What to expect from a boat tour in Lisbon
A boat tour in Lisbon is the simplest way to see the city the way it was meant to be seen: from the Tagus River. In 1h30 to 3 hours, depending on the day's route, you can spot Belém Tower, the Monument to the Discoveries, MAAT, the 25 de Abril Bridge, Cristo Rei and the riverfront all the way to Terreiro do Paço.
Sardinha do Tejo runs three regular Lisbon boat tours: a relaxed sunset cruise aboard a 60-guest catamaran, a livelier 2-hour sunset tour aboard Barco EVORA, a historic three-deck vessel for up to 220 guests, and a Saturday boat party with open bar and swimming stops. All tours depart from Alcântara, next to the 25 de Abril Bridge, from Doca de Santo Amaro or Cais Rocha Conde de Óbidos.
Every tour includes a welcome drink or open bar, a certified crew, bar service, toilets and life jackets. Tours run in most weather conditions; if we have to cancel for safety, you can reschedule or get a refund.

Frequently asked questions
Lisbon boat tours depart from different points depending on the chosen experience. The Catamaran tour and the Boat Party depart from Doca de Santo Amaro, gate 3, next to the Rui dos Pregos restaurant, while Barco EVORA departs from Cais Rocha Conde de Óbidos, next to the LACS building. The exact meeting point is always sent in the booking confirmation email to ensure passengers reach the boarding location easily.
Barco EVORA lasts 2 hours, the Catamaran lasts 1 hour and 30 minutes, and the Boat Party runs for 3 hours. Barco EVORA and the Catamaran operate every day at sunset, offering a unique experience to appreciate Lisbon illuminated by the golden late-afternoon light. The Boat Party takes place every Saturday morning and includes swimming stops in the Tagus, making it an excellent choice for those looking for fun, music, and refreshing moments on the river. All tours provide enough time to enjoy the view over Lisbon in a relaxed way and take unforgettable photos of the city's main monuments.
Lisbon boat tours run in most weather conditions. The vessels have covered areas and some also have heating for colder days, ensuring greater comfort for passengers. As the environment on the river tends to be cooler, we recommend bringing a warm layer even in summer. If safety conditions require the tour to be cancelled, the booking can be rescheduled for another date or refunded.
These experiences are suitable for children, families, and groups of friends. There is no minimum age to participate, as long as children are accompanied by responsible adults, and life jackets are available aboard for added safety. Seeing Lisbon from the Tagus River is an activity that tends to please all ages and offers a different and memorable perspective of the city.
All vessels have a bar aboard with a wide selection of drinks available throughout the tour, allowing guests to relax while enjoying the scenery. Meals are not served, as the focus of the experience is the sailing, the relaxed atmosphere, and the views over Lisbon.
The tours do not include a tour guide, but the crew is always available to chat and share curiosities, stories, and information about the Tagus River and Lisbon, making the experience more personal, authentic, and enriching for those who want to get to know the city better during the boat tour.
