Great experience with G and M. GUI (? sorry if I messed your name up) was an excellent crew member with a vast knowledge of portugals history and its monuments. The crew was fun and friendly and paid close attention to our needs. They provided a cold beer (or wine) along with a very enjoyable shot of a traditional Portugal liqueur. As the evening cooled with the sun setting we were offered blankets. It was a beautiful night...a beautiful sunset...a beautiful ending to our vacation in Portugal. Thanks G. Hope one day you end up sailing your own sailboat.

We had a wonderful trip down the Tagus River. The captain and his mate were so accommodating. They told entertaining stories about the sights. It felt like a private tour with only one other couple joining. It is a wonderful way to get another perspective of Lisbon; I highly recommend.

This a fabulous cruise on Miguel’s 42 foot sail boat! It was a small group so we got a lot of personal attention with lots of laughter. We could experience the city in a very peaceful, relaxing way. I have already recommended this experience to several people! This is a must while visiting Lisboa!

It was a relaxing experience with a very funny and amusing crew. We had a beautiful view of the city and loved the opportunity to learn about Lisbon from a different perspective.

I took my wife on this tour to celebrate her birthday and the first experience was amazing. Not only were the two captains extremely accommodating, but we got to meet an amazing couple from India that had just gotten married.

We really enjoyed the trip and loved seeing Lisboa from the Tejo, the team was great on board and very knowledgeable. My only recommendation is not to talk so much, strike a good balance of facts and information, but avoid talking throughout. It's nice to take in the scenery and soak up the sun - most of us going on trips like this aren't often on boats.

A wonderful experience well worth doing! Miguel and Tiago were both entertaining and knowledgeable- We enjoyed listening to the historic tales of Portugal, drinking delicious wine, laughing lots and seeing some stunning views of the city ✨

If you are traveling to Lisbon, this is a must do experience with Miguel and Diego with the Magic Sail. The history, the views, the care they take with all those on board... best experience I've had and totally worth the price. Do it! You won't regret it. You will be sad to get off the boat but happy you had the best time!

Tiago was a great guide. He provided great information and humor. We had a great trip. I am prone to seasickness and did not have any issues.

Tour guides were friendly, knowledgeable and funny! They gave us moscatel, wine, ice tea and cookies with a beautiful sunset experience. There were blankets if we were cold and refills when glasses were empty. One of the best experiences of our Portugal trip for sure! Thank you!

Had a great experience with Magic Sail. I booked the 4:30 tour to be able to see the sunset and it was fantastic enjoying the breeze, listening to a bit of history/sights, and being on the water. It does get a little chilly so bring a jacket and use their blanket.

What a perfect day! Leonard was a great captain and tour guide. We enjoyed a gorgeous sunny cruise and even got to view the sunset. 100% recommend!

We showed up 5 minutes late due to traffic—which was communicated to the sailors—and they left without us. Totally understand that they had other guests to please, but they would not respond when we inquired about a refund. Did not enjoy dealing with this company

I enjoyed every detail, the staff was very friendly, and the explanations were also very interesting. My friends and I gained a deeper and more diverse understanding of Lisbon’s history.

Great tour, and we were lucky enough to have a real sailing experience with the sails up as well! Excellent way to view the Lisbon waterfront and all its architecture for the price!

Sail boat was small so less people and a more personal experience. Great crew and wonderful service.
