About the site

How many pages does Awesome Lisbon have?
Around 29 at launch, across seven departments. See our News & Updates page for the latest count and what's been added most recently.
How often is the site updated?
At least once a week, usually two or three times. Places and Things to Do tend to grow fastest.
Do you accept paid placements or sponsored reviews?
No. See our About Us page for more on how the site is written and funded.
I found an error — how do I report it?
Use the contact page. We fact-check on publish, but Lisbon changes, and we'd rather fix a mistake fast than leave it live.
Can I suggest a guide you haven't written yet?
Yes — the contact page is the right place for that too. Neighbourhood and day-trip requests are especially useful for prioritising what we build next.

About visiting Lisbon

Is Lisbon expensive to visit?
It remains one of the more affordable capitals in Western Europe, though prices in the historic centre have risen noticeably in recent years. See our first-timer's guide for a rough daily budget.
How many days should I spend in Lisbon?
Three full days covers the essentials; four or five lets you add a day trip without feeling rushed. Full breakdown in our first time in Lisbon guide.
What's the best time of year to visit?
Late April to early June, or September to mid-October, for the best balance of weather, crowds and price. See our best time to visit guide for the full month-by-month breakdown.
