Amphibious tour of Lisbon

Details

Step aboard a 90-minute amphibious tour of Lisbon that blends sightseeing, history, and lighthearted entertainment. Traveling in a comfortable vehicle designed for both land and water, you’ll experience the city from two unique angles in one seamless journey.

Your adventure begins on the streets, passing through Lisbon’s main highlights and lesser-known corners while guides share interesting myths, legends, and curiosities. This tour encourages passenger interaction, creating a lively atmosphere that feels more personal than a traditional sightseeing ride.

Then comes the memorable moment: with a splash, the vehicle transitions onto the Tagus River, revealing a wide panorama of Lisbon’s skyline. From the water, you’ll spot the monumental landmarks of the Belém area, closely linked to Portugal’s Age of the Discoveries.

Tours operate daily, rain or shine, and are available with guides in both Portuguese and English. It’s an enjoyable way to learn, laugh, and explore Lisbon from a fresh perspective.

We had a great time. Our top-notch and funny guide. Driving around Lisbon and then finding yourself on the water. It was great. We recommend this excursion. My daughter loved it too even if she didn't really understand the explanations in English.

Everything was great, except that it was too cold and the side protection wasn't closed. I've been sick in bed ever since and I'm sure many people feel the same.

Hippotrip Lisboa is an unforgettable experience you simply cannot miss! Captain Baixa and guide Maria were absolutely fantastic – funny, informative, and full of energy. The combination of exploring the city on land and cruising the Tagus River offers a unique perspective of Lisbon and its landmarks. Maria captivated everyone with her charm and knowledge of the city’s history, while Captain Baixa expertly navigated the amphibious vehicle, ensuring both safety and fun. The moment we splashed into the river was truly unforgettable! We highly recommend this experience to everyone, especially families with children. A huge thank you to the entire Hippotrip team for an amazing day! 5/5 🌟
