About this experience

The tour departs from Doca de Santo Amaro, in the Alcântara district, and follows a route that takes in the city's principal squares, avenues, and riverside landmarks before the vehicle enters the Tagus directly for a stretch of the journey on water. The format combines a road tour and a river cruise in a single continuous trip, with commentary provided by the guide throughout. On the land section, the route passes through areas including Belém, with its concentration of monuments from the Age of Discovery, and along the broad avenues of central Lisbon. The water section offers views of the city's waterfront and the 25 de Abril Bridge. The full circuit runs approximately 90 minutes. Each ticket covers a reserved seat on the tour, the bilingual on-board commentary provided by the guide, and both the road and river portions of the route.
