If you're looking for a beautiful boat ride at sunset, this is the experience for you. However, if you want a tour that deepens your understanding of the city, this isn't it. **The Good:** - Felipe and his team are very pleasant. - The boat is beautiful. - The views during the ride are stunning. **The Not So Good:** While we were eager to learn about what we were seeing, information was mostly provided only on the return trip. The crew described five landmarks in detail but left us with many unanswered questions. We hoped the tour would give us a sense of Lisbon's layout, major sites, and some history, but it focused on brief descriptions of a few landmarks. Additionally, it wasn't clear before the tour that multiple boats are assigned upon arrival. For my safety-conscious partner, this was a red flag that could have been avoided with a clearer explanation of the check-in process. Drinks are served during the tour, but the wine quality is low and overly sweet. Overall, we don’t regret the trip, but we left with more questions than a deeper understanding of the city.More “boat ride” than “boat tour”

We did the Catamaran sunset cruise. The views were astonishing! And the service was outstanding! I recommend to do this if you have the time. I would repeat anytime all over again. 💯!!!Best sunset in Lisboa!

This sunset boat ride was the best part of our trip! The gentlemen were so kind and helpful during the experience. We enjoyed great wine and a beautiful view of the water. I would recommend this as a must do for anyone in town. The best part of our trip!

I have nothing to say about the trip. However, the winds were very high and the few vessels that went out could not raise their sails because of the winds. Also, it was raining on and off. We were asked if we could reschedule earlier in the day and we said no but to please cancel. He then offered an option we did not want and never cancelled th ed booking . We of course did not show up because of th he very poor conditions. One of our group was a seasoned sailor and said we should not go out.Wanted to take us out in high winds for sailing?

We definitely had a great time on this cruise. Our skipper, Pedro, was very knowledgeable and gave us the whole costal tour of Lisbon. He pointed out many sites followed by an in-depth description and background of each of the sites. He also gave us tips and tricks of sightseeing as well as good places to visit and eat. He also found the perfect spot to watch the sun set. Great sunset cruise

We had a great time sailing with Ricardo's colleague. who also told us a lot about Lisbon and its history. The location was slightly difficult to find, but once on the boat it was a very nice experience! Mariongreat sailing in Lisboa

It was not the experience that we were sold. Ricardo didn’t show up, we were left with a skipper that had very little knowledge of the history behind the monuments. He kep in looking at the clock as if he couldn’t wait for the two hours to be over.It was not as expected

We had such a good time on this sailing trip, however, our guide was Pedro. He was extremely knowledgeable about many different subjects and made our trip safe and pleasurable. I would highly recommend it to see Belem from the waters POV and avoid the huge crowd. Thanks again!Great sailing trip around Lisbon!

Pedro was our captain on this 2 hr cruise on this beautiful night. To see the city from the water was awesome. Our host was so knowledgable about the history of the sights and monuments along the waterfront. Pedro made us feel very comfortable, felt like sailing with a long time friend. Highly recommend this tour. Spectacular view of Lisbon

What is better than being aboard a gorgeous catamaran watching the sunset with a beautiful view of the sights of Lisbon. Yeah, nothing! Then add some champagne to mix and it gets even better. We felt like a million bucks as we were treated by Pedro our host and skipper on the boat. A great way to see the city and learn some history along the way.This is a "don't miss" experience

I have privatized the boat for a morning trip for my boyfriend and I. My boyfriend is mad about sailing and was expecting to take part of the sailing process. But finally the skipper was a bit absent with us and only did his work. We expected to share more with him, as a local. He did not speak much about the city. Besides the trip was cool and the boat was awesome.Nice but it could have been better

My companion and I deeply enjoyed the experience, both the view and the guide. Highly recommended but would suggest including a map instead of just an address. Our Uber driver had a hard time finding the place.Wonderful time with a skilled captain

Beautiful views of Lisbon on a private boat. My parents and I were the only passengers on board and we thought it was a memorable experience. Bruno was our captain ensured a pleasant sailing experience. This is my second time reserving a cruise with this company, and I highly recommend this cruise. A scenic sail

I would rate this experience higher than 5 stars if I could. The team has been nothing but phenomenal from the planning process to the day of. The boat was fantastic - with a hammock like area for us to relax in. The crew on board (Antonio and Josey) took care of us with amazing food, conversation and took some of the best pictures of our trip. The views were scenic and relaxing and highly highly recommended this specific package!Boat ride Ricardo

We are very glad that we booked this boat ride. It was a wonderful way to see another area of Lisbon. The captain was great and the boat was beautiful. The only thing I would suggest is to put specific directions on where to meet up in the notes as soon as someone reserves this experience. Finding the gate at the marina was a bit of a challenge. Once we were there everything was great. A great experience

I'll preface my review with the fact that Lisbon was going through an unusual cold spell for June the week we were there. The temperature, at the start of our tour, was 17C/62F but with the winds on the water, it felt much colder. Had the evening been warmer, the boat ride would certainly have been more pleasant. That said, we were told to meet the boat at the wharf and there was a map on our voucher indicating the location. However, the wharf is quite large and even our cab driver had to ask for directions twice in order to find it. We made it in time with just a few minutes to spare. There were 8 people in total on this tour including ourselves. By 7:15, we were on the water and our "pilot" was getting the welcome drinks for everyone while my husband held the wheel of the boat steady. When you first pull out of the wharf, you pass by container ships, fishing trawlers and boats of all sizes. The Tagus river is very large so it took a while to get close enough to the city center to view the buildings along the coast. It was quite different from our boat ride in Porto where the Douro is much narrower so you can clearly see everything from both sides of the river. The sun was setting around 8:45 so we were already on our way back to the wharf which wasn't the ideal spot to view the sunset. Sunset Sailing Tour in Lisbon

We had a lovely afternoon on the water. Francisco was a great host and very knowledgable. The boat was amazing and super comfortable. It was a great way to spend time with the family together and view Lisbon from the water! Highly recommended!Lovely afternoon on the water

This was a nice cruise but beware the location can be difficult to find-our taxi driver let us off at the wrong dock and we walked a quarter mile or more. Thank goodness for google maps. But even so once there the gate was hard to see. But once there we enjoyed. They also do longer cruises which include a meal and I would have liked that. Lots of fun and beautiful way to see LisbonVery enjoyble but——

The tour was a highlight of our weekend in Lisbon, it allows to see the from a different perspective, one of the best monents was to see the bridge from under and the possibility to celebrate with a drink. The staff was beyond any expectations: the reason is that I mistakely booked in the wrong date and realized that when it was too late. The staff managed to find another boat for the next day altough they were full and without any extra cost. Thank you so much to all the staff!Great experience and service

My husband and I booked this tour and were excited about a new experience. Our hosts - online and captain day of - were very friendly and welcoming. We were a little late due to some directional challenges. Piece of advice - make sure you have very specific directions to give your taxi driver because there are two docks. The boat was bigger than I expected and they had blankets for us which was a nice touch along with beer and wine selection. The captain, Felipe, was so nice to talk to about the history and other fun facts of our tour. He left us alone and then talked to us when we wanted to which was nice. I would highly recommend this tour and experience! Amazing Experience: Surpassed Expectations

Ricardo delivered a lovely sunset memory for my client's grand finale evening in Lisbon. He's super easy to communicate with, reliable, and funny. Perfect grand finale evening

Fabian🇩🇪 Germany

Ricardo himself was very friendly and helpful, but he did not go on the boat with us. The name of our skipper was Rodrigo and we believe that he had a hangover from last night. He was very sparing of words. He didn't explain much and only put the sail up after we asked him to do so. Nevertheless we had a very nice trip with good winds and nice views oaf Lisboa and the bridges and the bay. He steered the boat securely back home. In summary it was a nice experience but we would have wished the host to be more communicative...Sailing experience

So much fun in the boat and a Fantastic way to see lisbon from the water - just like people from centuries before us ! Our skipper was on the job and as the wind caught the sails and the boat lay over we couldn't believe our luck to be in a private fifty footer Sailing the seas in lisbon

We had a wonderful cruise with Felipe as our skipper. He was informative and welcoming and it was a pleasure to see beautiful Lisbon from the water. We were celebrating a birthday and our skipper was happy to serve us a drink and allow us to have a bit of fun! We were a little disappointed that our start time was changed from 6.30pm to a 5pm start as a sunset tour was our preferred option but that did not detract from our enjoyable experience. Obrigada Felipe. 🌊😘 x ObrigadaFun and interesting with a charming skippe

My friend and I embarked on the sunset cruise with Hydalgo as our captain and we had the best time! The boat was comfortable, Hydalgo offered a complimentary beverage to my friend and I and also shared interesting information about the sites we could see from our boat. Hydalgo also provided helpful recommendations about places that my friend and I had not yet explored in Lisbon. He was very knowledgeable, friendly, and provided a relaxing sailing experience for my friend and I to enjoy the sunset. I highly recommend this cruise as well as Hydalgo as the captain. Additionally, Ricardo was kind enough to give my friend and I a ride down the street to this one neighborhood that featured a lot of restaurants and nightlife since he was also dropping off another group in the same area. Sunset Cruise was amazing!
