Along the way Samantha offers up practical information and real travel tips - things you wish were covered in the travel guides! She'll give viewers a feel for the essence of these fascinating cities through her travel experiences, plus she'll share tips on where to stay, what to see, where to eat, shop, and play. This isn't just a great hotel - this is your Passport to Europe! Episode 11: Lisbon, Portugal...it's Europe's smallest capital city and one whose past is riddled with tales of adventure and trade. The city of Lisbon launched the Age of Discovery - its seaport is where famous explorers set sail in search of unknown lands and riches. Yet today it doesn't receive the attention that other European cities like Paris, Rome, or Madrid get. Travel expert Samantha Brown will introduce us to present-day Lisbon - a city still inspired by adventure and a sense of vision. Samantha's list of "must sees" - a local artist's studio that creates handmade tiles as they did centuries ago, stepping into a famous monastery that serves up the sweetest pastries you've ever tasted, enjoying a cup of bica in a landmark Lisbon coffee house, listening to the haunting sounds of fado, a style of music inspired with such emotion that no other nation has duplicated it.
