This was a fun boat ride with beautiful sunset views and friendly staff. Our only issue was the cold pizza and the fact that it went too long after sunset. The temperature dropped significantly after sunset and there's not much to see at night. They should start the tour 30 mins earlier and end 30 mins earlier. They should also disclose how cold it's going to be and to bring a jacket after you purchase your ticket. Also, inform the guests to use the bathroom BEFORE you walk down the ramp to the boat slip.

Wonderful time. They went above and beyond to help us after the tour with finding our Uber, and made sure we were comfortable on the boat. Friendly and knowledgeable. Would absolutely recommend.
The scenery was beautiful and the DJ lively, but the promised “buffet of Portuguese food” consisted of a few breadsticks and slices of cold pizza. The boat was very crowded (about thirty people) with almost no outdoor space. I felt very hemmed in — next time will definitely choose a yacht or sail boat.
Absolutely wonderful experience! Highlight of our trip! The crew was kind, informative, and accommodating.
The tour is informative and a unique way to see Lisbon and the bridge that is the sister bridge of Golden Gate. They provided pizza and alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks and a dessert. I thought $51/person was fair.
Make sure the owners are ‘in town’ and not doing their own traveling before booking! Confusion about what trip we were actually on after suggested changes in departure times from the owners. The Captain seemed unaware of this communication with us, so after a rather rushed, ate and annoying start to the trip, it took quite a while to actually enjoy the experience I booked for my wife’s 64th birthday. Fortunately the ‘stand in’ crew chilled out and we had a ‘pleasant’ trip.
Small boat our captain was very engaging and pointed out the sites along the river- was one the best experiences in Lisbon
I absolutely loved the tour cause I got to see all the touristic monuments in just this tour. Everything was very well organized
Our tour guides were amazing. They were so professional. And had a lot of knowledge. They made my family feel welcomed and safe. I would do this tour again.
Im not sure if it the norm but we didn't get pizza as advertised. It was essentially crisp bread.. They guys were really nice and we felt totally relaxed. Drinks were good and we all had fun without it feeling too cramped x
Fabulous intimate and comfortable boat ride seeing some major sites while enjoying wine, sangria, beer, soft drinks, and/or water along with pizza and bread sticks. Great service and experience. Highly recommend.
False advertising there was no pizza. They don't serve pizza till after 5 tours. We had a 11am and only got bread sticks and almond tarts. Also we speak English and they talked and explained things in Portuguese the whole trip. Not worth money take a boat ferry see the same thing
The perfect way to see Lisbon. Two hours was exactly the right amount of time, and getting to see the city from the water was such a great change of pace. Our guide was wonderful, full of fun facts that made the whole thing more interesting. The open bar and snacks were a lovely touch too. My husband and I had a fantastic time and would absolutely recommend this to anyone visiting Lisbon. Don't forget to wear sunscreen!
Excellent boat tour! Great hosts, pizza and beverages. We really enjoyed the experience. Highly recommend this excursion.
There really isn’t much of interest to see from the Lisbon port area. It’s very industrial. Mostly a shipping yard. Almost impossible to take photos without ces ces and containers and a very industrial backdrop. While our skipper and guide were lovely people and the food/snacks and drinks were generous, it’s just not scenic. We took this to escape the heat of the day and it did cool us down but it wasn’t worth the money, in our opinion.
We had a beautiful and relaxing evening on the tour tonight. The owner of the boat and guy were both very lovely, interactive and took wonderful care of us with endless drinks and delicious snacks. The guide gave us tons of information and recommended places to go, things to do and restaurants to check out. The sunset was amazing and would highly recommend this company to anyone. Don’t hesitate, book it, you won’t regret it.
The operators were super friendly and informative. They made sure we were safe and comfortable, and gave us plenty of opportunities to take pictures
Booked this cruise with a couple pals. The company had excellent communication skills. Once we arrived at the dock, we were treated by our crew of 2 gentlemen. Snacks, wine, sangria, and beer were readily available and our glasses were NEVER empty. We cruised past some important Lisbon landmarks and had every question we had answered. Despite the fact that we were a small group, we never felt like the crew was "phoning it in" or "cutting corners". This was definitely a major highlight of our long weekend in Lisbon! Highly recommended!!!
The best time ever !!!! Everything was wayyy more than I expected… great snacks wines soda etc… will be recommending my friends and family… Tiago you’re amazing and your knowledge of Lisbons history is amazing Thank you sooo much for a wonderful experience. Will be coming back soon!
The 2 boys were amazing! Very friendly and wanted to look after us. We were lucky to have the tour to ourselves and that alone made our cruise more intimate. Would recommend Ondas and his team without hesitation.
It’s a scam I booked the trip at 7 pm 7th of jan 2026 , came to the Meeting point and no one showed up,the port is closed and no boats were there for the trip
We had a horrible experience. We originally booked a cruise in the morning. Then operator told us due to some tech issue. They need to reschedule us to the sunset cruise. I read other reviews about the sunset cruise where people said that the captain of the cruise was knowledgeable and informative of all the significant attractions along the river. And they enjoyed the light music with snacks. So I agree to switch. But our cruise boat happened to be a party boat. Super loud music. No information about anything. We didn’t enjoyed at all. My son actually has auditory processing issues and couldn’t handle the loud music. He had to stocked his head outside the boat the whole time. I asked the DJ if he could turn down the music, and of course he didn’t. We were tortured for the two long hours and now my son is having a headache right now. We totally wasted our time and thought we were be getting more historical information about Lisbon. Horrible.
This was perfect. We came in end of Dec and wanted a 2 hr max boat experience that hits a few highlights, isn’t flooded w people, has some basic drinks/light snacks, and personable crew. ALL THE ABOVE HAPPENED! Our guide (Inish?) and skipper (Tomash?) were the perfect contracted duo. Good English speaking, knowledgeable folk who were relatable and real. Yes they had local and cultural knowledge to impart, but better were the suggestions and stories they provided. We had a fun time trying to get a bottle opener from another vessel as well. Part the helped too was how small our group was (4 attendees). Even if more booked I’m sure it would have been social and easy to get into the real stuff (discussion wise) Food/drinks: 2 bottles of wine, some beer, and snacks including cod cakes, shrimp cakes, pizzas, etc were spread out in Instagram-worthy fashion upon our boarding. We felt so exclusive having this all to ourselves (while paying a very reasonable price which equated to no more tha €35 per person for 2 hours of cruise time). The folks before us piled onto a loud thumping boat for 20-30 people, and I was so glad to not be a part of that (esp w our 2 kids). Other notes. It got a little cold (being it was a sunset tour from 4-6pm at the end of December), but thankfully they had blankets. Bottom line: The perfect decision and blown away w how great a value it was and how much is actually see ourselves hanging out w our hostess and skipper. They were awesome! (Just wish I could have gotten their names right!)
Really enjoyed this tour. The views were amazing and our captain and guide were very informative, kind, and made sure we were comfortable the entire time. The wine/alcohol with pizza bites was a great touch.
Two families with a total of nine people went on this excursion. Boat was smaller than we all expected, however, very comfortable and quaint which allowed everyone to hear the great stories and conversations from all and guides. Not really an all you can drink experience as little 7 oz beers were served to five college age family members LOL.
The guides were so funny and knowledge, we got to see so many cool sights. Would 10/10 recommend to anyone traveling to the area! Must do
Such an amazing experience!!! Great service from amazing people, super knowledgeable and we learnt a lot whilst enjoying an amazing boat cruise with a lovely sunset. Thank you!
We loved this small group boat tour. Very comfortable seating with food and drinks provided. The captain was fun and informative, and we lucked up with a gorgeous sunset. Blankets were provided for those that were chilly. We would definitely recommend this excursion.
The sunset cruise was amazing. There were a total of 7 passengers and 2 crew members….. just right for what we wanted. The captain and his assistant were both nice and informative. The captain had a great laugh!!! The pizza, wine, and pastels were great. It was a little chilly, but blankets were provided. I would definitely recommend this trip.
Great experience, small and personal boat. Great value for money, the crew couldn’t do enough for you! We were on there for sunset which(despite not the best weather) was beautiful. There was light music but definitely not a party boat which was perfect for us. It was my partner and I with another group of five. Would definitely advice people who are travel sick to go for a bigger boat as it was quite rocky at time; not a problem for me but may be for others!
Great trip, Very attentive team on the boat. Allowed us on another boat as there was not one on the boat. Pastel De Natas were great and very deep.
This wasn't the cruise I signed up for but it was the cruise I went on. My ticket said Lisbon: Sunset Cruise, Pizza, Open Bar and Dolphins. When I got to the pickup spot, I was told to wait until two other large boats were filled. My group of three were ushered onto this small boat. I see my Viator trip listing now was changed to say Lisbon: Comfortable Cruise - Pastel de Nata... It's all so misleading. The cruise was nice but not what I expected. The first two boats were sooo overcrowded that we were happy enough with the small boat. Also, open bar is questionable since it's beer and wine. Maybe that's in the small print but we missed it.
Thiago was a great captain and very knowledgeable about Portugal and it's history. Also very personable in his conversation about current topics and making everyone feel very comfortable.
Awesome experience! Great tour and guide. It was really great to see the city from this perspective, enjoy drinks, have some food and learn about the city.
Great small boat experience. The 10 a.m. tour started w/esspresso and then wine. Only 6 people on board. Great skipper and gentle narration. Easily worth the extra money from the large boat tours.
Fun sunset cruise on the river.The captain took great care of making the ride as enjoyable as possible. They pointed out monuments and places of interest. Beautiful night. Bring a jacket as it get cool on the water as the sun goes down! Our Captain had blankets as well! Great drinks and snacks. Well worth it!
Such a fantastic experience! Glad i chose this intimate tour over all the other options i came across. Wonderful crew, endless flow of wine, great food and an overall exceptional time on board!
We really like the intimacy of this boat that had eight people on board as compared to much larger “party” boats with 50+ people on them. Boat is an open-air, low-to-the-water boat (as displayed in the pictures) that allowed full views of everything around you. Very nice description by the two crew members of history and the sites we were passing by was informative. Would highly recommend this tour if you’re looking for something without the hustle and bustle of a larger boat with lots of people
The drinks were limited and warm. Snacks consisted of goldfish crackers and did not state there was no bathroom on board. Our guide was great thou!
Friendly, fun crew Beautiful sights Laughter galore Wine flowing Great way to spend an afternoon with friends Great value
Really great trip, very knowledgeable guide and was beautiful to watch the sunset with friends. Plenty of drinks available and our favourite activity of the trip.
Our guides Augusto , Gonçalo were exceptionally great. The small group was wonderful and the sites enjoyable. Snacks could have been a little better but the beverages made up for it.
Great guides! Fun times on the boat and they drove it very well on a super windy day. Would definitely recommend.
Absolutely brilliant tour. Highlight of the trip . Guides were excellent . Wine flowed and the sights front the boat were exceptional. Highly recommend this trip . Comfy small boat
Augusto and Gonselo (forgive me if I butchered the spelling!) absolutely made our trip! From the moment my husband and I stepped onboard, it felt less like a tour and more like hanging out with friends who just happen to know all the best spots. Here’s why I booked this trip: ✔️ Didn’t want to be crammed onto a giant catamaran. ✔️ Wanted comfy seating, good vibes, and smaller groups. ✔️ Open bar… need I say more? This trip checked all the boxes! What I didn’t expect? To laugh as much as we did, to feel so at ease, and to actually walk away with new friends from the other trip takers (we even booked a food tour with 1 of the other couples for Tuesday). The whole experience was effortless, fun, and unforgettable. If you’re debating—stop. Book it. This isn’t just a sunset cruise, it’s the highlight of your trip.
Our two guides were awesome. Provided some great portuguese history as we observed the different sights along the coast of the river. Awesome bang for your buck experience.
I would rate this experience a 3.5, but half stars are not available. The boat was comfortable and well-equipped with snacks, drinks and blankets for when it got cooler after the sun went down. The music was mellow. The route was good, and we watched the sun set, which was beautiful, as well as seeing various landmarks before and after they were lit up. There were plenty of photo opportunities. Unfortunately, one of the crew complained about immigration several times, which was very awkward and a bit offensive, considering my own heritage. This really took away from what would have been a lovely experience. The other crew member was very pleasant.
We had the best captain ever, so friendly and full of happiness!! This was our last activity before departing Lisboa, and it was relaxing with the most spectacular views. We even saw a pod of dolphins!! The perfect end to our visit.
We are the only ones in the boat. That make the experience more interactive and the tour guide was knowable and fun! 💯 Recommended.
Tiago was a great skipper, polite, fun and very attentive. Would totally recommend this excursion!!!
