Even on a windy/cold day it was a beautiful trip. The guide gave lots of information and it was obvious he was sharing from his personal experiences. Great view of Belém Temple and the Navigator statue.

Sunset cruise

TRAVIS_E, Aug 2024
The boat and crew were nice and since the cruise is on the river, it was a pretty smooth ride. Unfortunately for us, the clouds came in just before sunset, but the crew gave us every chance to see any but that we could (timing and positioning were perfect).

This was such a fun excision! Bartender Alex was engaging and hospitable. The captain was watching the ocean but kept us entertained with the lights on the boat and good sailing music. The snacks and drinks were plenty and good. Overall, we though it would be too crowded but No it was roomy and a good time by all! Totally doing it again!!!

Wonderful Sunset Cruise on the Tagus River

PamDGIL, Oct 2019
A beautiful cruise on a lovely Cat Sail. The slippers were very attentive and provided information on the sights as we motored along. The boat was a good size and the experience was lovely. Start location was perfect in Belem right near the Tower.

Perfect first outing

Lisa_M, Dec 2018
We took the sunset cruise upon arriving to Lisbon. Our skipper was fantastic. It was so enjoyable and we got a great introduction to Lisbon. We highly recommend this tour.

Bernardo took just the two of us out...

Michelle E, May 2018
Bernardo took just the two of us out on the sailboat, so it was like having our own private charter. He put the masts up, poured us some wine, sailed around the Tagus, pointed out points of interests, told us stories and then he actually let me take the wheel. Such a great way to tour the river and see Lisbon from a different perspective.

A great way to end our trip in...

Jerica_E, Feb 2018
A great way to end our trip in Lisbon. Gorgeous views of the city during sunset. Very good price for what you get, would do it again!

We had a great time on this cruise...

Alexandra G, Feb 2018
We had a great time on this cruise, however it would've been better if there was commentary or information available along with the sailing. It was nice to see the sunset though, and the wonderful view of Lisbon from waterside.
