Lisbon, Portugal's vibrant capital, is wrapped around seven hillsides and overlooks picture-perfect panoramas of brightly coloured buildings, cobbled streets and the River Tejo. The city's airport, Lisbon International Airport (also known as Lisbon Humberto Delgado Airport or Lisbon Portela Airport), provides the gateway into Lisbon and is the largest airport in Portugal, located within the city limits. The airport has two runways and two terminals. Terminal 1 handles arrivals and international departures, while no-frills airlines operate cheap flights from Lisbon from Terminal 2. It has a range of on-site facilities include dining, shopping and duty-free, and parking within walking distance of the terminal.

Flights to Bristol from Lisbon may leave from either Terminal 1 or Terminal 2 of Lisbon International Airport. The airport is about six miles from the city centre. You can access the airport via the metro system by taking the red line and changing at Saldanha. The metro runs until 1am. There is also an Aerobus shuttle bus service 1 and 2.

Bristol is a city that appeals to visitors of all ages. By walking around the streets you can catch a glimpse of work by the famous and elusive Bristolian artist Banksy, visible all over the city.

Known as the UK's greenest city, acres of parklands are inviting to unwind in or enjoy a picnic. At the Harbourside, overlooking the River Avon, there is an assortment of waterfront cafes and bars, while a short walk north brings you to the old part of town, a lively area of markets, pubs and Georgian architecture.
