We had a wonderful time and it was definitely a highlight of our trip to Lisbon! Pedro and Joanna were great guides and made sure we were comfortable with blankets when it got a bit chilly as well as topping up our wine for the whole ride. We also learnt about some of the history of Lisbon which was very interesting! I'd definitely recommend this tour 😊

Best boat tour I’ve taken. Pedro and Pedro clearly love what they do and are super organized and knowledgeable. They had me at blankets, snacks, wine, and hot water bottles! Then the stories and recommendations won the day 10/10

A great alternative way to experience Lisbon.

Harold_L, Nov 2024

We enjoyed the setting and the lively conversation with both Pedros throughout our cruise. It was a great way to get another perspective of the city.

Just book it

ShannaKay_H, Oct 2024

This was a beautiful ride! I booked this as my birthday activity and I am happy I did! The guides Pedro and Pedro were knowledgeable and were very kind. I highly recommend taking this tour not only for the beautiful sunset but for the learning part as well! Please do not be like me and wear a dress, I recommend something warmer!

Fabulous boat trip

A TRULY ROMANTIC AND MEMORABLE EXPERIENCE.

RYAN_K, Nov 2023

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. This was one of the most romantic experiences of our lives. Beatrice and Pedro are kind and generous guides. They shared with us the history and culture of Lisbon while we sailed along its majestic coastline. As a bonus, we sipped on bottomless green wine (very delicious), snacked on Bugles (my nostalgic favorite), and listened to relaxing pop music. Do yourself a favor, and bring your special someone on this once-in-a-lifetime adventure. THANK YOU!

Highlight of Lisbon

Stephanie_K, Oct 2023

The tour was lovely and a super convenient way to see all the monuments along the riverbank. Our guides were fantastic and told us about the monuments as well as Portuguese history. The service was impeccable and we were served green wine and snacks during the tour. Highly recommend this experience, either with friends and family or as a date. The guides are great hosts and the views are unbeatable!

Fabulous Tagus River Experience

Debbie_R, Jun 2023

Not the best customer service experience

Brian_K, Jul 2022

This company was unwilling to assist us with a missed reservation due to no fault of our own. Additionally, the Customer service and communication lacked all around.

Response from Host, Jul 2022

Hey Brian. Really sorry read your review. You missed your reservation because you arrived 40 min late. And we can not ask all the other guests to wait for you under the hot sun. You message me saying that you got the time wrong by 30 min thinking that the tour started 30 min later. So unfortunately it is your fault. Regarding the lacking on communication I will polity disagree. You received a message via this platform on the day before the tour with a reminder of your tour, remindig you of that time and place with a GPS location and pictures of the meeting Point. We are very clear that the check in is 20 min before the tour. We have try to get in touch with you multiple times and nothing. Wend you finally got back to me I responded every time, and even try to put you and your family on a later date. In a mater of fact I still have you booked for the 26th wend you told me you would be back in Lisbon. I am really sorry you feel this way wend from our side you got nothing but trying to help. I would like you to consider if you still think this way and if don't to please remove the review and join one of our tours. After you getting on-board I am sure the next review would be completely different. Kindly Pedro

A nice tour in a day for Lisboa

CatTuong_D, Jul 2022

The tour guides were so friendly and funny, the view was incredibly beautiful. Totally recommended for everyone!!

Delightful Pleasure Cruise :)

Gabrielle_P, Jun 2022

Our family thoroughly enjoyed this relaxed boat ride with great views. The staff was kind and informative. Our kids (7 & 5 years old) had a good time and there was ample Green Wine for the adults to enjoy. Blankets, solid tunes, and even a lucky dolphin sighting made this a wonderful experience.

Amazing!

Christa_J, Jun 2022

Pedro and Pedro gave a wonderful tour of the Lisbon area. Really nice and great experience for anyone new to the place or looking for a relaxing activity.

Relaxing sail along Lisbon’s waterfront

April_T, May 2022

Pedro and Pedro showed great hospitality and knowledge of Portugal’s history, sights and sailing. Very personable and pulled out all the stops to ensure our enjoyment. Our 9 year old daughter even got a chance to captain the boat. Highly recommend this relaxing tour!
