Lisbon: Tagus River Sunset Cruise with Drinks

3.Tagus River Sunset Cruise with Drinks

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 330 reviews · 2 hours · from $42Top rated

Sail the Tagus River for two hours aboard a 39-foot boat with skipper Miguel and his family team. You’ll pass Belém Tower, the 25 de Abril Bridge, Christ the King, Alfama, and more while hearing local stories. The small group, sunset timing, and two included drinks make this a relaxed alternative to a large river cruise.

“We had such a lovely time on this river cruise! Miguel and his son were great hosts, and had lots of information about the city. They provided a very comfortable experience and the views are unreal - you won't be able to get views like this anywhere else. This is way more intimate than one of the big tour cruises, I would highly recommend this to anyone visiting Lisbon.”

4.Private Tagus River Sunset Cruise on a Luxury Boat

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 61 reviews · 2 hours · from $294 per boat (seats 2)

Set out from Doca do Bom Sucesso in Belém for a two-hour private sunset cruise with a crew, welcome drink, snacks, and views of Lisbon’s riverfront landmarks. You can listen to your own music, request catering in advance, and ask for commentary in English, Spanish, French, or Portuguese.

“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!!!”
