LISBON LIFT OFF
A Portugal Getaway...
APRIL 7 - 12, 2026
Welcome to the "Lisbon Lift Off" travel adventure! Travel Stamp Junkees would like to invite you to join them on this once-in-a-lifetime experience to Lisbon. Lisbon will greet us with sun-soaked hills, pastel-colored buildings, and the nostalgic rattle of yellow trams weaving through cobbled streets. And as the sun sets, the city comes alive with rooftop cocktails, seafood feasts by the Tagus River, and the buzz of Bairro Alto's nightlife.
Lisbon is great because it blends old-world charm with a cool, creative energy you can feel in every neighborhood. The city's historic architecture, hilltop views, and iconic trams give it a timeless feel, while its food scene, street art, and nightlife make it feel fresh and modern. It's also affordable, walkable, and full of sunshine, with mild weather most of the year. Add in the warmth of the locals and the nearby beaches, and Lisbon becomes a city that's both relaxing and endlessly inspiring. Let's enjoy this amazing city and other cities as we take ourselves on a PORTUGAL GETAWAY!!!

Do not forget to taste Sintra’s delicious queijada (tartlet, not included), the specialty of the city. In the afternoon, drive to the most westernmost point in Europe at Cabo da Roca. Sitting at 150 meters above the sea, Cabo da Roca played an important part in defending Lisbon's harbour.
