Tourists regard Lisbon to be a "magnificent surprise", while locals deem it safest city in Europe.
Our member company in Portugal, Miltours, is pleased that a recent survey by Lisboa Tourism, found that over half of tourists considered the capital city to be a 'magnificent surprise'.
Nearly all the tourists (97%) were enchanted by the charms of the city and the region, and would recommend a visit to their friends and family.
Another survey of the region found that residents in Lisbon (together with those in Helsinki, Finland) felt the safest in Europe.

'7 world trade', which opened in December, is perched cloud-high-in-the-sky.
Beyond the soaring floor-to-ceiling windows is a giant's eye-view of the city; on a crystal clear day guests see from river to river with notable landmarks like the Brooklyn Bridge, Empire State Building, and the George Washington Bridge laid out 40 floors below the 2,853 square foot space.

'Rock Centre', located on the 7th floor of the French Building in the Channel Gardens of Rockefeller Center.
Offers the most dramatic outdoor views of midtown Manhattan and gives a unique perspective on St. Patrick's Cathedral and the soaring tower of 30 Rockefeller Plaza.
It is a uniquely private space in the middle of Manhattan with a perfectly groomed historical garden and a bright blue reflective pool and fountain.

230 Fifth Avenue
Gilded elevators open onto a penthouse cocktail den practically stretching to the horizon. The mirror and window-lined room looks like an '80s interpretation of the art deco era, with low-slung suede sofas in deep sunset hues and some of owner-art collector Steven Greenberg's 1940s modernist furnishings.
A chrome staircase leads to a sprawling rooftop like you've never seen before.
Almost 360 unobstructed degrees including a dead-on of the Empire State alongside breezy palm trees.
Deck capacity 10 - 800.
Has a large modern interior lounge décor floor to ceiling windows.

The impressive location of TOP OF THE ROCK™, 70 stories above midtown Manhattan, provides the most desirable New York City venue to host an important occasion.
The contemporary event room has a soaring 24 foot ceiling and 18 foot windows in addition to 2 adjacent outdoor viewing decks.
Step onto these glass protected decks and the party literally moves into the sky. The views extend up to 80 miles - from the Statue of Liberty and Brooklyn Bridge to Central Park and the Hudson and East Rivers.
