We had a great time on the boat! Staff were friendly, music was lively, and the vibes were fun. Our fellow passengers included a bachelorette party, a mother-daughter trip, and both older and younger couples, all of whom seemed to be enjoying themselves. It was lovely to cruise around at sunset. Would definitely recommend!

Perfect timing with the sunset and the temperature was perfect. My partner and I loved this experience. I would highly recommend this to anyone!

A good trip up and down the river with a perfectly timed pause at the end to watch the sunset which was great to see
Jacqueline_W, Jul 2026
As we sat at a restaurant and saw other boats being loaded, the workers were helping customers go from the dock to the boat. We did not get that. The crew also couldn't manage the line. They came to collect tickets and asked for one straight line 10mins before boarding but we had been gathering for a half hr before. People got on first who had arrived after others. Music was playing on board but if you on the bow you barely heard it. The needed speakers there. All in all, it was nice seeing the sunset. Drinks were watered down. I had a good time because of who I was with. This is not for anyone under 40yrs old.

An amazing trip with seeing the sights on the water and sunset at the end of the trip. Nice boat and guides.
Linda_F, Jun 2026
In all the reviews, everyone mentions how cold they can get on the boat. Do not ignore that warning as it was 90° when we got to the pier and the temperature dropped fast. I did bring a warm sweater so I really enjoyed the trip. the music was good and the crew very nice. It was just the right amount of time to be on the river waiting for the sunset and to see the beautiful statues and buildings along the way.
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Hi Linda, thank you for the lovely review and the smart tip! You're right, the temperature can drop fast on the water once the sun sets. Good news for future guests, we also have blankets on board, so just ask the crew if the breeze picks up. So happy you enjoyed the sunset and the music. Come sail with us again soon!
Brenna_B, Jun 2026
This was by far our group's favorite activity our whole trip. The boat was very relaxing and the staff were amazing! It did get a little chilly at the very end so I would recommend bringing a sweatshirt. If you want the best seats on the boat, I recommend arriving early and getting a spot at the beginning of the line. We felt finding the dock was very easy with the directions given to us. I would recommend this to anyone that is looking to do it!
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Brenna, favourite activity of the whole trip?! We might actually frame that one. So glad the team made such an impression, and great tip on arriving early for the best seats. On the chill at the end: just a heads up to anyone reading, we have blankets on board and the crew are always happy to sort you out, just ask! Hope to have your group back on the Tagus very soon.
Susan_R, Jun 2026
Great activity for a group! Perfect length and beautiful views. Catamaran kept the ride stable despite it being a windy evening. Pack a sweater!!
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Susan, thank you so much! A catamaran on a breezy evening is honestly one of the best combos we offer, and we're so glad your group had the perfect outing. Great tip on the sweater too! And just so future guests know, we also have blankets on board, just ask the crew. Hope to have you all back on the Tagus!
Virginia_G, Jun 2026
This sunset cruise the highlight of my nearly three week European trip. The absolute perfect end to our girls' trip vacation.
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Virginia, "highlight of a three-week European trip" might be one of the greatest things anyone has ever said to us! The Tagus at golden hour has a way of making everything feel cinematic, and we're so thrilled your girls' trip ended on such a high note. Wishing you many more adventures, and a warm welcome back on board whenever you return to Lisbon!
Chip_A, Jun 2026
It was a fun trip!! It was just the perfect amount of time and we were able to see Lisbon from the water along with a beautiful sunset. Staff was great and had great music playlist to create a good vibe!!
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Chip, thank you!! Perfect timing, beautiful sunset, great staff, and a playlist that delivered — that's exactly what we set out to create every single evening on the Tagus. Really glad it all came together for you. Welcome back on board anytime!
kay_h, Jun 2026
the directions took us to the hippo trip ticket office but we soon found people congregating nearby where it said boat trips.
the evening then went smoothly & was enjoyed by all of us.
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Thank you so much, and we're glad the evening was enjoyed by all! We're sorry the directions caused any confusion at first, we know the meeting point isn't always easy to spot. We're working on making it clearer. Once on board, we do our best to make it well worth the hunt!
Emily_I, Jun 2026
This is a lovely, relaxed trip. There was a good seating area with tables and chairs and large netted seating area with bean bags for the full catamaran experience. The view of the bridge and the Christ the King tower was great, especially when it was all lit up. Good selection of drinks and friendly staff on board.
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Thank you, Emily! That moment when Cristo Rei and the bridge light up over the Tagus is hard to beat. So glad you enjoyed the catamaran layout and the netted area, there's nothing quite like that spot at sunset. We'd love to welcome you back on board!
Mark_R, May 2026
The boat departed on time and was not overly crowded. There was no greeting or welcome and no narration at all. The staff did not interact with the guests except to take drink orders at the bar. The music was fine and the drink ticket allowed you to get your choice of beer, wine or cocktail. The ride was smooth and passed by all the major landmarks on the river. It was advertised as 1hr 45m, but we were back at the dock in 1hr 30m.
Response from Host, May 2026
Thank you for such a detailed and fair review, Mark. We are glad the ride was smooth and uncrowded. Just to clarify, our cruise is not a guided tour, so there is no formal narration, but our crew is always happy to share tips and answer questions about Lisbon, please do flag us down next time. We have also noted your point about the welcome and the timing, and will look into it. We would love to give you a warmer experience on board again!
Hannah_H, May 2026
Experience exactly as described. Staff very friendly, and helpful when boarding and disembarking the catrermeran.
Views were amazing!
Definitely take a jumper/jacket - the temperature drops quickly when the sun goes in
Response from Host, May 2026
Thank you, Hannah! We are so glad the experience matched exactly what you expected, and that our crew looked after you well. Great tip about bringing a jacket, the air really does cool down once the sun sets. And if anyone forgets, we keep blankets on board, just ask the crew. We would love to welcome you back for more of those amazing views!
Galan_H, May 2026
They overbook the boat so it’s not comfortable. They described it as a relaxing sunset cruise but it’s hard to relax when you’re shoulder to shoulder.
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry you did not feel fully at ease during the experience. We want to be clear that we never exceed our catamaran's licensed capacity. We understand that not every guest can secure their preferred spot on the nets or in the covered interior area, but there is always comfortable space on board for everyone. We hope you will give us another chance to show you what a relaxed evening on the Tagus really looks like.
ThuangBoon_G, May 2026
Perfect cruise to watch sunset. Departure at 730pm for 1.5hrs was perfect timing in May. Try to sit on the net. Bring your own blanket if the weather is cold.
Response from Host, May 2026
Thank you, ThuangBoon! Great tip about sitting on the net, that's our favourite spot too 😊 And good shout on the blanket, we always have some on board for whoever needs them. So glad the timing and the sunset worked out for you. Hope to welcome you back next time!
Samantha_C, May 2026
Great way to see a lot of the monuments and to see a beautiful sunset on the water. The staff is also really great !
Response from Host, May 2026
Thank you, Samantha! Lisbon really shows off from the river at sunset and our crew loves to add to the moment 😊 We're so happy you had a great experience and we hope to welcome you back on board soon!
Arthur_G, Apr 2026
This is a must do trip in Lisbon. First class staff and accommodations. I highly recommend. A great time.
Response from Host, May 2026
Thank you Arthur! "First class" is a lovely thing to read, we'll happily pass it on to the crew 😊 We hope to welcome you back on board next time you're in Lisbon!

Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you so much for your lovely review, Caroline. We really love hearing how different groups and people all came together to enjoy the same sunset and atmosphere on board. That is one of our favourite things about these evenings on the river 😊
Kamil_K, Apr 2026
Location is easy to reach by uber. There were two boats to bring everybody on board. The boat sails smoothly, cuts through waves. Price of drinks after the one included welcome one, was reasonable. It does get freezing cold after sunset so come prepared.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you for your review, Kamil. We are really happy to know everything felt easy and smooth from the start and that you enjoyed the experience on board. And yes, sunset on the river can get quite cold, so that is a very helpful tip for future guests. Hope to welcome you on board again soon 😊
Ana_S, Apr 2026
Ask for the Moscow Mule! Great crew, beautiful sail! We went in the perfect evening with chill vibes and everything was just how we hoped.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you so much for your lovely review. We are really happy to know the evening was everything you hoped for and that the vibe on board made it even more special. Hope to welcome you back for another sunset soon 😊
Aylin_C, Apr 2026
Had a wonderful time on the boat- beautiful sunset, fun lively music and fun boating experience! It did get quite cold towards the end so just make sure to bring layers!
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you so much for your lovely review. We are really happy you had such a good time with us and enjoyed that special end of day feeling on the river. And yes, a few extra layers are always a smart move for sunset time
Paula_C, Mar 2026
I am sure it was fun, but the weather was cold and rainy and we opted to skip this experience. I wish I had looked at the weather and canceled. Oh well, next time I’ll know.
Response from Host, Jun 2026
Thank you for the kind words about the experience itself! We completely understand that weather can change plans, and we are sorry the conditions on that evening were not what you hoped for. Unfortunately we have no control over the weather, and our tours run as scheduled. We do hope you will come back on a clear evening and experience the Tagus at its best. We would love to give you the sunset you came for!
Eva_R, Feb 2026
Staff was very sweet and it was lovely watching the sun set with a drink and some music! Thank you!!
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you so much for your kind words. There is something really special about ending the day like that on the river, and we are so happy you enjoyed it with us. Hope to see you on board again soon 😊
Emily_A, Jan 2026
We were provided with the wrong meeting location multiple times. We went to the provided location and no one was there. Didn’t have time to make it to the actual meeting location at that point. Spent money on two taxis. Tried to get a refund and the vendor declined it. DO NOT RECOMMEND. Would give it zero stars if I could.
Response from Host, Jun 2026
We are sorry for the frustration and inconvenience you experienced. Our meeting point is clearly indicated on our Viator listing, our website and Google Maps, and we cannot take responsibility for directions provided by third-party navigation apps or for any misunderstandings that may arise with drivers.

We encourage you to reach out to us directly so we can look into this situation and try to find a solution together.

One of the best sunsets I’ve ever seen. A must-experience moment in Lisbon. Watching the sunset in Lisbon from a catamaran was an unforgettable experience
Response from Host, Jan 2026
We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed one of the best sunsets ever!
Experiencing Lisbon’s sunset from our catamaran is exactly the magical moment we love to share 🙌
We hope to welcome you back on board Sardinha do Tejo! 🚤

Layla_a, Jul 2025
Lots of fun with music that everyone enjoyed and we even danced a bit. The boat is very comfortable and clean
Louie_R, Jul 2025
This is the most fun boat cruise I ever had.and I had more than a dozen. The crew was friendly and accommodating. The guests were having a great time, the music tracks played during the cruise made a great ambiance that most of us were singing along. Will highly recommend to family and friends.
Ron_G, Apr 2025
What a great time at a reasonable price. Tour the waterfront for dozens of great sites and photos. The boat has a restroom and bar. Really fun group got to singing and dancing on our trip. You come back to a super cute lighted waterfront row of restaurants to eat and drink. A+ experience.
