Details

Set out on a sunset or evening sailboat cruise in Lisbon on the River Tagus. From the deck, take in the city skyline and well-known sights including the Torre de Belém, the 25 April Bridge, and the Christ the King Statue.
After boarding, you’ll be welcomed with a drink—wine, beer, champagne, or juice. Soon after departing the dock, glide past the Monument to the Discoveries, a ship-shaped tribute created for the Portuguese World Exhibition in 1940.

Take a moment to appreciate the striking views of the Belém Tower, one of Lisbon’s most iconic riverside monuments. As the boat continues along the water, you’ll find plenty of scenic photo opportunities.

Cruising along the north bank of the Tagus, enjoy views of Terreiro do Paço and Cais do Sodré, along with the recently renovated waterfront and the Museum of Electricity.

On the south bank, spot the remains of old forts and prisons. Admire the impressive span of the 25 April Bridge and the towering Christ the King Statue before returning to shore.

This was a really special way to view the sunset in Lisbon. The boat was comfortable and we felt safe in the hands of capable guides. You get to view the 25th April Bridge, Monument to the Discoveries and the Sanctuary of Christ statue up close. You also get a free beverage!

We had a great time. Beautiful sailboat, clean and comfortable, beautiful view of the city and the main buildings However, no comments were made during the activity, the skipper was more interested in his phone than in the customers. The second person, spoke French very well, but did not find it useful to practice with the French-speaking customers on board. Too bad, otherwise the output would have been perfect.

Very pleasant to cross the Tagus by sailboat. The crew is very nice, especially the gentleman from Panama. However, there was a lack of historical or cultural information to enhance the visit. The meeting point is very well indicated, no waiting. I recommend this outing.

We were thrilled to unfurl sails and not just be under power for our excursion. The boat was beautiful and the staff was charming. We highly recommend this activity!

A very good activity. Being in the Belém neighborhood when we decided to take a cruise, we booked with a departure point close to where we were. We opted for the 2:00 version. Having made the reservation in a hurry, we thought it would be a cruise on a big boat with other visitors (in fact, we thought the price was perhaps a little expensive). But it was a great surprise when we arrived and found that this trip was done on board a sailboat, only for the two of us (and therefore, the price was completely justified and affordable compared to other capitals). We were welcomed by Alex and Carlotta and they looked after us very well. Very good view of Lisbon and very beautiful photos. We highly recommend this cruise.
