Nibble on some chocolate while strolling along the aquamarine Aare River, do some shopping under the romantic arcades of the Old Town and sample a traditional Berner Platte—a smorgasbord of smoked meats.

You won’t get more scenic than Lisbon as this city spills up, down and all around a cluster of dramatic hills. Rickety-yet-romantic old trams run through the oldest sections of town leading you to cultural and gastronomical delights. You can’t leave town without having a decadent egg tart or having a sip of Portuguese wine—some of the most underrated in Europe.
