The ride on tram 28 is a great way to see some of the sites in Lisboa. However, the tram was overcrowded most of the time. The nice thing is that you can pay with the 24 hour metro card, making hopping off when it gets overcrowded a possibility.
Once we had found where to get the 6 euro day pass to the metro ,buses and trams ( from the Metro ticket machine) it was the best value trip ever. Mixing with the locals that also use the trams we enjoyed a trip of around 50 minutes each way . We had no trouble but the many warnings of...

We could not get a seat and the ride was bumpy, go when it's not busy (not sure when this would be) otherwise would recommend just strolling around instead. Also we were strongly warned to be on guard for pick pockets on this tram, so beware.

It's a tram ride. I'd rather walk and not have a billion tourists swing their backpacks in my face every 5 minutes. So in the future I'll just take pictures when it drives by.
We really enjoyed riding the tram from the area near the ocean and City Hall up to Saint George's castle. When we boarded the tram continuing in the same direction again we expected it to turn around at some point and head back down hill. However, when it reached the point to turnaround, it stopped and we were ordered to...
