Tram 28E visits most of the old neighborhoods of Lisbon. It's an up and down ride with views of the Tagus River, the Castle, and the hilly streets of the Alfama, Chiado, and Baixa. We were careful and did not have our pockets picked. As a matter of fact, there was no commotion on the rides in either direction. Bring... More

When heading towards Jardim de Estrela, get off one stop before the gardens and walk uphill. Just after the stop there is a pastry shop (Pasteleria Estrela) immediately after the tram stop. Great espresso and custard tart for only €1.30! More

Must do when you visit Lisbon. Buy a one day pass. I rode twice in 24 hours. Gives a great sense of Lisbon More

ideal opportunity to see the old Alfama area which is so unique. Our driver was so nice. Unfortunately on our trip, there was a problem with the first tram and we had a tram jam!! There were 4 or 5 trams lined up awaiting mechanical assistance which came and we were off again very quickly.. More

Every time the tram #28 is a unique experience for the entire family - sort of Cable Car experience in Europe with the vintage cars winding through the narrow streets, where cars, pedestrians, painters with ladders on the rails are constant obstacles of the yellow carriage. Fortunately the conductors have nerves of steel. More

We spent a 3 days week-end in Lisbon, middle of May. Our visited where supported by The city guide of Petit Futé, and advice on the Tram 28E was mentionned in the top 10 to do.
