Lisbon and the Algarve

- Rick Steves' Europe Travel Guide © 2004 | We start in Lisbon, where salty sailors' quarters and wistful fado singers mix with ornate architecture to recall the glory days when Vasco da Gama and Magellan made Portugal a world power. Then on to the Algarve where we explore the Land's End of Europe - windy and historic Cape Sagres - before savoring pristine beaches and arm-wrestling octopuses in the sleepy fishing village of Salema. #ricksteves #ricksteveseurope #portugal

Thanks to Rick Steves, I retired in Portugal, where the cost of living is lower, the crime is lower, the food is better, the air is cleaner, the people are nicer, the architecture more interesting, the land beautiful. No snow!
I'm portuguese and I want some snow, please 🤷♀️
There is snow in the border regions close to Spain

Gotta love Rick Steves! 🙂
the most beautiful country in Europe, the people are way too nice and educated, the food is amazing, and the cities are gorgeous
@Brian Soomaroo Wow that's even better than watching Portugal. I'm going to quit my job and learn this hack that you speak of
For me, if I were to consider a retirement, Portugal is the best destination for it.

As I visited I could say Portugal is the best place to live in Europe!!! Good food😋Good people👍 Good weather!!!😍
The African ladies in their traditional,wardrobes looked exquisite. Much appreciated.
This is such a great intro to Lisben and the Argarve! Love the history and cultural tidbits.
Dies sind wunderschöne Sendungen. Habe schon viele Orte mit Ihnen bereist :-)
Vielen Dank!
Lagos in the Algarve is a must-see; quaint fishing towns and beaches like Ponta de Piedad or Benagil are incredible. Loved my time in Portugal and southern Spain and can't wait to head back to Spain from the US this summer!
you should know better Portugal - not only the south, giving the impression of being like the south of Spain...
🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹 lovely 👏

Ahh Portugal Magnificent Not just Lisbon Or the Algarve The Alentajano Alantajo Is amazing Where the Cork trees grow Pigs live in huge open fields and feed on acorns >>>The best Pork in the world The hills and mountains Of Monchice beggars belief . All and I mean all of Portugal is magnificent But its the Portuguese people that are the star attraction King Gentle family loving and would give you what they needed themselves The welcome you get is second to none

Great review and interesting comments.
Exquisite music accompanies great sites and commentaries!
Thanks Rick.
its so beautiful!
Hello there, how are you doing today?
Fantástico esse vídeo sobre Portugal Lisboa e algarve
Such a beautiful country.....
Excellent presentation on Portugal. Well done team!
Lisbon is a beautiful city.
Hello Marcia, how are you doing today?
Good program! I thoroughly enjoyed my four days in Lisboa. I visited and attended mass in the Se (Cathedral) of Lisboa and visited some other churches, but unfortunately not the two Rick went to. I'd also recommend the National Archaeology Museum that's connected to Mosteiro do Jeronimos. I especially liked it because it had native ancient Lusitanian artifacts; I don't go to Portugal to see artifacts I can see in their native lands or other museums around the world. I don't understand why all these travel shows do taxis though. The metro is a more rewarding, cheaper and authentic way of travelling, and I had no problem going anywhere in Lisboa using the metro (including close to the Gulbenkian Museum where Rick went to). Get out and mingle with the locals!
Beautiful City Santos-SP, Brazil 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇵🇹🇵🇹
I was taken to the Algarve as child in 1971, well before it was paved over. It looked to me like most people did not own cars, but got around on mopeds and donkey carts. Life was very sleepy and backwards. Away from the coast towards the interior there was nothing at all. 50% of the cars were VWs.
Thanks Rick for the video. I was watching a video on Lisbon but half way in I clicked on yours, which is more informative and interesting.
super video, love it, I will be there soon...
Thx guiding
Good job
This is such a great video guys thanks.Let's keep in touch
Meu amor Portugal!!!
uh
VERY BEAUTIFULL COUNTRY.
Nice vidio
Wine + ice cream?! Sold! When's the next flight in? 🍷🍦
CandyisAwesome86 it's because Port wine is a dessert wine. It's also stronger and gets you drunk quicker.
After coming back from Canada to Poland and finishing my University degree in Philosophy in 2011
I hitch hiked, couch surfed, and volunteered my way from the top of Portugal coast Afife all the way down to Sagres and than some. I planned to go there for two weeks but stayed 3 months, total cost 300 Euro.
I hope to go back there one day and buy some land, build some houses out of clay etc.
Thanks again Steve
Would love to go here one day soon, looks like a lovely place and also sunny, we hardly get good sun here in England :(
Hi. A cheap and good time to go: February half-term.
Another nice time to go: Easter holidays.
yheaaaa. ..still a lot to show about Portugal.
many other cities.
Porto, Braganza, Chaves, aveiro, Braga etc..etc..
I love youtube and the videos
about diferente countries are the best.
Beauty video and fantastic comment - thank you so much youtube us are the best always forever ...
Rick! I've been inspired by you, man. I went out and started making travel vids too.
Portugal the best food and beautiful ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
Tram 28 in Lisbon is a dream for anyone.
I'm portuguese and I never traveled in that tram
😜
Watching this, because Eurovision 2018 will be hosted in Lisbon. Wanna see what the city is like. :)
Brilliant video of Lagos... what a place!! I've also done a vid of Lagos, not quite a Spielberg production as good as this one but maybe one day
Fun fact: Portuguese LAGOS is where the name of the Nigerian LAGOS came from! The biggest city in Africa as it's roots in this small and lovely place. African Lagos was founded by Portuguese in the late 1400's!
You have got to remember even at 241 years old the USA is still in its infancy where Europe is thousands and thousands years old.
Keeping within the "age" subject.
Fun Fact: Lisbon is the second oldest capital in Europe, just behind Athens in Greece. And half a millennium (500) years older than Rome! It is also the ONLY European capital on the Atlantic!
It's ancient name "Olissipo" as the legend says was named for Ulysses, who founded the settlement after he left Troy to escape the Greek coalition. Mentioned also as "Olisippo" by Pliny "The Elder" and Olissipona by Greeks! ;-)

A magnificent documentary, many thanks, Mr. Rick
nice video good job #clapcla #lisbon
muito bom.
Hello there, how are you doing today?
Going to Lisbon and Algarve in 30 days
Same here, my first time, 10 days to see the country.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Very beautiful country Portugal...
By the way Rick it seems that writting was much older than we thought...Try to learn about Tartataria tablets in Romania....
dude, this is cool
I once saw a good documentary on TV about Portugal. It was saying that the Portuguese (the Porra Porras :-) ) have a yearning for their seafaring days. It was part of their culture, part of their identity.
Portugal also had a dictator, Salazar. As a result, the resulting government ruled until 1974. It also caused Portugal to be very isolated. So, Portuguese people from Angola and Mozambique knew much more about the outside world.
beautiful channel canal bonita
Dang looks good for 2004
You're looking at the tourists!
Exactly.
Beautiful!! Can someone tell where to find the background music from 4:45 to 5:15? It is so superb!!
Fantastic video regarding some of the history of Portugal. However, I’m a master historian and those in the medieval world did not believe that the earth was flat, that was clearly known and protested since the ancient time of Eratosthenes in the 3rd century BCE.
10:30 There seems to be a lot of dust on the figures
un pais muy hermoso a ver y buena comida no es una vida cara y hay para quien tiene dinero tambien y muy buena comunicacion guente que uno o el otro estuvo en europa en cada pais como emigrante en america y otros paises hablan frances corretamente ingles y te sientes como en casa estan a vuestro servicio no como en francia eres tu que le deves decir gracias al camariro aya son ellos que te dicen gracias guente muy humana y no interesada
RICKY STEVIE STEVES!!! U THE MAN CARALHO!!! 😎
love this channel
Claudia is so pretty 😍
Great Job When do you want to visit and learn about our tours?
Rick, where you say "viewpoint," I would say "vantage point." One could have various religious viewpoints, but a vantage point is where one is looking from, and that's it.
Lovely video. Fun fact: the plural of octopus is octopuses
Beoutiful.Lisboa.okay.Thenk you.Bye bye.
Poor octopus.🥲🥲🥲🐙

As part of a tour, they took us to CARRIAGES MUSEUM. i mean, it was interesting to see the development of CARRIAGES, but...I guess there are no Goya, Velazquez, Greco, Picasso From Portugal. It is house in another building now
We have better food. Better wine etc. All better in Portugal
Did you really want to find Goya or Velázquez pieces in a carriages museum??? Since when Goya or Velázquez made carriages????
And Porto, Guimarães, Braga, Viana do Castelo, Ponte de Lima, Vila Real, Chaves, Coimbra, Aveiro, Viseu, Leiria, Setubal, Evora, Beja?????
Manuel Pedro Santos ... Açores e Madeira também, mas pelo menos saiu de Lisboa. É melhor do que nada acho eu...
+Manuel Pedro Santos O nome do video e Lisboa e o Algarve...
Portugal is Lisbon, the rest is just landscape
Portugal is Lisbon, the rest is just landscape
Would love to see the crown jewels and precious stones and gold and mass amount of wealth they took from Sri Lanka.....
Hope you have a religious experience soon Brother 🙏🏽
Vai a Lisboa para beber Vinho do Porto...
Goes to Lisbon to drink Port Wine (Wine from OPorto)...
Portugal inicio las rutas marítimas a lo largo del continente africano.
España inició las rutas transoceanicas y Juan Sebastián Elcano español vasco , inicio y termino la primera vuelta al mundo, Magallanes no dio la vuelta al mundo le mataron en Asia.
