A wonderfully thorough and informative tuk tuk tour. We chose the 4 hour options and highly recommend it to see the city whether it’s your first time or your tenth. We learned many new things and also saw some hidden gems.

Hugo was amazing very informative and professional. Highly recommend tour if your pressed for time or want a simple and precise tour of the city.

Tuk Tuk

Bonnie_S, Jun 2026
It a good overview of city but not as in-depth as I had expected. I would recommend 3 hour tour rather than 2 be prepared for some bumpy hills😎

Hard to see out of this tuk tuk. Expected more from our guide but had some nice stops.

William_G, Jun 2026
This was an okay way to see Lisbon but it was hard to see out past the overhead cover of the tuk tuk and our guide didn't give us as much information as we expected about stops and the city. We did get to stop in Belem which we enjoyed.

Good, but not the best value

Darlene_R, May 2026
Good tour of the city…but compared to other tours for the money paid, I don’t think the value was there. The driver was great and very personable but it was more of a “what do you want to see” type vs. “here’s where I’m taking you”. We also had 2 elderly but healthy people and the Tuk-Tuk was difficult for them to get in and out of. If I had to do it over, there are so many on any street in Lisbon, I would have found one that better suited our needs with a driver using a microphone. My parents (80-year olds) had a difficult time hearing the guide.

Invigorating and Informative

Hal_H, May 2026
Very invigorating! But relaxing at the same time! Such an awesome way to tour and learn about Lisbon. Our tour guide was friendly & knowledgeable, making our tour positively memorable.

We booked a 3 hour Tuk Tuk with Boost Portugal and Will was our driver. It was a great experience. We got an overview of the city with enough time at stops to explore. Will was very thoughtful in pointing out great places to shop and eat as well as a great overview of the history of Lisbon. We would highly recommend him.

Easy and Unique

Laurie_B, May 2026
Two hours is plenty to see highlights in Lisbon. The ride a bit bumpy, but it is a fun way to see a lot of the city. It’s not possible to walk the entire city, as it is too large. Our guide and driver was great!

Great Introduction to Lisbon

We had a great time with our guide. He was very knowledgeable about the city and its history. Our guide gave us time for pictures and touring the cathedral.

A great overview of the city

Susan_C, Apr 2026
The tuk tuk tour with Baltazar was wonderful. He was very knowledgeable about the different areas of the city and stopped at a number of miradoras, monuments and highlights. It was enjoyable and provided me with a great overview of the city and some of the major events over the years. I would highly recommend this tour and tour guide. Just be prepared to bounce around due to the cobblestone streets.

Heidi_K, Mar 2026
I was as able to see a lot of Lisbon. My guide was great and we had great conversations over the 3 hours. I was lucky to be the only one. I wish the sight line out of this particular vehicle was better . I had to duck my head low to see under the plastic overhang.

Our tour leader Catalina was very good. She is very nice and friendly and very knowledgeable. We were unlucky with the weather as it was raining a lot and could barely see much but other than that it would have been nice.
