Customer reviews of tours in Lisbon

Very nice crew, free drink ok, seats and view were also ok. The music style was ok, but way too loud on deck! The ship is a bit old, but well maintained. You should think about warm clothing at this time of year. It is very windy and cold on the ship! Unfortunately, the captain turned away shortly before sunset and went back. But we were back on time.

Despite the bad weather, the welcome was warm, the staff very friendly. A good atmosphere, the city tour is great to see. The walk offers us a panoramic view of all the important monuments of the city, as a bonus the sunset adds charm to the excursion. A drink is offered as a welcome, the barmaid was adorable. Unfortunately we had rain, but a fallback solution was offered to us, we took the walk inside the boat, which took nothing away from the beauty. Plaids are available in case of cold.

We had such fun! We went for a hen party and unfortunately the weather wasn’t great but the crew was so kind and brought all the tables and chairs down stairs and we had a great time with great music!

no changes. small interaction with staff but the views, drinks and cost couldn't be improved.

Very pleasant, a good time spent for a very pleasant price, a small drink offered, wine, beer, Gin and tonic, ... However, the meeting place is very poorly indicated, the nearest tram station would seem to me a minimum (Cais Rocha), with tram 15E from Commercio square or Figueras.

Really nice activity!! You have wine, hard liquor, and sodas available. The people on board were really nice 10/10 experience

Rafael was by far the best guide! We love it and hope to be back with him.

we loved the historic boat. the crew were very friendly and helpful

We booked for a hen and the whole team made the night amazing for our Bride to Be! Highly recommend

A lovely relaxed and comfortable cruise along the Tagus as the sun set with views of the Elizabeth Bridge and Christ the Redeemer statue. The crew were friendly and helpful and they served some welcome white port from the bar.

The sunset cruise was a great activity. We witnessed a beautiful sunset while cruising the river. The music was great and not too loud. The DJ played to the crowd. I would definitely recommend. Oh and the staff were fantastic.

The activity started late, and the boat is rather small, but it's a really nice cruise along the river. The music and the atmosphere is very fun, and the drinks are cheap.

Spontaneously, because the sun ☀️ still promised a lot, we booked the experience. We set off with a bit of a delay. DJ's music was very good - we liked it. Past the sights, where we stopped specifically to take photos. 2 bachelorette farewells created an exuberant atmosphere. We were able to take beautiful pictures and enjoyed our time on board.

The best, the sunset on the river and the music during the tour. The boat is quite old and the variety of drinks is quite limited for the price you pay.

Would highly recommend this. It was the perfect ending to our amazing holiday.

Easy to find the pier. Easy check in and wait. Boat on time. Plenty of seats. Good crowd. Nice cruise down river under Golden Gate and beyond then back. Great views. First drinks free and early, subsequent drinks paid. DJ just twiddled the nobs but good Brazilian playlist. Nice start to our short break in Lisbon. (City center walking tour next morning). Outstanding.

absolutely stunning. the dj was so much fun and had great energy. the scenery was incredible.

Bring a jacket, it was a little chilly the night we went. The staff gave out blankets which was a life safet! A very experienced staff and tour guides.

What a fun experience! The sailing was amazing and the staff was even better. They were so knowledgeable about the city and gave the best details about landmarks we were passing. If you love being on the water to see the city from a different perspective- this is for you!

Amazing sunset cruise with beautiful views of Portugal and the sunset. Sebastian and Tiego were very knowledgeable about Portugal’s history. Would definitely recommend!

While I can't write about the sailing tour experience, we were caught in the miiddle of electricity outage across Portugal and Spain and unable to make our tour. I can tell you about working with the company "Lisbon by Boat". I can't speak highly enough about this company!!! They reached out to us after our missed opportunity, offering options for us to proceed. Ricardo C. was great to work with and helped us above and beyond!! A complete 5 star experience!!!

Loved the entire tour! Great tour guides and got to learn a bit more about Lisbon and Portugal history. Definitely recommend doing this!

"Christina was amazing. Crew did everything to assure our comfort. A little cold but well worth the experience. Christina was both entertaining and knowledgeable. Would recommend this experience to anyone who wants an enjoyable and educational evening. "

Obviously it’s very weather dependent but it’s a lovely night out on the water and our tour guides were so lovely and funny!

Lively tour run by super interesting people! Huge fan! Beautiful sights and great weather this time of year, I would highly recommend to any travelers.

Very knowledgeable and friendly. Treated us like friends. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting Lisbon

Gorgeous and well-run! A beautiful way to experience Lisbon. Lovely boat and exceptional crew. Highly recommend.

"This Lisbon sunset cruise was even better than we could have imagined! The Captain and first mate were so attentive and friendly. The captain was so knowledgeable and explained all of the city basically to us along the way down the beautiful river. It was fun, educational, and very relaxing! I want to come back to Lisbon and take a longer tour with them again. Don’t hesitate! Book this tour You won’t regret it!"

We loved it. Miguel is such a gifted sailor and Benny wowed us with her skills as well as her wonderful stories and history of Lisboa! We HIGHLY RECOMMEND this tour. It was our favorite by far.

Loved this! It was a chilly, windy evening but blankets were provided if needed. Benny and John were professional and it was a great way to see another perspective of Lisbon from the water.

"The guys were lovely, nice relaxed tour along the river ground of Lisbon. The crew were very knowledgeable and attentive, nice to actually sail on a sailing tour. Would recommend doing this to see the sights and get away from the crowds. "

Our captain and first mate were excellent. They explained the landmarks but also answered our many questions thoroughly. Our trip was a little chilly as skies were overcast. Still it was a delightful time. There were just about 12-14 of us.

"What a once in a lifetime experience! The boat was fantastic and we had sails up the entire time (no cheating with engines running). To see the coast of Lisbon with some history and drinks thrown in makes for an unforgettable time!"

Loved everything about this! Boat hands and captain were wonderful and accommodating. Sunset was perfect and they gave me a lot of information!

Amazing experience!!! Beny and Leonor were an excellent crew! 100% recommended, the sunset, the water, the boat, the wine!

Telma and Mario were fantastic! Telma was knowledgeable about the area and she made sure we got beautiful photos. Highly recommend!

"We did the small group sunset tour with Alex and Francisco, and it was absolutely fantastic! They made a great team—welcoming, knowledgeable, and super attentive. The boat was very comfortable, and they even had blankets on board in case it got chilly during the sunset. Cruising along the Tagus River, we were treated to stunning views of Lisbon from the water. The two-hour tour was the perfect length, and along the way, Alex and Francisco shared fascinating insights about the city's landmark monuments and even gave us some great local restaurant recommendations. We brought our kids along, and they were wonderful with them—very friendly, engaging, and patient. We wrapped up the tour with soft drinks and some delicious Vinho Verde. It was a beautiful, relaxing, and memorable experience. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Lisbon!"

If you have a couple of hours to spare whilst in Lisbon this river trip is a great way to chill out and take a break from the busy streets and see some of Lisbon’s other sights and landmarks from the water . Well worth the money

cruise was nice. boat is well maintained and clean. and spacious. I wish they had stopped play music while giving the intros to the sights that were intended for sightseeing cruise. duration could be shorter too . 1 hour is enough. the boat come to the starting point at 1 hour and did another 30 min loop

Amazing picturesque root, very friendly staff, clean boat, bar with plenty of options for drinks :) Enjoyed it a lot, highly recommended!

Great value for money, the tboat trip lasted 90mins like advertised. Plenty time to take amazing photos of all of the parts you’re promised to see. The only downfall is there was nobody actually telling us what we’re looking at etc or what the history is behind it, but I would definitely recommend! You can buy refreshments ok the boat also, which was amazing!

Promot, friendly service with free audio guide. Limited snacks available but friendly staff & enjoyable mini cruise

excellent river trip relaxing and commentary informative. friendly staff. very good value too!

Everything was as described and it was nice to enjoy Lisbon from the water. In my opinion, the duration of the cruise was perfect! Not too long and not too short. It was really possible to enjoy the views and not get bored. The only remark, the coffee on board was very bad, I did not taste anything else.

Very pleasant walk on the Taje. This allows you to discover Lisbon from another angle and take very beautiful photos! From the Commerce Square, to the Belem Tower, with Christo del Rei on the way back, we didn't see the time passing. Perfect activity to do as a family. We were unlucky with the weather, gray, mist and rain, but since the boat could be completely covered, it was ideal for enjoying the ride while staying dry!

Very pleasant activity to have a different view of Lisbon and the different monuments!!! The staff on board are very friendly and the boat is very comfortable. I recommend.

It was calm and nice trip. But in order to use guide you need to bring headphones with you, but no one tells about it. Music was unbeatable cool, so I enjoyed views and music.

Great river cruise with amazing views. The ship and bathroom were spotless and clean! Easy access from the metro line.

this activity was nice, too bad we didn't have an explanation about the different monuments and others that we saw!!!! The walk was still nice with great sunshine!!!!

It was a nice tour, friendly guide and happy with the provided beverage.

To test ! I highly recommend 😅 the staff is so nice, I loved this experience so much! Habibi ❤️

We did the sunset cruise. Super relaxing and our guides were very knowledgeable, both sharing information and answering questions. Enjoying a bottle of wine while seeing Lisbon and the sunset made for a perfect evening. The boat was clean and the guides were on top of service.

The guide made us learn about the history of Lisbon and made recommendations for places and restaurants, I really enjoyed it

Few exchanges and activities from the guide, which is a shame, it lacked atmosphere and explanations about the monuments, otherwise the outing was nice.

Everything was perfect, the guys were very friendly at all times. recommendable

Fab tour! Beautiful yacht. Great guides, very friendly and gave us lots of interesting information about the city. Would recommend and would do again.

Guide nice and friendly. Sympathetic group. Boat ride OK. UNFORTUNATELY IT WAS FAKE SAILING! We motored and didn't sail. Well, I wanted to sail, had different expectations and was disappointed. Only one of the many providers sailed correctly. Next time I would book him!

Everything was wonderful! A beautiful trip to take along the Tagus River. Riding a sailboat adds a special charm to the city and is a lot of fun! I went with my father, who is 70 years old, and he loved it, he went around the sailboat and had a lot of fun. An unmissable tour!

It was good half day seeing an amazing place from boat and also experience through walking.

The crew was really friendly. You could see a lot of sights and the audio guide explained everything there is to know. You could also choose between a wine and something non alcoholic. It was a really nice tour that we can recommend a 100% :)

The audio guide via the app wasn't very good. You always passed the sights faster than the guide could talk. Unfortunately, the automatic playback didn't work very well. You saw everything, but unfortunately the tour wasn't very good.

A great way to see all the landmarks without having to run around the city. We had done walking tours early on, but this was much more enjoyable. Comes with an audio guide that was very informative, and it was pleasant to sit up top with the breeze. FYI, it requested to arrive 10 min early but we found there was another boat still waiting to load up. The trip actually takes off 20 minutes after scheduled time.

It was amazing to see Lisbon from the water. Wish there were more outdoor seats

Just the right length for the tour. Staff was very kind. Scenery was excellent.

Easy to find the departure point unlike some cruises which can be a bit chaotic. The cruise was comfortable and informative and there were several points of interest along the way.

Excellent, the staffs where very welcoming and have good hospitality knowledge always approaching with a smile... Keep it up

It was very great and cozy. The staff was very nice and it was a great value for the money!

A nice way to see the city from the river and to enjoy sunset. Very affordable!

Is a must for a sightseeing in Lisbon! Highly recommended. Cheapest to book online and all the staff are friendly and helpful

"It was great to travel right under the Ponte 25 de Abril and to get nearer to see the Christi Rei. The boat gave us the opportunity to see and appreciate Lisbon from a different angle, which was great! "

"We had such a nice time leisurely boating with Lisbon Yellow Boat. We launched on time and took a round trip of the harbor which lasted almost two hours. The staff and servers were great and the views of Lisbon from the boat were excellent. Also, the cost of the tour per-person was VERY reasonably. I highly recommend, especially if you have kids. Great way to spend quality time together. "

Nice relaxing way to see the city from the river. Worth doing. Lovely cool breeze off the sea. Only negative was unnecessary loud and repetitive background music between information.

Bit of delay getting started but crew all cheerful and polite. Good bar service on board excellent commentary. Slightly soporific music on return journey....or was that the drink on the way out!

Great views of the city and the opposite side.Four stops in total, 2 in Belém. Photo opportunities for tower and monument to discoveries from the sea. Regular boat service so time to explore and return at leisure. I used the cruise to travel to and from Belém spending many hours there. Recommend this trip.

Excellent way to see the beautiful city of Lisbon from the river and Belem area, nice and relaxed atmosphere with lots of photo opportunities on route, I'd recommend we really enjoyed it

The crew was very warm, supportive and friendly. The journey was smooth inspite of the continuous drizzle both ways.

Nice and relax way to go visit Belem. Very professional and friendly staff. Recommended for half day Belem visit.

Shorter than expected and quite boring to be honest. I really expected more. At least a little bit of history sharing from the guide or something. It was nothing more than a public transport ferry

Catarina very sunny and passionate, explains with great competence the life of dolphins and other animals that live in the ocean. Comfortable and safe boat. Thanks for this beautiful experience

The comfort on board the boat makes the activity less pleasant than expected. The seats hurt the buttocks very badly and this is a point of improvement to work on

It was a dreamlike experience!! If you want to see dolphins close with a knowledgeable guide than don’t think about it, book it! Maybe, you see more than only dolphins! Yet, how close the came and swam around our speedboat was magnificent !! If we came back, we do it again. Any money worth it. We never forget this. Thank you!

This is an amazing experience and definitely something to remember. We were lucky enough to have Catarina as our guide, she was friendly and very knowledgeable. We were able to see dolphins in the first 10 minutes and was talked through the species and Catarina was open and inviting any and all questions. I would urge you to take this trip, it’s something I have never experience before and was in awe and wonder the whole way round. Thank you to Catarina and her crew.

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

Super chill guide and boat. We saw lots of dolphins, 2 different kinds. Great trip

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

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.

Both the guide and the skipper were nice and pleasant. The guide was professional and answered all the questions we had. It took awhile until we've found dolphins but when we did it was an amazing experience!

The tour was amazing! Everything was perfectly planned from start to finish. The team, Nigel and Fernando, were approachable, well organized and took excellent care of us. There were detailed explanations of all kinds, we were allowed to move freely on the ship and were well entertained. Both have individually adapted to the different guests, so that the trip was more than successful. It was an unforgettable highlight of our trip to Lisbon! Greetings from Kristin and Sandra

We booked on the basis of previous reviews. It didn’t disappoint and was the highlight of our 4 day trip in Lisbon. Really Lovely chaps who gave an informative experience of where to go/what to do. Would 100% recommend and we would rebook in a heartbeat. Thank you!

This is a lovely two hour cruise with champagne and snacks. Nigel the boat captain is a great guy, very accommodating, as was the other staff member on the boat. It was chilly by the time the sun was setting because our cruise was from 7 to 9 PM and they even had blankets on board. All around Great activity. Low-key, nice sites to see, drink champagne on the river,

Nigel & Rui are class acts and spoil you with an evening of champagne, snacks & beautiful views of sunset on the river. Highly recommend this activity if you travel to Lisbon. Eat dinner at one of the great restaurants at the marina before you sail too. This is a must-do for your visit.

Boat was well maintained. Host was cordial. Food was warm and drinks were good.

Superb service. Small group experience. Fernando, our captain was laid back, informative and great company.. the snacks were served warm and delicious, bottomless bubbly and white wine were great compliment. An excellent way to just sit back and chill without a care in the world.

This was exactly what I needed! A relaxing sail with delicious wine and snacks, a great company. It’s a great way to get a full view of the city from the river and view beautiful landmarks. The captain and crew were super gracious and knowledgeable. I highly recommend!

There was no tour guide and the staff was not informed of what was included when I asked for a drink.

The excursion went very well, the staff on board very friendly. However, I have reservations about the organization at the dock, where the meeting point is not very clear, and having to look for a paper ticket to board edge seems silly to me as we have an e-ticket with QR code.

Everything went smoothly on the ship. The ship followed the specified route and an audio guide (app on your cell phone) provided information about the various points of interest. The staff was friendly and helpful. Everything else (the sunset) was left up to nature—we were lucky with the weather.

Lovely cruise across the Tagus river. It's not obvious that the only way to get the audio guide is to use the QR code on some of the tables. Also, I did not enjoy how on the way back we were closer to the Almada side than the Lisbon side of the river.

There was no guide… Service was a bit disorganized, but the snacks were better than I expected I was alone and felt like I was ignored by the drink server, as a result

Highly recommend. Can get chilly on the top deck so take a jacket/jumper

The trip was very good, the route is great. The sunset brought all the magic to the banks of the Tagus. The staff are very friendly and approachable. The only negative thing to point out is the fact that they advertise drinks and snacks as something free, when they only offer 1 drink per person, and the snacks board - whose quantities are just for the eyes to eat. They could be more honest, like the other entities, who stress that they only offer 1 welcome drink

It was boring and slow and the guide did not tell anything. Boat was really good and cozy. Could have been better

It was a lovely boat journey to catch sunset, but there was hardly any guidance on the different tourist attractions we went past

The boat ride experience was a life long memory for me and my spouse. The departure to the Tigris River was on time, and though it was windy the ride was still comfortable. The hostesses offered complimentary drinks and snacks. The captain of the boat made sure to cruise near landmarks along the river to ensure photos could be taken for memories as well. There was music on the background and the vibe was nice and chill. We had two younger children (4&6) and they enjoyed it as well. Overall awesome time and would recommend!

Simple ride, would’ve liked music on the ride but otherwise service and boat nice

Good trip, provided drinks and snacks. Good trip up and down river not many sights to see but was nice to do.

It was a very nice sailboat trip. Eduardo and his girl friend were very kind and welcoming. We enjoyed the sunset along with snacks, drinks and very hype music. It is a bit expensive but we enjoyed it. Highly recommend it.

Very enjoyable cruise with wine and Charcuterie. The weather and sunset were incredunless.

A lovely sail boat. The captain and his crew where brilliant. Told us all the tales/history and stories as we sailed. Very attentive care with everything from start to finish. The wine abs nibbles where lovely too. We did this as a special treat for my husbands birthday. It didn’t disappoint. Would highly recommend

Of course, I especially liked the sunset. The skipper let the boat sail relaxed into the sunset, so that you could fully enjoy it. I had the luxury of sailing alone with him. He wasn't too pushy. Exactly to my liking. If necessary, you could ask him anything, or just enjoy quietly.

This is the best sailingtrip you can book on the Tejo of Lisbon. Tati and the captain were the most kind people and the boat is exquisite and one of its kind. The wine and the bites and the stories about the history of Lisbon really made the whole adventure. The sunset at the end is the most romantic you will have on your trip. Make this beautiful booking happen, you wont regret it!

Fabulous experience and so many positive emotions!!! We saw many dolphins and birds! Views of the ocean are spectacular, jumping on the waves was really fun, too! We recommend!

The guides were very friendly funny and knowledgeable. We felt like it was very good value for our money and afterwards we got to and have lunch on the pier right next door. They treated us to tea and pastel de nata afterwards and gave me coffee before and after. They also took us to see the belem tower and the other monuments in the area on the way back. We saw dolphins and a whale. It was a great day.

the experience was truly wonderful. we were able to watch dolphins as well as the super rare mink whale plus 4 of sun fish. so our day was truly made. The guide allowed the kids to come in front of boat to see the dolphins up close who had come next to boat. would definitely recommend to everyone

"First of all: I highly recommend this tour! We saw dolphins. It was amazing! The guide and skipper were also great. The only thing that bothered me was the noise on the speedboat, which sounded like we were on a roller coaster. The tour operator could perhaps do something about this by slowing down a little when going over the waves. With different passengers, it might have been fine without all the screaming. If you don't want to be shaken around too much, it's best to sit at the back. CONCLUSION: Overall, highly recommended "

The excursion was great! The highlight of our vacation. The dolphins were very close to our boat. The team was super friendly. We first drove along the coast and then to the dolphins. There we spent about 30 minutes with the dolphins, they must not be disturbed for too long while hunting. The boat is very fast and the ride alone was a lot of fun! We absolutely loved it. In any case, don't forget to apply sunscreen beforehand. Jacket makes sense if you get cold easily, on the open sea it got a bit chilly.

It was an amazing tour. The crew is often well-versed in the local marine life, providing fascinating information about the dolphins’ behaviors, habits, and the efforts to protect their environment. The atmosphere is relaxed, but the thrill of being so close to wild dolphins is undeniable. Definitely recommend.

I LOVED this activity! It did not disappoint. I read a lot of reviews before booking this tour and was very impressed that it said 95% of the time, dolphins and other wildlife were sighted. Our boat driver was Francesco, and he handled the boat carefully and had some fun with us while driving. Our marine biologist guide was Vanessa and she was full of great information. We were very lucky and got to see a few different pods of dolphins, with babies and mamas. We heard our boat communicating with others as to where the wildlife was and that made it much easier for our boat to find the dolphins in the wild. I HIGHLY recommend this tour to everyone if you are into marine life, and seeing animals in their natural habitat.

Little kids can get sea-sick, other than that, it was a great tour.

The activity was very well organised and well run. We managed to see a whole group of dolphins and the guides knew what they were talking about and how to find them - very knowledgeable. Would have been good to know slightly more information and have more interaction with the host whilst on the water but it was a great experience.

This was one of the greatest things I have ever witnessed in my 28 years on this planet. Our guides were very knowledgeable and told us the type of dolphins we might be able to see before heading out onto the river. We quickly found a pod of nursery Common dolphins where the guide took us up very close which was incredible to see. We then ventured into the ocean where we met a pod of 60-70 bottlenose dolphins. Amazing. They got so close to us and even played with the boat. This was 10000% the best thing we've done on this trip. Highly recommended

It was a real disappointment because this tour should have been cancelled due to bad weather. There were no other boats operating on the same day because of rough seas. Yet we were taken out only to turn back abandoning the entire experience.

We had a memorable dolphin-watching tour. The tour was well organized. From the moment we set out, the friendly and knowledgeable guide made the experience even more enjoyable with interesting facts about dolphins and their environment. We were lucky enough to see many dolphins during the trip, and watching them leap and play in the water was truly magical.

It was great. The staff was very nice and we had great welcome drinks. The boat was very nice and comfortable for a small group. There is an inside of the boat and a nice couch area at the back in addition to the bow. 10/10 would recommend.

It was good. The staff was very nice and we had great welcome drinks. The boat was very nice and comfortable for a small group. There is an inside of the boat and a nice couch area at the back in addition to the bow. 8/10 would recommend.

Simply fantastic experience and even better with our amazing guides! Would highly recommend and one of the highlights of our trip to Lisbon celebrating a 50th bday. A 100% must do!!!

Great evening with family and music on the river.. skipper and the team were brilliant

The cruise was an amazing experience. The views are incredible and the crew was extremely friendly and welcoming. Since we were a couple, they asked us whether we wanted to have them tell us about all the monuments or not. They have a little selection of drinks on board you can buy. They offer a speaker so you can play your music as well as blankets ! Great experience!!!

We had perfect weather so we enjoyed the scenic views thoroughly. The boat was well maintained. We were offered drinks and blankets upon arrival. Our captain wasn't so much a tour guide as in he didn't give us any insight or information to the monuments we passed but I'm not sure if this service was advertised. Overall, just expect a relaxing sail down the targus river, weather permitting.

We went as a birthday celebration and had a wonderful time. Pedro was our captain and was extremely insightful. We had great conversation but still had a lot of privacy. Views were amazing, boat was really nice and everything very well organized.

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.

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!

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.

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!

I liked the guide, they were very friendly and welcoming. I enjoyed seeing the historical landmarks during the cruise.

everything was well organised. the meeting point and the whole experience in general. the beer and sangria was EXCELLENT!! The staff were friendly and professional (max 2 people outside at the front of the boat for example) would have been great to see dolphins but again we know they are wild animals so there is no guarantee. we appreciate the effort that the crew made to try and find them for us. overall, it's an activity that we would do again.

Had such a lovely relaxing trip, absolutely gorgeous scenery. Refreshments were flowing , the Tour Guide was awesome with her constant knowledge of the surroundings which was amazing..unfortunately didn’t see any Dolphins but that’s wildlife for you and it didn’t dampen the trip.. Thank you

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

comfortable boat trip with lots of information. Unfortunately the dolphins were on vacation.

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

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!

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.

It was an amazing experience and guide was super kind. Absolutely to recommend. We now new more about dolphins

Wonderful wildlife tour in the heart of Lisbon. Great guides, great trip, amazing dolphins. Highly recommended!

An amazing experience. The attendants were very friendly and professional. Thanks to them. We had the chance to see a lot of dolphins, it was exceptional. Thanks

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 !

"Absolutely amazing experience on the boat! Our guide, Ines was very knowledgeable and respectful of the dolphins. I thoroughly enjoyed learning about the different species. We saw so many dolphins and even got to see some up close. The experience was capped off by treats provided in the lounge. All the staff were super nice! "

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!

The tour guide is a competent marine biologist. She spoke slowly and clearly, and used humor well. She was very patient, informative and interesting. The driver was warm and friendly, and we felt safe while he drove the speedboat. We saw dolphins and a sunfish, which was amazing. A ten out of ten experience that I'd strongly recommend. Well worth the money.

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.

The staff were very informative and helpful. We were lucky enought to see a Whale and bottle nose dolphins.

"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."

Wow! We did the Dolphin watching tour and had a lot of fun. Within the almost three hours we saw a couple of dolphins. Our guides Mario and Andrei told us stories - not only about dolphins. Our two kids had their probably most fun biology lesson of their life. We highly recommend taking this tour!

The naturalist, Christiana, and captain, Mario, were excellent and well informed guides. They found a large pod of dolphins for us to enjoy. Afterwards they do a quick tour of the coast and share a yummy treat and wine. The day had storm clouds and it sprinkled a little. Don’t let a little rain scare you off. They won’t go if not safe. Amazing boat trip and fun since a fast boat and not a traditional boat.

Our guide Martha was truly so sweet and knowledgeable! We had a fantastic time with her. For about two hours, it looked like we wouldn‘t find any dolphins, but the crew didn‘t give up, and at the last minute, they spotted a pod which we then followed for a while (though keeping our distance as to not stress the dolphins, and letting them come to us). Everybody on the team was extremely kind, and it was fantastic to see that the animals are treated with respect. We definitely recommend taking this tour! But be sure to adjust your expectations – these are wild animals, and whether you‘ll be able to see them is up to them, not the people on the boat :) Worst case, you get a boat tour through a beautiful bit of nature, looking at crystal clear water.

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!

Transport véhicule to arrabida was terrible, not only there was no air condition but we also had to Travel with the motor lid open, it could not close!

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!

Great fun, your guides were fantastic and managed to see so many dolphins. Great fun with the kids. Quick trip to the cave was a nice surpri

Comfortable pick up from/to Lisboa. Boat ride was comfortable, however those with sea sickness may need pills before ride, or prepare some bags. We manage to see a few groups of dolphins, some even swam beside our boat. And we were super lucky to even see whales! Awesome and super friendly guides all round, they are great with kids too.

We enjoyed the sailing trip. It was a nice way to spend couple of hours in Lisbon, while hearing about life there and Portugal in general from a wonderful captain. This is a great activity for a family with younger kids who will need a little break from walking and enjoy seeing the town from the river. We would do this again.

One of the best things I did while in Lisbon. Such a great way to see the sights along the river from a different perspective. Crew were very friendly and helpful. The catamaran was spacious and clean. While technically there was no guide, the crew were happy to answer any questions, so we could just relax and enjoy the views and the sailing.

An excellent experience, as listed by others. The enthusiasm and knowledge by the crew was fantastic, as were the sights and sounds experienced on the boat. Blankets once the sun had set and things got a little chilly were very welcome, overall a memorable and highly recommended experience.

This was a very enjoyable sailing tour. The crew was nice and friendly and we had excellent views of the Belem Tower, Monument of the Discoveries and Lisbon. As this was the short (1 hour) tour, we sailed past the bridge toward Lisbon and then quickly turned back, but it was an hour very well spent and very enjoyable. We were with kids (aged 8 & 10) and had no issues. Perhaps it was better that we took the short tour considering that the kids had no time to get bored! We were lucky with the weather too, which helped make this an excellent experience.

I would recommend this tour. The crew, Jao and Bruno were exceptional. They were very hospitable and knowledgeable- just as we had come to expect of the wonderful people of Portugal. The sail boat was comfortable and Jao was very accommodating for picture taking. I can’t say enough good about them. I booked this tour because of the reviews so you won’t be disappointed if you choose this one.

A very good time on the sailboat at sunset, the view of the city and the monuments from Belém to Lisbon are superb! The crew on the boat is particularly welcoming, and offers a drink to enjoy the experience even more! I highly recommend this activity (suitable for all ages and small groups or families), thank you to the two Franciscos for their contagious good humor and their touristic explanations along the ride!

We did this as a family of 5 with 3 kids ages 8, 10, 13. Process was very organized! Boat was excellent - clean, lots of room, a bathroom, blankets, and a fun hammock net over the water that the kids loved. Crew was nice and friendly! One drink was included which was enjoyable, plus you could buy additional. Slight downside was that this was “sightseeing” only - no verbal explanations of what we were looking at unless you asked crew specifically, but I think this was mentioned in description.

An absolute must. Incredibly beautiful and an absolute highlight for the price. The city of Lisbon appears from a completely different perspective. Fantastic thanks Philipp 😉👍

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.

Absolutely fantastic experience! The boat trip on the Tagus River offered breathtaking views of Lisbon's iconic landmarks like the Belem Tower and the Christ the King statue. The crew was friendly, knowledgeable, and ensured a smooth sailing throughout. It's a must-do activity for anyone visiting Lisbon, offering the city's beauty from the water. Highly recommend!

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.

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.

The best we could have done! Sich a nice crew and amazing trip! Highly recommended!

I highly recommend. Great experience. Wonderful guides, nice atmosphere and local stories.
