Does the treasure hunt cost extra on top of museum entry?

No. On Saturdays the museum entry ticket covers it. The museum only adds €1 per participant for the weekday version.

Does my kid need to speak Portuguese?

It runs in Portuguese, and the hunt is built on riddles, codes and secret messages, so kids who read Portuguese get the most out of it.

About

Mapa das Comunicações turns the Museu das Comunicações into a treasure hunt. Each family gets a secret mission and a map, then takes on orientation challenges through the museum's permanent exhibitions, from the past to the future of communications. Along the way, kids crack riddles, codes and secret messages tied to the post, telecommunications, submarine cables and Portugal's maritime expansion. It suits school-age kids who like puzzles and finding things.
