Lisbon voted best destination

  • 27 September, 22

Travelbook, Germany’s largest digital travel publication, has chosen Lisbon as the best destination in the “cities” category for its “positive development” in the area of sustainability and for its “many attractions and activities”.

“It is always difficult to reach a decision when the nominees are cities like New York, Barcelona, Tel Aviv, Singapore or Lisbon. In the end, the decision was based on the criteria we had chosen, such as sustainability, cleanliness and safety at the destination”, Nuno Alves, editor-in-chief of Travelbook, told Lusa.

Travelbook presented, for the first time, the “Travelbook Award” to six different destinations, in a ceremony held in Frankfurt.

The editor-in-chief of Travelbook said he still has no doubts that the award that highlights Lisbon as the best city as a tourist destination “will contribute to receiving more tourists from Germany”.

“There were good arguments that led Lisbon to win, for example, positive development in the area of sustainability, whether ecological or social. In addition, the Portuguese capital offers many attractions and activities, not only in the city, but also in the surroundings,” he pointed out.

The nominations were made by the readers of the online travel portal, the decision was made by a jury.
