Dolphin Watching Boat Tours in Lisbon

Ir was a fun day. Catarina is very knowledgeable and great at instructing us! Highly recommend activity in a very cute time

Overall it was a very beautiful experience. Our hosts Vanessa (marine biologist) and Joao (boat captain) were very professional. Vanessa took a lot of effort to explain everything and answer all our questions. She even gave the kids the opportunity to go to the front of the boat for a better view while taking care of their safety. It was very informative and opened up a new perspective for us. Our daughter was simply thrilled with this experience and we hope to be further inspired and do some whale watching next !

The welcome is very friendly with some explanations given by oceanographers on the most common species of dolphins in the region. The boats are recent and fast. The small tour towards the monuments of the city at the edge of the river (after having seen the dolphins for an hour!) gives a different view of this district. The team is cheerful and available to people. To do without hesitation!

Jose and Mario were super. They went out of their way to make sure our outing was enjoyable and we were able to see dolphins. They asked what we wanted to do and see. Great experience. Highly recommend!

Very informative! Hosts were lovely, really funny and always ensured our drinks were topped up. My girlfriend and I had an amazing time

Wonderful and perfectly safe for someone who is not confortable with deep waters.

It was an Awesome Sunset tour! Thank you very much to our hosts who were knowledgeable & very friendly. My glass of wine kept being refilled, a tasty pastel de nata, IG worthy sights & the sunset was just simply memorable. Obrigada!

Great tour in a small party - Pedro and Ana were efficient, friendly and entertaining, plenty of wine and laughs and a spectacular sunset thrown in!

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.

Such a great sunset tour! Our guides Anna and Pedro were pleasant and very knowledgeable about Lisbon and gave us lots of good tips for places to go. The boat is clean and comfortable and the green wine delicious! Highly recommend this tour. We were blessed with catching a gorgeous sunset!

A fantastic way to end my time in this wonderful city. The guide was great; he allowed us to enjoy the boat ride and tranquility, while still guiding us through the points of interest along the way. The green wine was fantastic. Very good value for money in my opinion.

"The activity was a lot of fun and at the same time informative. The marine biologist as well as our skipper were both extremely well informed and friendly. We were lucky and got to see porpoises, common dolphins as well as bottle nosed dolphins and the weather was lovely. Our teenage children wanted to repeat the activity immediately after instead spending time in the city :). This is a must do activity regardless of whether you are travelling alone, with friends or with family. Suitable for young children as well. Thank you for an amazing experience."

our guides mario and Jose got us to the dolphins within 5 minutes. we never expected to see this many and so close! there were scraggy mothers with babies, groups of dolphins swimming and jumping in front of the boat, a couple mating tiny next to us, orbs playfully seeking us out and really curious. beautiful experience! we took a lot of photos and videos. After we were treated with a visit to some caves and took a dip in the bay of praia do cavalo where we were offered a glass of moscatel and a regional pastry. thanks for the great morning!

Loves the friendly crew, visiting the dolphins, and seeing the coast line. We even loved the (fast) exciting ride back to the coast!

Incredible experience! The staff was very knowledgeable about the dolphins and their behaviors. We were fortunate enough to find a super-pod feeding. Would book again and highly recommend the Mercedes Benz Oceanic Team.

Brilliant trip. Caterina was a mine of information without it ever sounding like a script or becoming fact-heavy. I'd been sceptical about how reliable the dolphin sightings would turn out to be, but she explained that if one pod failed to appear, there was usually another pod of bottlenose dolphins nearby as almost all fishing is banned in the national park waters. We had common dolphins swimming alongside and under us for about 40 minutes, then watched from a short distance as they and a flock of gannets and gulls feasted on a shoal of small fish. Watching the gannets dive was almost worth the trip in itself. I really have no hesitation in recommending this.

very good activity, we were the only ones, no boats, the guide is excellent both for her kindness and her skills, we highly recommend her, thank you again

Experience of a lifetime..

We did a morning tour and saw dolphins feeding, close enough they came to the side of the boat. Then we found a massive gyre of trash and stopped to remove it. It took both guides and several people on the tour to remove a ball of plastic trash. We were rewarded with a second sighting of dolphins after for cleaning up! Very nice boat, knowledgable guides!
