Take a journey between the river and the sky with your ticket on the Nations Park Gondola Lift cable car with these ticket. Inaugurated in May 1998, for the International Exposition of Lisbon (EXPO’98), a ride on the Telecabine de Lisboa has become a must-do attraction when visiting the city.

Beginning from the estuary of the Tagus River, a few meters from the riverfront, you'll step on board to admire panoramic views of the Nations Park from above.

Soar over 1230 meters and up to 30 meters high to observe sights including the Oceanarium, the Portugal Pavilion, the towers of St. Gabriel and St. Raphael, the Atlantic Pavilion (Meo Arena), the Vasco da Gama Tower (My Riad hotel) and the Vasco da Gama Bridge.

Was leuke ervaring . Je gaat zo op een leuke manier richting de oceanium . Niet duur maar erg leuk

Er was niet veel te zien als gebouwen en de zee heel jsmmer

Good experience but the weather was awful - wet, rainy and high winds so the gondola was swinging quite a bit

Beautiful view of the lake on the one side and the city on the other. Much enjoyable little ride indeed!

Getting in a ski type lift to go up river. Only view is of a road bridge far away. Reallly not worth the money or effort to get there to be honest. Desolate built up urban position that is nothing to look at. Would not return.
