Is 4 nights in Lisbon enough?

With a longer stay, you'll be able to see all of Lisbon's most famous spots, and also fit in a day trip to nearby Cascais or Sintra. I spent 4 days in Lisbon on this trip because I had visited the city before, and I had already spent 2 nights in Sintra. Given this, 4 days in Lisbon was the perfect amount of time.

To get a well-rounded experience of Portugal, it makes sense to try to visit both places. Ideally, I'd recommend three or four nights in Lisbon (in order to do a day trip to Sintra) and two nights in Porto. On the shortest itinerary I would plan on two nights in each city. Fly into one city and out of the other.
