The Calouste Gulbenkian Museum is among the winners of the Experts’ Choice Award 2017 run by TripExpert, an online platform based in New York that ranks hotels, restaurants and tourism attractions based upon over a million evaluations made via the main travel media outlets. Thus, this award recognises the best tourist attractions worldwide based upon the opinions of journalists and professional travel writers as well as leading publications within the tourism field.

Sources such as the Let’s Go, Michelin Guide, Lonely Planet and Frommer’s travel guides attribute the Calouste Gulbenkian Museum one of the best classifications among the attractions in Lisbon featured on the TripExpert.com website. Let’s Go, for example, describes the museum as follows: “Filled with many temporary exhibits, the museum is like a box of chocolates—in the sense that it’s awesome, and you would pay good money to enjoy it.”

Within its status as one of the leading Lisbon attractions, the Calouste Gulbenkian Museum also received the Best of Lisbon prize from TripExpert. “Visitors may have every confidence that this is one of the things that is most worth doing in Lisbon”, guaranteed the website’s management. The exclusive classification approach implemented by this platform also takes into consideration professional evaluations given by tour guides, magazines, newspapers and other respectable sources and thereby providing an alternative to the travel sites that make recourse to visitor and tourist evaluations.
