To make our stay in Lisbon even more special, I treated myself and my daughter to the 360° Lisbon tour – a combination of walking, a ride on the iconic yellow tram, a boat cruise, and a helicopter flight! It was an amazing way to experience Lisbon from three unique perspectives: land, water, and air.
The tour was perfectly organized, and each part offered something different and exciting. The highlight comes at the very end – the helicopter ride – and it truly takes your breath away!
I highly recommend 360° Lisbon to anyone looking for a unique and unforgettable way to explore the city.

A pretty good and informative experience, definitely worth the price and time. Just be ready for an about an hour long walk with highs and lows and slippery Lisbon walkway. The helicopter ride could have a gone a little deeper into the main areas though.

This tour was so unorganized and unprofessional.
Our guide hauled his scooter around with us because he was so irresponsible he lost his key
The tour specifically stated no more than 8 people and they added another 8-it made it difficult to hear the guy and was so tacky! False advertising!!!
Our guide was the worst guide I've had in over 200 tours I've used by Viator- Poor communicator complaining about his company and how he has to go every thing. He smoked in front of us so gross and he was smelly. We waited endlessly for a tram and kept walking to n from tram. When we finally get on we go up to a hill top that over look cruise ships-totally ridiculous
Who in the world wants to see cruise ships
He had nothing interesting to say or inform us about except a bit of Brief info about the oldest church n Lisbon. That we could only pick into for 5 mins. Then geez we walk back down hill where he starts complaining he has to get two Ubers for us to go to Lisbon helicopter business for a flight- he is talking u see his breath and is so unprofessional complaining about his company not doing his job!
One tiny Uber arrives for 8 people that were signed up n the other 8 r waiting for like a half hour fir the other uber to pick up the rest if people for flight. Then the guide us suppose to take the extra eight people n continue on ridiculous boring tour.
I was with the first group of 4 people for helicopter flight- we told them another group if 4 people were on the way and the flight company had no idea! Ridiculous bad communication n unprofessional/
But the 7-8 minute flight was very safe n fun n the pilot was professional. Also the boat ride that was included was very nice and enjoyable and the captain did a great job. Oh the driver that picked us up from Lisbon helicopter pad n dropped us off by Time out market was in a Mercedes van that was disguising - trashy dirty red warning light was on dashboard the car stunk of smoke n cigarettes and the driver was driving like a crazy person speeding and had no idea where he was because he was using his gps on iPhone in one had n other had driving on steering wheel. Very scary smelly rude n unprofessional!
I don't recommend using this particular tour on Viator-
But I do recommend using the boat tour n helicopter tour Lisbon
I'd contact those agencies independently or use a different site-
The initial tour guide should not be a guide-
Awful unprofessional ruined our experience!!!

Dear Holly Robison,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are very sorry that your experience did not meet your expectations. However, several points mentioned in your review are not accurate and we would like to clarify them for the benefit of future travelers.
We would like to clarify the following factual points:
1.Group size and alleged “false advertising”
At no point does our company advertise a maximum of 8 participants. On the day of your tour, there were 14 verified guests in total — 8 registered for the full experience including the helicopter flight, and 6 for the standard walking and tram portion. All names, bookings, and ticket records are documented and available as evidence.
2.Guide’s conduct
The tour guide did not smoke or act unprofessionally in the presence of clients. Any smoking occurred solely during legally permitted break periods, in designated outdoor areas.
3.Itinerary and viewpoint description
The viewpoint you referred to is the Miradouro de Santa Luzia, one of Lisbon’s most emblematic landmarks. It features traditional azulejo tile panels and provides panoramic views over the Alfama district, the Tagus River, the Church of São Vicente de Fora, and the National Pantheon. Your description of this site as “a place overlooking cruise ships” is both inaccurate and misleading to potential travelers.
4.Transportation arrangements
Due to an unforeseen accident involving the originally scheduled driver, our company arranged fully licensed and insured Uber vehicles to transfer guests to the heliport, located approximately five minutes away. All such services were carried out in full compliance with Portuguese transport and tourism regulations. The return transfer, operated in a Mercedes Vito van, also met all legal and safety requirements and was driven by a duly certified professional.
5.Heliport coordination and communication
Contrary to your claim that the helicopter operator “had no idea” about the second group, we possess documented communications with the heliport confirming that they were fully informed in advance about the total number of participants and the sequence of flights scheduled for that day. This coordination is a standard operational procedure of our company, and all flights were executed correctly and safely as planned. Your statement implying otherwise is false, misleading, and defamatory.
Kind regards,
World Experience

Beautiful day full of a great city walk, boat ride on the Tagus River and an awesome helicopter ride to view the city along the Tagus River!
Bogdana_B, Sep 2025
The experience is a great way to discover the city and do different things! Rui our guide was very nice sharing a bit about the history of the city as well as some funny stories which made the walking part of the tour very enjoyable. The helicopter ride was a great way to explore the city from above as see it from a different angle! We loved it and would have appreciated a longer ride (haha!)
Louise_L, Jul 2025
A bit of walking involved so comfortable footwear is advisable. Interesting mix of walking tram boat and helicopter.
PAUL_R, Jul 2025
Logistics by company not coordinated. A lot of downtime waiting. Group was mixed languages so guide had to explain everything in triplicate. Helicopter flight was short (expected) but didn’t even fly over city. A lot of other better experiences for cost and time

To start with the guide this morning ricardo was really informative was a lovely small private tour really attentive. Moving onto the boat tour they took you up close to see everything but there was no commentary to say what things were.
And finally helicopter ride was great but they don’t tell you they are only going to the bridge and back so bit miss leading and if there are four of you they can only take three but again don’t tell you. But otherwise great tour
Molina_J, Apr 2025
Francisco did an excellent job. He knew the history. I gave him 10/10. The walk, boat and helicopter tour was aware some.
Mary_G, Apr 2025
Wonderful unique way to see beautiful Lisbon. Our guide Rui was FABULOUS. Very, very engaging. Incredibly excited about Portugal and Portugal’s history. Very knowledgeable and passionate. Our day was planes, trains, and automobiles.!! 100% I recommend this ❤️🇵🇹
Eri_A, Mar 2025
Paulo is amazing! He's like a friend and great to have a conversation with. Definitely a great one-day trip to get a feel of Lisbon!
Melissa_R, Feb 2025
Loved the helicopter! The airspace was restricted over the river so we ended up over the beach, and it was beautiful. Our guide Pedro was full of valuable information, and you can tell he loves talking about Portugal. There was a little too much waiting at times to move between the different locations.
Janet_F, Jan 2025
Great value trip. Meeting point easy to find and get to. Pedro our guide was very informative and enthusiastic.
Anibal_M, Dec 2024
We lost the trip because the guide didn’t show up at the meeting point.
We were at the meeting point since 8:45am until 10:30am and nobody shows up.
Nikki_B, Nov 2024
We had an amazing time on this tour. Pedro was such a great guide. Lisbon is beautiful and it was interesting to see some hidden gems in the town. The boat ride was lovely and was great to see Lisbon from the sea. The highlight was definitely the helicopter ride. Amazing experience. Highly recommend!
Sharon_W, Oct 2024
Fantastic day. We learnt so much more than if we had wandered around on our own. The guide was very knowledgeable. The helicopter ride was obviously the highlight of the day. Worth every penny.
MARINA_D, Oct 2024
The best tour in Lisbon. Includes everything, from walking tour, boat tour and the best part, helicopter sightseeing. I highly reccommend it. The guide also was very professional and helped with tips and information. Dont miss it!
douglas_c, Oct 2024
The boat and helicopter were weather cancelled so did part of excursion with a great new young man to your business, and Thankyou for returning our money, but all would have rather finished the activity.
Dalilys_N, Sep 2024
Tour guy was amazing! I felt safe as a solo traveler & everyone was so nice! We did a lot of walking but it was totally worth it
Daymily_R, Sep 2024
Loved it! It was a very nice experience. Staff was nice and the pilot was very professional. 😃. The view was great !
Rachel_E, Sep 2024
Luciano was an amazing tour guide and made our last day in Lisbon so memorable! The helicopter ride was something I'll never forget but I also appreciated how professional and friendly Luciano was with our group, he was full of knowledge about the city and really made the tour worthwhile! :)

I booked this tour for my fiancé’s 30th birthday, hoping for a memorable surprise. Our tour guide, Gui, was fantastic—very friendly and helpful, answering everyone’s questions. The walking part of the tour was excellent, and the boat trip was enjoyable up until the helicopter ride.
Unfortunately, the helicopter experience was a complete disaster due to the unprofessionalism and rude behavior of the staff at the helicopter tour company. I had made it clear on three separate occasions that it was important for my fiancé and I to ride together due to my fear of flying and the special occasion. We were assured this would not be an issue, considering neither of us, nor the other passengers, exceeded the weight limit.
Upon arrival, the two receptionists were dismissive and rude. Despite our multiple confirmations, we were told that we would be split into different groups because the helicopter could only accommodate three people. This felt personal and deliberate, especially since other couples and a family group were accommodated together. Even when another family offered to rearrange their seating to accommodate us, the receptionists refused.
After my partner persuaded me to fly alone, we were informed that we had been taken off the flight list without our consent. The staff falsely claimed that we had requested to cancel our flight. Our tour guide Gui confirmed that this was not the case. After an hour of arguing and distress, the company finally agreed to let us fly, but only after we refused to pay an additional 250 euros they demanded.
Although we eventually flew, the entire experience was marred by the confrontation, ruining the surprise and the birthday celebration. The rude and unhelpful behavior of the receptionists was inexcusable and soured what should have been a joyous occasion.
I hope Viator addresses this matter with the tour company to prevent future customers from experiencing similar issues. I cannot recommend this helicopter tour company, but I do want to emphasise how great Gui was as our tour guide.
Noah_H, Aug 2024
Today was so much fun! Gui, our guide, was amazing! He was patient, knowledgeable, friendly, and so happy! He provided the rich history of old town Lisbon and Portugal as a whole during the entire trip. The walking tour wasn’t super long and the uphill was on the tram (win!). We had amazing views and pictures. Before meeting for our boat we had time to get some coffee and pastry and Gui made wonderful recommendations. The boat tour was very calm and provided excellent shots of the bridge and each coastline. Finally, the helicopter! What a finish to an already great day. The view from the helicopter was spectacular! I couldn’t imagine ending the day any better. In total, the whole trip beginning to end was about 4 hours, a perfect half day in Lisbon! 10/10 recommend!
Elizabeth_M, Aug 2024
Our guide was so knowledgeable and so friendly and so enjoyable that he made the entire experience so much fun
Keisha_H, Aug 2024
This tour was worth every penny. Miguel was an amazing tour guide. He was knowledgeable and friendly with our small group. The boat ride was wonderful and the helicopter experience was even better.
DrApril_S, Jul 2024
Pedro Aires was amazing. He was efficient, patient, enthusiastic, professional and very knowledgeable. He kept the entire group engage with his knowledge of the city while still being very patient and kind during his delivery. The thought of a Helicopter ride at the end made my 12 yo son nervous but after the ride he wanted to go again. If you book this tour you will not be disappointed. It is worth your time and money.
Victor_S, Jul 2024
The walking tour was very informational and the helicopter flight was amazing. The tour guide Pedro did a freat job.
Eddie_C, Jul 2024
Excellent tour. Explanations of the key points of the city were clear and well presented. Pedro, was amazing. The boat ride was fun and the helicopter ride was nothing short of amazing. So much fun. Highly recommend this tour.
Jay_L, Jul 2024
Joao provided important and fun facts about the city as he led us through 3 neighborhoods. Knowing where the funicular and elevators are was great during the rest of my stay.
Becca_R, Jun 2024
Wonderful introduction to the city. Tour guide, Ana, was wonderful. A very enjoyable start to our trip.
Walking tour, then a very nice boat trip ending with a helicopter ride and an incredible view of the city.
