Your journey from Albufeira to Lisbon will take you from Portugalâs southern coast to its western coast. There are many culturally significant sites to see on the way that will make you appreciate and understand Portugal so much more than if you just headed straight to the capital. This trip has a distance of 155 miles (250 km) and goes by quickly! Make these stops to break up the travel and stretch your legs:
BacalhĂŽa Winery
BacalhĂŽa Winery is a must-visit for wine enthusiasts, and easy to get to thanks to Daytrip's private car service. Situated at the BacalhĂŽa Palace, this winery is a gem for those who appreciate fine wine. Dating back to the 15th century, it is one of Portugal's oldest wineries. Having a private driver allows you to savor a couple of glasses during the wine tasting before continuing your journey.
Silves Castle
Another uniquely Portuguese site is Silves Castle, constructed in the 8th century by the Moors. This sandstone fortress stands upon the remnants of an ancient Lusitanian stronghold, documented as early as 201 BCE. Inside its crimson sandstone walls, you can see the excellent construction of the ancient towers, ramparts, and archaeological relics that have stood the test of time. Perched atop a hill, the castle offers sweeping vistas (perfect for family photos!) and a place to reflect on the various conquests that shaped modern Portugal.
Take your time on this part of your journey, and at the end, youâll be able to enjoy all Lisbon has to offer!
About Lisbon
The etymology of "Lisbon," or Lisboa in Portuguese, traces back to ancient origins. It likely came from the Phoenician term "Allis Ubbo," or "safe harbor." Youâll see on a map that it is the perfect name for Lisbon, which sits right at the Tagus River delta as it spills into the Atlantic Ocean. Throughout history, Lisbon has been both a sanctuary and a conquest target for various civilizations. As your vacation takes a turn from Portugalâs southern coast to the capital, youâll fall in love with Lisbonâs charm and see why it was so desired through the centuries.
Lisbon in a Nutshell
Lisbon's rich cultural tapestry spans over 3,000 years, characterized by a succession of conquests by major European powers and religions. Initially established by the Phoenicians around 1200 BC, it thrived as the Roman outpost Olissippo before centuries of Moorish rule. The Christian conquest in the 12th century brought an era of maritime exploration and global influence during the Age of Discovery.
This Age of Discovery unfolded during the 15th and 16th centuries, marked by unparalleled prosperity and influence driven by maritime expeditions. Portugal colonized vast distances, reaching as far as modern-day India, Africa, and Brazil. This period propelled Lisbonâs wealth and turned Lisbon into a pivotal trade hub where products from all around the world entered its ports. While this feels like the distant past, the result of Portugalâs Age of Discovery is felt today. For example, Brazil, which boasts a population of 210 million Portuguese speakers, dwarfs Portugal's 10 million speakers today.
Lisbon has a dynamic art scene with galleries, street art, and avant-garde theaters. Modern architectural icons like the MAAT museum and Vasco da Gama Bridge underscore Lisbon's progressive outlook and position as a beacon of modernity.
From Albufeira to Lisbon: Travel tips
So youâve decided the next leg of your vacation will be from Albufeira to Lisbon, but how should you prepare? Follow these travel tips for the best possible experience!
Have the Essentials Close By
Donât get caught without your sunscreen, water bottle, fully-charged camera, and sturdy walking shoes for your excursions. Portugal is pretty sunny most of the year, so staying hydrated and sun protection are a must. You donât want to be late for a tour because youâre rummaging around in a suitcase trying to find something!
Take your Time to Explore
Your ride from Albufeira to Lisbon will bring you through the heart of southern Portugal. When you ride with Daytrip, you have the chance to break up the travel time and enrich your trip with sightseeing stops at some of the best destinations in Portugal!
Don't miss the ancient walled city of Ăvora. The entire old town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site built around an ancient Roman temple! Because of its compact size, you can easily add to your Portuguese adventure by walking between examples of Romanesque, Gothic, Manueline, Renaissance, and Baroque architecture.
Hire a Private Driver for Convenience
A private driver with Daytrip will upgrade your travel day to an integral part of your vacation. The flexibility and convenience of Daytrip outweigh a regular rental car service, and you can see sites in southern Portugal that you may otherwise miss. Your driver will speak English and Portuguese and help you with your luggage.
How to get from Albufeira to Lisbon
If you're still deciding how to get from Albufeira to Lisbon, you have several transportation options. Planes and high-speed trains are the fastest, the bus is the lowest cost, and driving is the best for cultural enrichment and traveling at your own pace. Read below to pick whatâs best for you and your familyâs vacation goals and needs.
Albufeira to Lisbon with a Private Driver from Daytrip
Driving from Albufeira to Lisbon takes about 2.5 to 3 hours via the A2 motorway without any stops (but you will want to stop and see the sites as you go!). The route offers scenic views of the Alentejo region with plenty of ancient places youâll be amazed are still standing. For example, take a detour off of the A2 to Evora and see the Chapel of Bones, with decorations made of the bones of 5,000 people to commemorate their deaths in the 16th century. And as if that wasnât enough, the whole old town of Evora is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
As you get closer to Lisbon, youâll be glad you didnât go with renting a car and driving yourself, as parking in the city is difficult and returning the rental car will take time away from your time to see Lisbon. Daytrip drivers even help with door-to-door luggage service and youâll be able to start sightseeing right away.
Albufeira to Lisbon via Bus
Rede Expressos operates direct bus services from Albufeira to Lisbon multiple times a day. The journey takes approximately 2 hours and 45 minutes. Buses are a great option if you are concerned about price. Tickets can be purchased online or at the bus station in Albufeira. The arrival point in Lisbon is the Sete Rios bus terminal.
Albufeira to Lisbon via Train
You can take a high-speed train from Albufeira to Lisbon several times a day via the Alfa Pendular service. Portugalâs southern countryside will whizz by your window for about 2.5 hours until you arrive at one of Lisbonâs two train stations: the Santa ApolĂłnia (old town) or Oriente (city center).
Albufeira to Lisbon via Plane
TAP has direct 50-minute flights from Albufeiraâs Faro airport to Lisbonâs Humberto Delgado airport at least once a day. Flights on weekdays cost about 80-100 EUR, and weekend flights can jump to 200-300 EUR before adding luggage. Once you arrive in Lisbon, you can easily access the city center via taxi, metro, or bus.
Things to do when you get to Lisbon
Once your driver gets you right to your accommodation and helps you with your luggage, itâs time to explore all the things to do when you get to Lisbon. You'll instantly feel the dynamic energy of this contemporary capital (and your legs will definitely feel the hills!) all while preserving its rich Iberian heritage. It was definitely a good idea to make the journey from Albufeira to Lisbon!
Lisbonâs Old Town- The Alfama District
Explore Lisbon's Alfama District by boarding the iconic Tram 28 after settling into your accommodation. This is a quintessential Lisbon experience, so have your camera ready. This tram route winds through historic streets and is a tour guide of sorts. It will take you straight to the Estrela Basilica's doorstep, a magnificent example of Lisbon's architectural grandeur.
From there, wander through Alfama's maze-like streets, imagining the district's rich history since Moorish times. Discover historic landmarks like Lisbon Cathedral and remnants of ancient city walls. Stop by a boutique for Portuguese tiles and a bakery for the classic dessert pasteis de nata, or Portuguese custard tarts. Once youâve had a snack, find St. George's Castle. This castle dates back over two millennia to Roman origins. Witnessing the city's cultural evolution, from Berber conquerors to Reconquista knights, the castle's ramparts offer stunning views of Lisbon's urban sprawl below.
Lisbonâs Promenade- The Belem District
Next, walk down from Alfama towards the shores of the Belem district, with serene beaches to rest your feet after walking over all those hills. You can also see the Torre de Belem, an imposing fortress that has watched over the Tagus River's entrance since the 16th century. It truly represents all Lisbon has stood for over the centuries. Its architecture encompasses Roman, Moorish, Mudejar, and Gothic influences, and it is a symbol of the city's maritime might.
Lisbonâs Artistic Legacy
Remember those beautiful tiles you saw all over the old town and for sale in little shops? These wonderful mementos of your stay in Portugal are a part of the national cultural heritage. Don't miss the opportunity to explore the National Tile Museum, which celebrates Portugal's expertise in ceramic craftsmanship. Here, you'll encounter stunning azulejos and discover the rich history of tile-making, tracing its roots back to Moorish influences.
Art lovers will find plenty to admire at the National Museum of Ancient Art, featuring Renaissance paintings, Baroque decorations, and ancient Roman relics, offering a glimpse into Portugal's vibrant artistic legacy. Similarly, the Museu do Oriente stands as a poignant testament to Portugal's imperial history, showcasing artifacts from its former colonies and trading outposts.
When is the best time to visit Lisbon
The best time to visit Portugal in general is typically during the spring (March to May) and fall (September to October) months when the weather is pleasant, and the tourist crowds are smaller compared to the peak summer season. These times offer comfortable temperatures for exploring the countryâs attractions without the intense heat or heavy rainfall often experienced in summer and winter. But do not fear, you will find things to do on your trip from Albufeira to Lisbon no matter the time of year!
Many events in Lisbon are bi-annual. In spring, enjoy the IndieLisboa- International Independent Film Festival and the Lisbon Half Marathon. If youâre visiting in the fall, you can participate in very similar events like the DocLisboa Documentary Film Festival and the full Lisbon Marathon.

âJag anvĂ€nde denna tjĂ€nst för en transfer frĂ„n Split i Kroatien till Perast i Montenegro. Min upplevelse var exceptionell. Min chaufför Bojan var hjĂ€lpsam, informativ och sĂ„g till att min resa var bekvĂ€m och trevlig. Jag rekommenderar starkt denna tjĂ€nst.â
âVi var mycket nöjda med kvaliteten pĂ„ den service vi fick frĂ„n Day Trip. Vi hade tvĂ„ resor med Day Trip: den 31 augusti frĂ„n Aten till Lefkada och den 7 september frĂ„n Lefkada tillbaka till Aten. BĂ„da resorna inkluderade stopp vid natursköna platser i Grekland. BĂ„da förarna var utmĂ€rkta och tillmötesgĂ„ende. Vi vill dock sĂ€rskilt uppmĂ€rksamma Panos Peppas, som var vĂ„r förare frĂ„n Lefkada till Aten. Panos var otroligt trevlig och behaglig och levererade enastĂ„ende kundservice, som inkluderade att han tog hand om allt vĂ„rt bagage, gav oss kallt vatten under hela resan, försĂ„g oss med proteinbars, gav oss tryckt material om Korintkanalen (ett av de natursköna stoppen), tog reda pĂ„ och gav oss terminal- och gateinformation för vĂ„rt flyg hem, samt gav oss ett recept pĂ„ tzatziki.â

âVi Ă€lskar verkligen det hĂ€r företaget och har anvĂ€nt det mĂ„nga gĂ„nger genom Ă„ren för att ta oss frĂ„n A till B utan krĂ„nglet med att hyra bil sjĂ€lva. UtmĂ€rkta chaufförer varje gĂ„ng. Effektiva och professionella. Det Ă€r vĂ€rt varenda krona, och vi rekommenderar Ă€rligt Day Trip till alla. Deras femstjĂ€rniga betyg Ă€r vĂ€lförtjĂ€nt.â
âVi reste frĂ„n NĂŒrnberg till MĂŒnchen i en vacker Audi. Chauffören hĂ€mtade oss pĂ„ vĂ„rt hotell exakt vid den begĂ€rda tiden. Han fick oss till MĂŒnchen i god tid för vĂ„r nĂ€sta tur. Chauffören sĂ„g till att vi hade det bekvĂ€mt.â
âGonzalo frĂ„n Daytrip var vĂ„r chaufför och han var helt fantastisk. Han gjorde allt för att hitta oss eftersom vĂ„r mobiltĂ€ckning var dĂ„lig. Han vĂ€ntade tĂ„lmodigt i lobbyn tills vi kom, sĂ„ att han kunde köra oss frĂ„n Tulum Dreams Resort till vĂ„rt andra hotell i CancĂșn, en och en halv timme bort nĂ€ra flygplatsen inför vĂ„r hemresa. Han var artig, respektfull och vĂ€nlig. Han sĂ„g till att vi hade det bekvĂ€mt under hela resan. Snabb och effektiv. Jag rekommenderar detta företag eftersom det inte Ă€r lĂ€tt eller billigt att hitta en enkelresa frĂ„n Tulum till CancĂșn, och detta företag erbjuder en utmĂ€rkt tjĂ€nst till ett bra pris. Jag kommer definitivt att anvĂ€nda dem igen nĂ€r jag Ă€r i omrĂ„det CancĂșn/Tulum. Tack DayTrip och Gonzalo.â
âMarianna hĂ€mtade oss för att köra oss frĂ„n Heraklion till Chania. VĂ€dret var hemskt, och pĂ„ grund av detta kom Marianna nĂ„gra minuter sent. Hon kontaktade mig för att meddela det. Marianna bor i Chania och gjorde resan vĂ€ldigt intressant genom att berĂ€tta om lokala sevĂ€rdheter och saker att göra i Chania. Marianna Ă€r en sĂ€ker förare och vi kĂ€nde oss alla trygga med bĂ„de hastigheten och hur bra hon körde i det kraftiga regnet. Hon Ă€r en underbar person och talar flytande engelska. Vi rekommenderar verkligen Daytrip, och om du Ă€r i Heraklion eller Chania, se till att frĂ„ga efter Marianna.â
âJag anvĂ€nde tjĂ€nsten för att Ă„ka frĂ„n Luxor till Hurghada, Egypten. Ahmed H var vĂ„r chaufför och han var perfekt. Bilen var ny, ren, han hade vatten och snacks för oss och anpassade sig efter vĂ„ra stopp. Fantastisk service frĂ„n honom, jag rekommenderar det varmt.â
âVi anvĂ€nde Daytrip för tvĂ„ resor i Mexiko, och bĂ„da var fantastiska. SĂ„ bekvĂ€mt, och vi anlĂ€nde till varje destination i perfekt tid. BĂ„da förarna var otroliga, och vi kĂ€nde oss vĂ€ldigt trygga. En av vĂ„ra förare, Miguel, spelade dessutom den bĂ€sta musiken! Vi kommer definitivt att anvĂ€nda Daytrip pĂ„ vĂ„r nĂ€sta resa till Mexiko.â

âWe cannot say enough good things about MyDayTripâs services. Our group of 6 adults booked 4 trips in Portugal and Spain. All 4 English speaking drivers were punctual, courteous, professional and personable. The vehicles were spacious and clean. We received door-to-door service for the pre-arranged prices and felt comfortable and safe on all trips. Our drivers stopped for comfort rests when we asked. Prior to each trip we received emails confirming the trip, along with the driverâs name, phone number and picture. Our drivers were Miguel (Lisbon to Albufeira), Carlos (Albufeira to Seville), Francisco (Seville to Granada) and Rafael (Granada to Madrid).
We highly recommend MyDayTripâs services and will certainly use it again.â
âWe enjoyed our relaxing drive from Lisbon Airport to Albufeira. It was a great idea after a flight to be able to sit back, enjoy the view and arrive to our apartment with no stress or delays. The trains are great too but having to wait for the next train would delay our arrival so having the option for a driver was perfect! We received professional, friendly and good value. I recommend you consider Day Trip for your next vacation.â
