Lovely boat and the crew were so friendly and informative. To see Lisbon from the river and to have someone tell you all about the history etc was so good. Then we got to see a few dolphins so fabulous. Would recommend.

Tour did exactly what it said it would. We saw dolphins and went around and saw Lisbon from the water. However i will say there is room for improvement. The tour guide can be a bit more engaged with the crowd also the sound wasn’t always great to hear what they were saying. But o really got exactly what we were promised

Nice trip, with beautiful views of Lisbon. The chance of spotting dolphins seems very small to me on this trip. You sail through the river and at the transition to the ocean you almost immediately turn around, so we did not see any dolphins. Do you want to see dolphins? Book a speedboat tour. Do you want to see Lisbon and the surrounding area from the water? Book this tour! Definitely recommended.

Do not do in winter as there is little chance of seeing dolphins at this time. According to the guide they can be seen from April during the breeding period because they come closer.

The trip was good, nice boat, suitable seating, and free drinks which no one abused. Unfortunately no dolphins but the trip was worthwhile. Downside was that he aftercare. We were dispatched from boat and left to make way to exit. By the time we realised it was locked, the boat had gone. After 15 minutes we had to resort to climbing across the walkway and climbing up. A good team building exercise but not expected!

We loved this boat trip and when we got there they told us it was a speedboat (which was excellent for us!) it was a very fun bouncy boat and we saw lots of dolphins, excellent value for money!

Everything was perfect :) The host welcoming on board is so joyful and open and happy to talk about Lisboa. She explained also the landmarks on boths sides of the Tejo. We saw dolphins for about 20mins. very close. Drinks were for free as well. You can sit outside and inside. I loved it :) Thank you!
