Hi sorry I don’t log in often. Take the tour for speed but it will cost more. We took a taxi to the monument over the bridge (2 sights for the price of one).

When you say "Lisbon main square" I think you mean Praca do Comercio.From here,you can walk to Cais do Sodre ferry terminal,it's less than 1km alongside the Tagus/Tejo river's bank.You have to take a boat to Cacilhas(the company that operate this route is Transtejo;it's an about 20 minutes trip,there are about 3-4 departures/hour).From Cacilhas you have to take bus line 101.The bus station is very close to the ferry terminal.At end of the line(after 20-25 min) is Cristo Rei sanctuary.
