Barcelona vs Lisbon September 2026

I’m a 53-year-old single male planning a 12-13 day solo trip in September 2026.

For those who have been to both Barcelona and Lisbon:

• Which city did you enjoy more?
• Which city felt better for someone in their 50s?
• Which city had the better social atmosphere and more mature crowd?
• If you could only choose one for a September trip, which would it be and why?

Looking for honest opinions and first-hand experiences.
