We selected the small group option to allow for a more personal experience! We hit the jackpot! Captain John and Nita were the best! They made our trip something we will remember forever. They were so helpful and attentive. The dick staff helped us with arranging storage if our luggage to facilitate a smooth transfer to our cruise ship afterwards. We could not ask for more!

Bruno, Francisco and the other young guy (sorry can’t remember his name) were excellent hosts! They were very kind and helpful with our young kids and even let my oldest “drive” for a bit. We appreciated the wine, juice boxes and snacks plus the interesting facts + tips about Lisbon. Definitely recommend.

We had an unforgettable sailing tour in Lisbon with John and David—what an incredible experience! From the moment we stepped on board, they made us feel so welcome and at ease. Their warmth and hospitality truly set the tone for a relaxing and memorable day on the water.
As we sailed along the river, they shared fascinating insights into Lisbon’s rich history, pointing out landmarks like the iconic bridge, the beautiful coastline, and sharing the story behind the impressive Monument of the Cross. Their knowledge and passion for the city made the tour both fun and educational.
My husband enjoyed delicious snacks and refreshing green wine, while they were incredibly thoughtful in accommodating me with special snacks and drinks since I’m six months pregnant. We also had some lovely conversations throughout the day—it felt more like sailing with friends than a formal tour.
A huge thank you to both John and David for such a lovely and personalized experience. If you’re looking for a unique and meaningful way to see Lisbon, this sailing tour is a must!

An amazing experience!
Beautiful views of Lisbon from the river.
We were the only 3 passengers on a lovely sailing yacht and our hosts Joao and Henrique were very hospitable, helpful and brilliantly described points of historical and geographical interest.
The free tasty wine and snacks were very much appreciated.
Highly recommended

This was an absolutely lovely way to spend 2hrs!
The boat was well spread out so everyone had space. The tour hosts were sooo welcoming, fun & knowledgeable.
It was so relaxing & yet felt like we’d also done an activity too!!
Fab wine (or minerals) too!!

Our captain and his mate were so personable, and shared so much about the history of the buildings and communities surrounding the river, during our trip. They were also good about talking about the wines we enjoyed and there familiarity with the Daro Valley. A great trip, certainly.

We got very unlucky with the weather but this trip ended up being one the best tours I’ve ever done, anywhere. The captain was hilarious and super knowledgeable. He served a delicious green wine that everyone thoroughly enjoyed. The sail boat was very nice with a bathroom. I would do this tour again.

Simply the perfect way to see Lisbon from the river. Our skipper and guide were so welcoming, knowledgeable and friendly. 100% recommended, this was the best way to spend a couple of hours sightseeing and relaxing too ! Many thanks from the Man City fans.

The boat trip was very good! João and José made sure we were comfortable and served delicious wine. They showed all the sightseeings and told interesting facts about them. Would recommend!!
Nina_L, Jul 2021
Being out on the boat with Juan and Jose was an absolute highlight of our trip! We learned about the city while taking in the beautiful views. Highly recommend this trip for anyone looking for a unique way to explore Lisbon from a different perspective while learning about the city.

Ein super schöner Segelturn mit den besten Plätzen am Schiff vorne. Wir hatten das Glück, dass wir nur zu viert waren. Nette, freundliche Besatzung, guter Wein, Snacks und traumhaftes Wetter. Viel Wissenswertes erfahren.

Esta atividade veio na sequência duma experiência, minha, feita com colegas de trabalho. Foi tão agradável que quis partilhar esta experiência com a família. Adoraram. Excelente receção da parte da tripulação. O percurso realizado permitiu conhecer a outra face das margens do Tejo com especial beleza para o lado de Lisboa. O tempo estava muito agradável. Tivemos sorte em tudo

Olá. Não conseguimos agradecer o suficiente pelas amáveis palavras sobre o passeio de barco em Lisboa. A sua avaliação significa muito para nós e mostra que estamos no caminho certo! Ansioso para vê-la novamente em breve e obrigado novamente!

Insgesamt waren es 8 Leute; wir waren zu zweit und haben uns vorne auf ein gemütliches Sitzkissen gelegt. Die Tour war total schön bei blauem Himmel. Dazu gab es Wein und immer wieder interessante Storys vom Land, der Brücke usw. Bei schönem Wetter klare Empfehlung.
