Lovely, relaxing boat ride - Nice boat ride with a great view of the city, Fado music in the background and a friendly, kind staff. Some historical narration as well. Well worth the small price. Wish we could have done the sunset sail, but we leave today!

A amazing experience on the water - What a wonderful way to begin our day in Lisbon. The views were absolutely fabulous....and seeing the city from the water gives it such a unique perspective. Our guide Mafalda was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and a great communicator. Would recommend this tour to everyone. If we had another day in Lisbon we would do it again.

Trip on the Tagus in a traditional boat - Very nice trip on the Tagus, on a very beautiful traditional boat. Very welcoming crew and the guide Marta knows her subject very well, spoke in 3 languages, and very friendly, offered to take our photos. I recommend, very good time along the water.

Great experience!! - The boat ride has been incredible, not only because of the views, but also the kind attention of the guides and drivers, explaining the entire story in detail and offering to take photos at the best angles and with the helm of the boat, I recommend it. 100%, very good experience in Lisbon!

The good idea to get to know Lisbon - Lisbon by the sea, a nice introduction before discovering the city. Madalena, very friendly, gave us essential comments in very good French😉

A traditional boat tour - Such a pleasant, relaxing trip on a beautiful old traditional sail boat, so much nicer than the large boats. Our tour guide, Madelana, was very informative and we were also given the opportunity to steer the boat, which was a bonus! Would highly recommend this boat tour with a difference

Lovely boat ride - Good value for the money, but not a terrible amount to see other than the beautiful view of the city!

Nice if it works - Unfortunately, the message that the time had been changed to 5 p.m. came at 2 p.m. Fortunately, it was a good thing, but it was difficult to find anyone and then get a clear answer. There were only 6 of us on the boat - unfortunately, the guide with the microphone was completely incomprehensible. The scenery from the water is worth seeing - just block out the noise all around.
