Your Itinerary

Praca do Comercio (Terreiro do Paco)

(Pass by)

The Praça do Comércio is a large, harbor-facing plaza. Facing the Tagus (Tejo) to the South, the plaza is still commonly known in Portuguese as Terreiro do Paço. After the 1755 earthquake, the plaza was completely remodeled as part of the rebuilding of the Pombaline Downtown. From the 19th century onwards, Praça do Comércio became the seat of some of the most important Portuguese state departments.

Ponte 25 de Abril

(Pass by)

From its inauguration on 6 August 1966 up to 1974, the bridge was named Salazar Bridge. After the Carnation Revolution, which overthrew the remnants of Salazar's regime, the bridge was renamed for April 25, the date of the revolution. It is also commonly called the Tagus River Bridge. The 25 de Abril Bridge is based in part on two San Francisco Bay Area bridges. Its paint is the same International Orange color as the famous Golden Gate Bridge, and its design is similar to that of the San Francisco–Oakland Bay Bridge. Both the Bay Bridge and the 25 de Abril Bridge were built by the same company.

MAAT - Museum of Art, Architecture and Technology

(Pass by)

MAAT is a cultural project for the city of Lisbon that is focused on three areas - Art, Architecture, and Technology. The €20m museum sits on the River Tagus to the west of the city center, and is "one of Europe's most lyrical new museums". It establishes a connection between the new building and the Tejo Power Station. The museum is designed by Amanda Levete Architects.

Museu da Eletricidade

(Pass by)

Tejo Power Station is one of Portugal's most prominent examples of industrial architecture from the first half of the 20th century, and one of the most visited museums in the country.

Padrao dos Descobrimentos

(Pass by)

The monument was conceived in 1939 by Portuguese architect José Ângelo Cottinelli Telmo, and sculptor Leopoldo de Almeida, as a temporary beacon during the Portuguese World Exhibition opening in June 1940. The permanent Monument was built to celebrate the fifth centennial of the death of Infante Henry the Navigator, in 1960.

Mosteiro dos Jeronimos

(Pass by)

The monastery is one of the most prominent examples of the Portuguese Late Gothic Manueline style of architecture in Lisbon. It was classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, along with the nearby Tower of Belém, in 1983.

Torre de Belem

(Pass by)

Belém Tower, officially the Tower of Saint Vincent, is a 16th-century fortification located in Lisbon that served as a point of embarkation and disembarkation for Portuguese explorers and as a ceremonial gateway to Lisbon. It was classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1983.

Farol do Bugio

(Pass by)

The Bugio Lighthouse is situated on an island in the estuary of the River Tagus on the Fort of São Lourenço do Bugio.

Santuario Nacional de Cristo Rei

(Pass by)

The Sanctuary of Christ the King is a Catholic monument and shrine dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus Christ overlooking the city of Lisbon situated in Almada. The figure of Christ, comparable to the Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro, forms a cross, with its arms extended out facing the city of Lisbon as if to embrace the city.

Castelo, Alfama & Mouraria

(Pass by)

SĂŁo Jorge Castle is a historic castle that stands on a hill that has played an important part in the history of Lisbon. Since the 12th century, the castle has variously served as a royal palace, a military barracks, home of the Torre do Tombo National Archive, and now as a national monument and museum. Alfama, the oldest district of Lisbon, spreads down the southern slope from the Castle of SĂŁo Jorge to the River Tagus. Its name, derived from the Arabic Al-hamma, means fountains or baths. While the 1755 Lisbon earthquake caused considerable damage throughout the capital, Alfama survived with little damage. The Mouraria, or Moorish quarter, is one of the most traditional neighborhoods of Lisbon, although most of its old buildings were demolished by the Estado Novo between the 1930s and the 1970s. It takes its name from the fact that after the reconquest of Lisbon, the Muslims who remained were confined to this part of the city.

Very fun cruise with interesting sights and history of Lisbon. Loved the atmosphere and their red sweet wine which was included on this trip was delicious.

Alanna_P

The staff was very nice in helping us to fix a ticket issue, but the tour itself was just ok. It would've been great if there had been on board commentary, which there wasn't. There WAS an audio guide you could access via VR code, but no mention was made of it and we didn't see it until we were leaving the boat. We did find that we referenced what we saw on the ride throughout the trip.

Ethel_S

The boat cruise was so much fun & relaxing. The boat itself was big & the staff were very friendly. It was the biggest river I’ve even seen, so it felt like I was cruising in the sea not a river.

Paid 18€ to sit on a rusty old chair for a couple of hours on a tired tatty boat. Commentary was non existent so had no idea what we were looking at. Found a QR code on way off hidden on a table that supposedly linked to an online commentary. No one else on the trip had found it so we were all in the dark. Sat on starboard side so we’re basically the whole river distance away from shore so the sights of Lisbon were just a blur in the distance. Not recommended and a waste of two hours in Lisbon.

We were looking for a cheap activity to see Lisbon by boat. This one was perfect: a tour during more than 1 hour (city center, Alfama, 25 de Abril Bridge, and Belem), we found seats easily for all my family, and we enjoyed wine or juice included during the trip, but also additional drinks on the bar that is not very expensive. What's more, the departure and arrival place is well located, as it is the Fluvial Station in the center.

Beautiful day and a nice ride with a view of Lisbon from the water. They offer complimentary drinks and if the weather is nice you can sit up top. They also have two floors with couches and chairs.

Marie_H

Slow, older boat. Just go to Belém then come back other side of river. A few comfortable chairs, others not. No commentary. If you’re in the area and have a few hours to kill, probably worth the $20. Wouldn’t go out of your way

Stephen_A

Splendid building for ticket office. Large quay with cafe/bar. Friendly staff. Ample seating in three decks - inside and out. Good app with commentary.

Debra_O

Excellent value trip. Easy to book. On time. Sat on top deck on right side for best view. Used the audio guide app listed on drinks table. Great commentary at each location automatically. Requested free drink as recommended on booking information. Moscatel yum and an orange juice. Why not 5 star...chairs could have been more comfortable but would rate 4.5. Great outing.

Joanne_T

Nice to see the city from the water and lots of space onboard. Clean toilets and friendly staff. Relaxing music on a sunny afternoon made for an enjoyable break from a lot of walking. No commentary for tour but easy to identify main landmarks and good photo opportunity.
