- Walking vs private car — distances and traffic feel different by neighborhood (Alfama, Baixa, Belém).
- Ticket strategy — timed entries for headline sights should be booked early in peak months (Mar–Jun & Sep–Oct).
- Food & energy — tell the guide about kids, elders, allergies and preferred meal length.
