Essentials

  • Low‑floor entries and ramps on most modern buses.
  • Ask staff for step‑free museum routes.
  • Avoid steep interior Alfama lanes — use viewpoints and rim stops.

Museum Notes

  • Jerónimos: Accessible entrances; cloister access may vary — ask staff.
  • MAAT: Elevators available; rooftop access has gentle grades.
  • Oceanário: Wide corridors; staff helpful during peak hours.

Boat and Tram

  • Yellow Boat: Outdoor decks with seating; check ramp access at boarding.
  • Heritage trams: Not always accessible — confirm before planning.

Use the bus to bridge hills, then hop off near viewpoints to minimize steep climbs.
