Great Experience - Lovely relaxing evening on the water. It was a bit windy that day but if you have the time, it’s a great tour to see a different perspective of the monuments along the Tagus. Very friendly and informative guide and skipper was helpful. Highly recommended

10/10 Amazing experience - The boat tour was amazing. From the communication beforehand to the ride itself things went smoothly. We chose this ride because it was possible to bring a dog and she was received kindly and there were no problems taking her with us. The guide was very knowledgeable about the city and the area around it. Not only did we learn something during the beautiful boat ride, we also got to ask questions and received advice for what to do in and around the city from a local perspective. The atmosphere was very warm and welcoming , for us and our dog. Additionally the guide was also kind enough to take pictures of us. All in all a great experience that we can only recommend should you visit the city

Spectacular - It was a unique experience! I bought the tour to start the day to see what we have of the most beautiful in the city of Lisbon and that well.. with two children was afraid that he could not run so well, but his Francisco and Vasco soon put us at ease with his empathic and warm welcome! And they treated our daughters very well. We love the walk and the simplicity of the same, which simply has nothing! We still get to know a little more about the history of our city of Lisbon! Thank you to all involved ☺️

Fabulous tour - This 90 minute tour was one of the highlights of our visit to the beautiful city of Lisbon. The decorated wooden boat was beautiful and intimate way to enjoy Lisbon from the river. Our operator and tour guide Francisco was professional, knowledgeable, friendly and on time. We got both a visual perspective and the perspective of history. Cannot recommend more highly!

Lisbon from the Tejo - A very interesting experience: to see Lisbon, with all its magnificent light, from the Tejo, on a traditional boat (as there are already few) and discover curiosities of the city by the wisdom and sympathy of the crew (Francisco and Vasco) ..
