The telecabine, or cable car, that runs above the river's edge at Parque das Nacoes provides visitors with an uplifting panorama of the entire Nation's Park area and the wide estuary. The cabins glide lazily between two stations set either end of the park and the "flight' takes around 20 minutes to complete. Along the way, the bird's eye views take in the MEO Arena, the Oceanarium and the striking Vasco da Gama tower. Each cabin can easily accommodate a family and the experience adds a lofty dimension to any sojourn to this part of the city. For kids especially, the trip is a real adventure with the 360° views adding a suitable wow! factor to a day out by the river.

Lisbon Local Expert
- Things to Do with Kids: "Children under 6 travel free."
- Sightseeing: "After your "flight" why not nip into the hotel attached to the Vasco da Gama tower and order cake and coffee on the outside terrace."
- Best for Things to Do with Kids Because: This is the only cable car in the city, and one of the highest in mainland Portugal.
- Best for Sightseeing Because: The only cable car operation in the city, the views afforded from the cabins are wonderful and the experience quite memorable.
