    Absolutely wonderful experience that is definitely worth the money!! We did the 4:30-6:30 boat ride on a Sunday afternoon, and both the captain and hostess were extremely friendly. The beautiful scenery coupled with delicious Portuguese wine & cheese made for a romantic experience we will never forget. I'd give ten stars if I could.

    Seeing Lisbon from the river Tagus helps to understand the idiosyncratic relationship between them. Unforgettable couple of hours, with a genuine friendly crew, with the added touch of nibbles. Can’t recommend enough.

    The boat was great, the guides were so kind, and the food and wine was great. It says one drink but my group each probably had 4 drinks. Super easy to find and book, and people of all ages were on the boat.

    This experience was the highlight of our time in Portugal! The crew treated us so special and made our evening one to remember forever. Being they grew up in Portugal, they presented us with so much history and you could tell they appreciate tourists and are proud to share history of their beautiful Country. The sunset cruise is spectacular and they brought blankets to keep us warm in the coolness of the evening. The wine and cheese were a nice bonus as we enjoyed the sights. They also gladly shared insights of areas of Portugal not typically known by tourists. Thank you Sebastian and Tomas for your incredible gift of an amazing evening!

    On the Tejo for a sunset tour, there is no better way to experience Lisbon in the evening. You can see many sights and the Christo statue is also beautifully illuminated. Can only be recommended 100%.

    Well, everything was amazing since we departed ‘til we came back to the port. Crew were fantastic, very social and informative, while the tour itself is worth it 100%. They provided us with a beautiful drink onboard which I really appreciate and some cheese as well. Definitely recommend taking this 2h tour with these guys; you’re awesome!

    We took the sunset cruise and thoroughly enjoyed our experience. Our guide Carlos was very knowledgeable about the history of the monuments and city, and was very easy to chat with. He always made sure our drink glasses were full, took photos for us, and even took off the coat from his back for two young children when the ride became chilly. Epitome of Portuguese hospitality and class. The views were beautiful and the ride was peaceful. Highly recommend!

    I’ve done more than a few urban boat tours around the world, and this was the best I’ve done. Sebastian was a great captain and tour guide, full of information and wit. The sights were beautiful, of course, but it was the crew that made this experience so unforgettable. One of the top highlights of our two weeks in Portugal. Highest recommendation.

    Overall, great excursion! Paulo and Cristina were great, entertaining guides. I'm always amazed at how many languages our guides have been able to speak! Unfortunately, and probably because I didn't pay enough attention to the exact address and I didn't give us enough time to get there (Uber) from our hotel, we barely made it on time. We were dropped off in the wrong area of the docks and literally arrived either exactly at the departure time or a minute or two late. There was an option to add 'drinks' for the excursion, this would be on top of the one free drink you get (beer or wine). Initially, I'd selected no to that as it's only a 2 hr trip and we weren't out to get drunk. They asked again when we arrived and we decided sure, ok, and it was EUR$20 for 2 Sagres; pretty excessive for 2 beer. We did get some beautiful pictures of the sunset on the river Tagus.

    We did the sunset boat tour with wine and cheese on the last night of our visit to Lisbon. It was such a great evening! It was a small group, 8 passengers total plus the crew that operated the boat and talked to us about the sites we were seeing during the cruise. We made friends with the other passengers on the boat with us, and it was a very memorable way to end our trip. Bonus, they really kept the wine flowing!

    Incredible experience! The crew was amazing and made the tour exceptional! You have to see Lisbon from the water! You won’t regret it!

    Fantastic night. Sunset sailing was perfect Sebastian and tomas were excellent. The views, commentary, service, weather, etc made for a trip highlight. I would use Lisbon by boat again.

  • 5/5 Clara H. 3 weeks ago on Google • 4 reviews New
    We had an amazing evening! It was beautiful, the service was fantastic and especially Sebastian was very friendly and shared his huge knowledge about the city with us. I advise to take the tour with drinks (it’s actually with refill:))

    An amazing experience! Wholeheartedly thanks a lot for a nice evening! Don’t hesitate to book - you will see Lisbon from another prospective. Sunset views are breathtaking and the crew was super friendly, welcoming and nice.

    I've had a very good experience, even unfortunately I didn't feel well for the heat in Lisboa today, but I think it's very worth. Sebastian - the captain, is very very professional. I'm so glad that I didn't cancel the tour. I will definitely come back and I wished I could still find him.

    Had a wonderful time with this company! We did the 2 hour Lisbon by Boat Tour and really enjoyed it. The tour was not crowded and we had enough room to spread out. The boat itself was beautiful and very clean. We opted to have a few extra drinks and the wine served was cold and delicious. I appreciated the little history remarks at each landmark - really a wonderful way to see the city. It was so easy to book online and I would definitely recommend!

  • 5/5 William H. 1 year ago on Google
    Lovely experience seeing Lisbon from the Tagus River! Even if you have seen the city other ways, seeing it by boat is uniquely enjoyable. Our guide and our skipper were excellent, and I learned a lot about Lisbon and Portugal.

  • 5/5 Sylvia P. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing experience, fantastic crew and very well arranged. We were with a group of 40 people and they totally had the best experience of their trip! Thanks a lot Ricardo and see you next time.

  • 5/5 Gergely G. 1 year ago on Google
    Wonderful sunset cruise from Belém tower to Lisbon and back. The staff was very friendly and knowleadgable, made sure everyone was comfortable, helped with photo ops and offered green wine and snacks. A must-do experience!

  • 5/5 Richard B. 2 years ago on Google
    This was a great 2 hours. Money well spent. Very affordable. I highly recommend this tour. It’s a must. Great sightseeing in a nice yacht. I also appreciated the Portuguese finger food (cheese, crackers and sausage). Relaxing activity. Family friendly. Crew was very friendly, funny and knowledgeable to Portugal history.

  • 5/5 Sean D. 1 year ago on Google
    Seeing Lisbon by Boat was incredible. I can't recommend this crew or boat enough.

  • 5/5 Amit R. 1 year ago on Google
    What a fantastic experience! Our group of 10 thoroughly enjoyed our sail boat trip. Booked via Ricardo who was very helpful. We had a large boat with plenty of space. Very friendly captain and assistant on the boat. A good range of drinks on board. I highly recommend Lisbon by Boat for your sailing trip.

  • 5/5 Sophie M. 1 year ago on Google
    If you’re thinking about booking, just do it!! I was travelling to Lisbon for a birthday weekend with a group of friends and we booked the sailing yacht experience for 3 hours. It was the highlight of our 3 days in Lisbon!! We felt so safe and taken care of the whole time. Ricardo, Sebastian and Carlos made the experience so memorable and I cannot wait to rebook the next time I’m back. One of the most unforgettable experiences I’ve ever had. Thank you so much Lisbon by Boat !!!

  • 5/5 Zach N. 1 year ago on Google
    Great experience for a great price. We really enjoyed seeing the beautiful city of Lisbon by boat. The crew was very knowledgeable and friendly and we enjoyed the snacks and beer / wine included. Highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Nick K. 1 year ago on Google
    The sunset cruise was such a fun experience and a great way to see the Belem Tower! Also a great way to experience green wine for the first time. Ask for the father and son team (I apologize I don't remember their names, but they were fantastic!)

  • 5/5 Freya 1 year ago on Google
    Great tour, nice boat and a friendly crew providing some cultural background about Lisbon. Highly recommended!

  • 5/5 D. B. 2 years ago on Google
    Beautiful boat, extremely friendly personnel. Would absolutely plan a boat trip with them again. We couldn’t make our reserved boat trip on time due to traffic, so the boat had to leave without us. Lisbon by boat invited us to join the next day instead. Strongly recommended!

  • 5/5 Louise L. 2 years ago on Google
    Our group of 6 had a wonderful sunset cruise with Chris and Paolo. We were lucky enough to see a stunning sunset over the Lisbon shore. Would recommend!

  • 5/5 Elianna V. 2 years ago on Google
    We had so much fun on our sunset tour!! Our guides were very cheerful and kind! It was so lovely! I would recommend to anyone!

  • 2/5 Daliya S. 2 years ago on Google
    The boat tour was nothing special. The staff were trying too hard to be funny, sometimes at the expense of the guests. Half of the view is of the shipping port (which is super ugly) and they waited until half way through the ride to provide us with half of glass of rose. It gets pretty cold after the sun sets. It was definitely waaaay too expensive for 40£.

  • 5/5 Kelly W. 2 years ago on Google
    The sunset boat tour was fabulous! The two crew members were extremely accommodating, personable, friendly and funny! We felt like family on the boat. The wine and cheese/crackers were delicious too. It was the perfect length of tour, too. I would highly recommend the sunset 2 hour boat tour for a relaxing evening in Lisbon!

  • 5/5 Andrea M. 1 year ago on Google • 1 review
    Great experience. The guide Cristina was excellent, very funny. We found great people on the boat, very friendly and pleasant to talk with. I recommend it. Just an advice: the wine has to be served in a wine glass, not in a normal plastic one, especially if it's served to an italian.
