Exceptional experience - It was worth the experience! I went to Lisbon Portugal with my son. It was his birthday trip gift to me. Flying from NY was worth the experience. We have the sightseeing traditional boat. Elisa the host was so eloquent that she tried to speak in 2 languages during the trip. History culture and the present was tackled. It was fun with the music and splash of water on board. I love it. We spent 2H on the boat and Elisa talked to us one by one which made the trip enjoyable.

Perfect for a casual couple of hours - Wonderful vessel, crewed by decent fellers. GG our guide was charming and made every guest feel welcome. He shared some fascinating history (in 3 languages!) about Lisbon and its landmarks. 4.30 launch made for some stunning views to the west at the end of our cruise. Would happily do this again next time I visit the city

Love it!! - Wonderful boat trip on the Tagus! Super friendly people. Very nice to see Lisbon from the water. Good explanation about the monuments. We were offered water, nice and refreshing on a hot day. Swells on the waves, sun on your face, fado in the background... We really enjoyed it!

Magical - The whole experience was lovely. The group was small so we had plenty of room around us. Iara was wonderful, she explained everything really well and guided us through the whole tour flawlessly. Thank you!

Fun on board - From the first moment the experience has been magnificent. Excellent crew, fun, attentive and very friendly, especially Elisa, our guide, a charm and very attentive to all passengers. We were a great group: English, Irish, American, Italian, French and we 2 Spaniards, all with good vibes and funny anecdotes.

Nice views limited contact with guide - Was hoping for more interaction with the guide. She spoke maybe 4 times the whole trip and was either on her phone or hanging out with the crew and not at all available to ask any questions. Perhaps the boat should provide a print out of information about the sights or an audio link. Otherwise it is a nice boat ride.
