged at a nearby café for a drink and wish I hadn’t!

You gotta take a walk around the gardens before or after checking out the view! I found some nice spots to chill and snap pics without all the hustle.

parking can be a pain around the area (trust me, i circled like three times!), so consider using public transport or just walking if you’re near a subway station.

I think if you can, visit on a weekday. I went on a Saturday, and it was packed. More relaxed atmosphere on weekdays, plus better chances of snagging a good table!

If you're planning to grab a coffee or snack afterwards, check out the nearby food stalls in the park. They're way better priced than the café in the tower!

I suggest visiting at sunset around 6 PM for the best views and to snap some stunning photos. The golden hour really brings out the beauty of the skyline!

My advice is to check if there are any special events or exhibitions happening during your visit. We stumbled upon an art installation that made our trip way more enjoyable!

I think it's a smart move to buy your ticket online beforehand. The line was super long, and we saved a good amount of time skipping it!
