Travelers should, however, remain vigilant about petty crimes such as pickpocketing and bag snatching, which are particularly common in tourist hotspots within Lisbon and Porto. Crowded areas, public transportation—including trams 15, 25, and 28 in Lisbon—hotel lobbies, restaurants, and beaches are known locations where tourists may be targeted. Simple preventative measures like keeping personal belongings secure, not displaying valuables, and being aware of your surroundings can greatly reduce the risk of becoming a victim.
For those driving in Portugal, vehicle break-ins are frequently reported, especially in cars displaying rental stickers or foreign license plates. It's recommended to always lock your vehicle, keep windows closed, and avoid leaving valuables in plain sight or unattended in your car. Whenever possible, park in secure areas and consider not renting vehicles with easily recognizable rental car markings.
Although violent crime is rare, physical and sexual assaults have occurred in busy tourist zones, bars, and nightclubs, particularly in Lisbon, Porto, and the Algarve. To maximize safety, listeners are encouraged to travel in groups, especially at night, and always stay alert to their surroundings. Choosing official taxis or public transportation is recommended, and it’s prudent to wear seatbelts, avoid overcrowded vehicles, and familiarize yourself with local traffic laws if driving. An International Driving Permit is required alongside a US-issued driver’s license, and it is important to carry the correct documentation at all times to comply with local regulations.
If an incident does occur, Portugal provides dedicated tourist police stations in Lisbon, Porto, Cascais, and Praia da Rocha in Portimão where assistance can be sought. The universal emergency number in Portugal is 112, connecting callers to fire, medical, and police services.
No new health-related travel advisories or notable geopolitical events impacting travel to Portugal have been reported. The general advice for all international travel remains valid: check with your healthcare provider for recommended vaccinations before departure, carry necessary documentation, and ensure you have adequate travel insurance.
With these basic safety steps and situational awareness, visitors can look forward to enjoying Portugal’s rich culture, vibrant cities, beautiful coastlines, and welcoming people, making it one of Europe’s most desirable travel destinations in 2025.
