Review of Lisbon’s 45-minute Tagus River cruise aboard a 1947 hand-painted boat, with city views, live commentary, and strong value at $17.
“We booked the 5pm trip so we could enjoy the sunset and honestly it was the best choice we made. the terminal was easy to find and everyone was really friendly. In the end it was only me and my friends (3 in total) and another couple, so the experience was very intimate. All the crew were lovely and as there were only a few of us they let us stand at the front and steer the boat. we were looking to decide between this and the 2 hour sunset cruise and this was the better choice as we covered the River in around an hour with a Guided Tour,…”

Cruise Lisbon’s Tagus River by luxury sailboat, with city views, monuments, a welcome drink, snacks, and flexible departure times.
“Booked out the entire boat for me and four friends and family. It was wonderful! One of the highlights of the trip. The captain was knowledgeable and friendly, and gave us some local lore. And they were able to accommodate us last minute for a sunset cruise. Only thing was they used the motor as well as the sail the whole time, but you won’t be able to see many of the landmarks if you don’t (the river is huge!)”

They provided a very comfortable experience and the views are unreal - you won't be able to get views like this anywhere else.

“Lovely time on the river watching the sunset. I have done two sunset cruises in Lisbon, and this one was my favourite. What made this one special were the hosts. Rodrigo and Miguel were our hosts and made us feel very comfortable. They gave us blankets and were attentive to everyone on the boat to ensure everyone was having enjoyable journeys. Would definitely recommend the sunset cruise with this company.”
