Discover one of Lisbon’s most underrated hidden gems — the Lisbon Tram Museum (Museu da Carris). Join Brent as he steps inside historic tram depots, explores beautifully restored vintage trams, and even gets behind the controls to pretend to be a tram driver!
You’ll learn surprising facts about Lisbon’s iconic yellow trams — including how the very first trams were pulled by horses! How did these old carriages managed Lisbon’s steep hills? Brent hops on and off multiple trams, checks out a classic double-decker bus, and shares fun bits of history along the way.
If you love travel, vintage transportation, or discovering overlooked spots in Lisbon, this is a must-watch.
