We selected the small group option to allow for a more personal experience! We hit the jackpot! Captain John and Nita were the best! They made our trip something we will remember forever. They were so helpful and attentive. The dick staff helped us with arranging storage if our luggage to facilitate a smooth transfer to our cruise ship afterwards. We could not ask for more!

"An amazing experience! Beautiful views of Lisbon from the river. We were the only 3 passengers on a lovely sailing yacht and our hosts Joao and Henrique were very hospitable, helpful and brilliantly described points of historical and geographical interest. The free tasty wine and snacks were very much appreciated. Highly recommended "

"We had an unforgettable sailing tour in Lisbon with John and David—what an incredible experience! From the moment we stepped on board, they made us feel so welcome and at ease. Their warmth and hospitality truly set the tone for a relaxing and memorable day on the water. As we sailed along the river, they shared fascinating insights into Lisbon’s rich history, pointing out landmarks like the iconic bridge, the beautiful coastline, and sharing the story behind the impressive Monument of the Cross. Their knowledge and passion for the city made the tour both fun and educational. My husband enjoyed delicious snacks and refreshing green wine, while they were incredibly thoughtful in accommodating me with special snacks and drinks since I’m six months pregnant. We also had some lovely conversations throughout the day—it felt more like sailing with friends than a formal tour. A huge thank you to both John and David for such a lovely and personalized experience. If you’re looking for a unique and meaningful way to see Lisbon, this sailing tour is a must! "

Bruno, Francisco and the other young guy (sorry can’t remember his name) were excellent hosts! They were very kind and helpful with our young kids and even let my oldest “drive” for a bit. We appreciated the wine, juice boxes and snacks plus the interesting facts + tips about Lisbon. Definitely recommend.
