My husband and I took the sunset cruise on our honeymoon and it was such a perfect relaxing night. Issac our guide was the perfect mix of friendly, funny, informative, and professional. He talked about all there was to see of Lisbon from the river and also provided the most amazing recommendations for food! I would absolutely recommend this trip to anyone looking to have a nice night out on the water while learning and relaxing in Lisbon!

What a great excursion! After a day of touring the city from land, this private sunset sailing experience was a great reform the crowded streets of Lisbon. Despite us being 10 minutes late, the captain & mate happily greeted us and escorted us to the boat. The views were amazing and the bottle of green wine was the cherry on top. The mate, Daniela, was super knowledgeable and highlighted many landmarks that we viewed from the water. This excursion was a perfect addition to our anniversary trip. Great captain & mate, nice clean boat…equipped with a bathroom. Good time!

Great sunset sailing...

Great sunset sailing cruise. Super friendly skipper and deckhand. Drinking a glass of sparkling wine and watch the other boats and the sunset. When it got colder, we received warm blankets. Couldn’t be better.

Fantastic Sunset Cruise!

My wife and I both thought this cruise was a highlight of our Lisbon vacation. Not only was the two-member crew skilled and efficient, but informative and funny. They gave us all the space we needed but were ready to answers and give the full tourist attraction tour if desired. I'd heartily recommend this trip as an add-on to any couple looking for a little romantic adventure.

Perfect !

Honestly this was a great evening on a lovely boat. Wonderful views of Portugal from the water. Diego and the crew were truly enjoyable. Would recommend this experience if you're looking for a private way to experience Lisbon.

Perfect!

The Most Magical Experience

Kimberley_M, Jul 2018
Right away the captain comes to meet you and he is so pleasant and has the most infectious smile. Right away the energy is amazing and you know the trip is going to be Epic! We sat on the this super comfy cushion at the front of the both that gave us not only gave us a front tow to seat to the most breathtaking views but made us feel as if we were the only ones there in our little romantic bubble! The captain was very knowledgeable, answering questions when we asked, quietly refilling our glasses of champagne right on que! It was a magical trip that marked a milestone in our relationship! Unforgettable experience and one I would do again in a heartbeat!!!
