Not sure which ticket to choose?
For a straightforward ride over the Tagus River, the standard digital ticket is the most efficient choice to bypass the physical ticket office. Travelers planning to explore the wider city should opt for the Lisbon Card or transport bundles, as these provide the necessary metro and bus access to reach the Parque das Nações district from the historic center.

4 things to know before your visit
- Entrance: The cable car operates between two stations: the South Station (near the Oceanário) and the North Station (near the Vasco da Gama Tower and Myriad Hotel). To minimize wait times, start your journey at the North Station, which is typically less crowded than the South end. While 'skip-the-line' tickets allow you to bypass the physical ticket office, all visitors must join the same boarding queue for the cabins. During peak June hours, especially around sunset, expect a 10-20 minute wait to board even with a pre-booked ticket, as the South station is the primary entry point for most visitors.
- Price: Official adult tickets for the Lisbon Cable Car (Telecabine Lisboa) are priced at €7.50 for a one-way trip and €9.50 for a round-trip as of June 2026. Reduced rates for children (ages 3–12) and seniors (65+) are available on-site, typically starting from €5.50, while infants under 3 ride for free. While the Lisboa Card offers a 10% discount at the counter, partner tickets like the €7.50 standard option allow you to bypass the ticket office queue and head directly to the boarding line with a digital voucher.
- Discounts: Infants aged 0–2 ride free of charge and do not require a pre-booked ticket or reservation. Reduced-price tickets are available for children (ages 3–12) and seniors (65+). The Lisboa Card provides a 10% discount on tickets purchased at the physical ticket office, but it does not grant free admission. Online tickets allow visitors to skip the ticket office queue and proceed directly to the boarding line at either the North (Torre Vasco da Gama) or South (Oceanário) station. No specific timed-entry reservation is required for free-entry visitors; they may board with their accompanying adult.
- Timing: Arrive early enough for security checks, ticket scanning and wayfinding.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to print my ticket or can I use my phone?
Digital tickets are fully accepted. You can show the QR code or voucher on your smartphone at either the North (Torre Vasco da Gama) or South (Oceanário) station to board.
Can I cancel or reschedule my cable car ticket?
Official tickets purchased at the booth are typically non-refundable. However, booking through partners like Tiqets or GetYourGuide often provides a 24-hour free cancellation window, which is recommended if your travel plans are flexible.
Is the Lisbon Cable Car included for free with the Lisboa Card?
No, the cable car is not free with the Lisboa Card. It typically offers a 10% discount on the fare, but this discount is usually only available when purchasing tickets in person at the ticket office, not for online bookings.
Are there specific time slots for the ride?
No, tickets are generally 'open' for the date selected. You can arrive at any time during operating hours (typically 11:00 AM to 6:00 PM or 8:00 PM depending on the season) and join the boarding queue.
Can I bring a stroller or wheelchair on the cable car?
Yes, the cabins are designed to be accessible. Both stations have ramps or elevators, and the cabins can accommodate wheelchairs and folded strollers, making it a very family-friendly attraction.
Who is eligible for free or reduced-price tickets?
Infants aged 0–2 ride for free. Reduced rates are available for children (ages 3–12) and seniors (65+). Be prepared to show a valid ID for age verification at the boarding gate.
What is the difference between a one-way and a round-trip ticket?
A one-way ticket is ideal if you want to travel from the Oceanarium to the Vasco da Gama Tower (or vice versa) and continue exploring on foot. A round-trip ticket allows you to return to your starting station, though you must disembark and re-board at the opposite end.
Does a 'skip-the-line' ticket avoid the boarding queue?
Online tickets allow you to skip the ticket office queue, which can be long on weekends. However, all visitors must still wait in the same boarding queue for the next available cabin.
