You will visit the Borges Chiado in Lisbon on your own. It is convenient to purchase a Lisbon pass, which gives you free access to public transportation and several museums. In addition, the pass allows you to get discounts at a number of stores and attractions. Some sights in Lisbon that are definitely worth visiting are: Torre Belém, Ponte 25 de Abril and Castelo São Jorge. What is also definitely recommended is to tour Lisbon with the old streetcar 2.
