Day by day
Day 1: Arrival in Lisbon. Sintra is a train ride away, and there the colourful Pena Palace towers on a rock in the forest. It looks like something from a fairy tale, ideal for children who love towers and battlements. The paths in the park lead uphill, so you should arrive rested and choose a sling instead of a pushchair.
Day 2: Oceanário de Lisboa. The morning belongs to the Castelo de São Jorge: Moorish walls, towers to climb and peacocks in the courtyard that children follow with curiosity. Then it goes on to the Oceanário, where sharks, rays and penguins swim behind large panes. The tanks are indoors and suit well as a retreat when the heat increases.
Day 3: LX Factory. An old factory complex with workshops, bookshops and murals: the LX Factory under the big bridge is a relaxed place for a stroll. Children watch craftspeople, leaf through picture books and find room to run. For lunch, snacks in the courtyard are enough, a long restaurant visit is not necessary.
Day 4: Jerónimos Monastery. In Belém the Mosteiro dos Jerónimos rises with its stone ropes and shells, and the courtyard invites wonder. Afterwards take a pastel de nata down to the river. Late in the day the route leads to the Miradouro de Santa Luzia in the Alfama, where you look out over the Tagus in the shade of the pergola.
Day 5: Miradouro de São Pedro de Alcântara. The Miradouro de São Pedro de Alcântara in the Bairro Alto is a landscaped terrace with a fountain and a view as far as the castle. The garden is wide enough for a small picnic, and children can sit on the walls. A small funicular leads uphill, which saves energy and is fun for primary-school children.
Day 6: Miradouro da Senhora do Monte. Stones without a roof: the Carmo Museum shows the arches of a Gothic church that collapsed in the earthquake, and children understand the history at once. Afterwards you head up to the Miradouro da Senhora do Monte, a viewpoint in the city, where benches and a clear view let the day end soothingly.
Day 7: Farewell to Lisbon. The Palácio Nacional da Ajuda is a neoclassical palace where rooms still seem furnished as the royal family used them. A short tour is enough, and then there is time for the nearby botanical garden. From there the way to the airport is straightforward, so you can leave without haste.
