ride for those who want to rest. Not very informative, the sound of the recording is very low. But it fulfills its promise: it goes through the 6 bridges, explains about them, besides the main tourist attractions of the waterfront: castle, São Matias church, parliament, etc. Who will do the bus rides will not have much added.

Easy to find meeting point through the app. Outside the building there is a sign indicating the meeting point. I went in and they gave me tickets for the tour. At 3.30 pm our guide arrives and accompanies us to the pier for departure. A beautiful 1 and a half hour tour that reaches the last bridge. Suggestive is to see that from the light of day, the buildings and bridges around 4.30 pm begin to light up giving a breathtaking sight. The speaker explains only in English. There is bar service available. I highly recommend booking this visit which has excellent value for money. With other tours I would have spent 20 euros per person.

We liked a lot this activity. It is a good value for money. The only thing need to be noticed by the managers is the quality of the music. The playlist is comsited of many different types of music, pop, then rock, then 80's soft music, then again pop, it kind drives you crazy and i think it downgrades the overall experience.

It was alright for the price. Didn't expect a welcome drink and that was nice. Do arrive really early to snap up the window seats and it's important to scan the QR code on the table to download the audio guide. There's no announcement to do it so if you miss it out, you don't get any audio guide.
