Your travel itinerary could look like...

Day 1

Castelo de S. Jorge Close-Up

You’ve arrived in beautiful Lisbon! After your journey, you’ll want to spend the remainder of your day getting familiar with this stunning coastal city. Jump onboard one of the open-top sightseeing buses and be taken on a breath-taking tour of Lisbon’s cobbled streets and beauty spots, or stretch your legs with a customised walking tour for your group.

End your first day by exploring the ancient cobbled streets on foot, winding your way past street vendors until you reach São Jorge Castle. It’s a bit of a climb, but the cinematic views from the top are completely worth it! Group photo, anyone?

Day 2

Bird eye view of Benfica Stadium in Lisbon

Start your day with a visit to the Money Museum, which – you guessed it – deals with all things money. Your students will learn all about its origins, the use of bartering, how the genealogy of money has developed through the ages and much more.

After enjoying the museum’s collections of precious coins, fast-forward to the present day and head over to Euronext. In what will be a first-time experience for many of your students, you’ll be given a behind-the-scenes look at the activities of Lisbon’s Stock Exchange.

Grab a bite to eat at one of the city’s lively markets or cafes, then start your afternoon with a self-guided tour of the impressive Benfica Stadium. Any football fanatics amongst your group will be ecstatic as you look around the playing grounds of Portugal’s most successful football team, but the sheer size of this stadium is sure to impress everyone! A tour will provide you with an overview of the logistics and operational challenges that come with hosting events on this scale.

Day 3

People looking at big aquarium

Is there a sweeter start to your final day than a tour of the Pastéis de Belém pastry factory? Learn all about the steps involved in producing the city’s famous custard tarts, ending (of course) with a taste of this delicious delicacy. Yum!

If you have time, head over to the Parques das Nacões and visit the Lisbon Oceanarium, claimed to be one of the largest and finest aquariums in Europe. If your group are more into the science and tech side of things, opt for the Pavilhão de Conhecimento instead – a Science and Technology museum that’s just 400m from the Oceanarium. Full of interactive exhibits, there should be something to engage every one of your students until it’s finally time to head home… although be sure to grab another Pastel de Belém for the return journey!
