You probably know by now how much I love Lisbon, but at these prices hopefully you will to! I found weekend flights on Sunday morning the 3rd of September returning Tuesday night the 5th of September for just €114 from Dublin. This gives you three full days to enjoy the city.
Lisbon is very easy to navigate too, but if you don’t fancy walking it, there are delightful old trams and tuk tuks available to help you explore this great city.
