Additional Information
Take part in an enchanting boat journey on the Tagus River and experience Lisbon from a unique perspective. Be captivated by its vibrant hues as they mingle with the hillside before meeting the river.
The voyage kicks off from the Santo Amaro’s Dock, leading us to the Praça do Comércio—among the world’s most spectacular squares. This vantage point offers stunning views of Lisbon’s historic districts: Chiado, Baixa, Castelo, and Alfama. Following this, the boat will ferry us to the river’s other side, offering a panoramic sight of Lisbon. We will venture near the Cristo Rei on the southern shore, pass under the bridge, and drift towards Belém to witness its iconic tower and the Monument of Discoveries.
Should you opt for the twilight tour, you’ll have the privilege of basking in the mesmerising sunset mid-voyage. A selection of drinks and a cheese and ham platter will be available throughout the boat trip to enhance your enjoyment.

Perfect relaxing time - The crew was friendly and the ride was so peaceful and lovely. They told us the history of some of the buildings and left us to enjoy the cruise. It was nice that they gave blankets when it got chilly.

Beautiful view & relaxed ride - A beautiful trip. Our guide was very nice, there were snacks, drinks of your choice and as it got cooler also blankets. Although it was not a “guided tour”, we learned a lot of interesting information about the sights we passed.
Definitv to recommend.

Great! - I recently enjoyed a delightful sailboat cruise along the Tagus River, and it was an experience to remember. The journey offered stunning views of Lisbon's iconic landmarks, including the Belém Tower and the MAAT Museum, all while basking in the serene ambiance of the river. The crew was exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable, providing insightful commentary about the sights and history of the area. The gentle sway of the sailboat, coupled with the beautiful sunset, created a perfect relaxing atmosphere. I highly recommend this cruise for anyone looking to unwind and soak in the beauty of Lisbon from a unique vantage point.
