When should I take Tram 28?

Ride the tram early (or late) in the day, to avoid the mid-day crowds. Board the tram at Martim Moniz (or Campo Ourique), as there is a better chance of getting a seat. Always be wary of pickpockets (please see later section). Ride the entire route, as there is so much to see.
