Full description

Discover Lisbon from a boat as you set sail on the Tagus river. See the most famous landmarks of the city and enjoy a relaxing time on the water.

Board your sailboat at the Doca do Bom Sucesso Marina. Sail down the Tagus river and pass by the Monument of Discoveries underneath the 25 de Abril Bridge.

Continue onto the river Tejo and admire Lisbon's many different architectural styles. On the journey back to the marina you’ll pass by the Christ the King statue on the south bank, as well as the Belem Tower monument.

If you’ve selected the sunset option you’ll have the chance to witness the sunset over the Lisbon skyline – a romantic view perfect for couples. You can choose to help the crew sail the boat (no experience necessary), or simply relax on deck.

This experience was a once in a lifetime trip. We did the two hour sailboat tour and could not recommend it enough. The crew were so friendly and helpful and the seeing the city from the water was truly the best way to see it. Could not recommend enough!!

A thoroughly enjoyable later afternoon spent on the water. My two children loved this activity, and really enjoyed interacting with the crew and riding the boom net. The catamaran is big enough that it felt like a private charter - the other groups were able to keep their distance, and weren’t crowded into a small area. We elected to take the 5pm sail, but for a true dusk-evening experience the 7pm sail would have been better (in October). If the going down of the sun is something that you’re wanting to experience, then check the sunset time, and choose between the 5pm and 7pm cruise. Overall, one of the most enjoyable and relaxing activities in Lisbon.

We did this as a family of 5 with 3 kids ages 8, 10, 13. Process was very organized! Boat was excellent - clean, lots of room, a bathroom, blankets, and a fun hammock net over the water that the kids loved. Crew was nice and friendly! One drink was included which was enjoyable, plus you could buy additional. Slight downside was that this was “sightseeing” only - no verbal explanations of what we were looking at unless you asked crew specifically, but I think this was mentioned in description.
