Lisbon Hen Do

Why have your hen do in Lisbon?

Maximise offers a huge variety of things to do during your Lisbon hen do, whether you and the girls are looking to make the most of the city, or get involved in some more traditional hen party activities. 

With the stunning River Tagus running through the city, you can take to the water and explore Lisbon on a Private Yacht Cruise. If you’d prefer to see the city sights on land, why not take a Hummer Limo Tour around Lisbon instead?

For a slightly more raucous time during your Lisbon hen party, we also offer Nude Life Drawing Classes and Burlesque Dancing lessons. Then again, if that all sounds like too much, you could always take it easy with a relaxing Beach Day before you head out for a night on the town.

Nightlife during your Lisbon Hen Weekend

Blessed with year-round warm weather, much of Lisbon’s nightlife is best enjoyed outdoors, on boats, and in open-air clubs. You'll also find a number of bars offering street-side service, which lets customers get the most of the weather and the cheap booze.

There are plenty of bars, clubs, and restaurants all over Lisbon, but the best and biggest can be found in the areas of Bairro Alto, Santos, and Cais do Sodré. With Maximise, you can book a Guided Bar Crawl across all of the best Lisbon hen do hotspots, saving you from winding up anywhere you don’t like the look of.

The Bairro Alto starts to get busy around 11pm, with partygoers often spilling onto the street. The al fresco atmosphere is a great way to mingle with locals, and enjoy the great weather instead of being crammed inside. From there, the party continues all night long at Cais do Sodré, which boasts bars and clubs playing all kinds of music.

More ideas for your Lisbon Hen party

Many airlines now fly direct from London every day, making it easier and cheaper than ever to get to Lisbon for your hen weekend. British Airways, Easyjet, Ryanair, and Tap Air Portugal will all get you there in under three hours, but be sure to just stick to carry-on luggage, otherwise it can end up getting a bit pricey!

Once there, Maximise always recommends opting for Return Airport Transfers, which saves your group having to worry about taxis or public transport immediately after the plane has landed. Once you're a little more settled in the city, you can get around easily thanks to Lisbon’s metro, bus, and tram systems. Along with the typical taxis, Uber, and Cabify, you'll also find Tuk-Tuks scattered throughout the city.

The best time to book your hen weekend in Lisbon is definitely August, when temperatures rarely dip below 30 degrees, often reaching 40 degrees—perfect for topping up your tans! However, the weather in Lisbon is at its best at any time between April and September.
