Lisbon River Cruise
At the scheduled time, our crew will be ready to greet you at the Estação Fluvial Sul e Sueste adjacent to the Praça do Comércio in Lisbon, where your adventure on the water will commence. Let’s begin our journey!
We will start our voyage on the Tagus River, where you can enjoy a unique perspective of Praça do Comércio, a hallmark of Lisbon. Keep your eyes peeled for the statue of José I of Portugal and the Arch of Rua Augusta as we continue our route towards the west.
As we glide under the 25th of April Bridge, marvel at the structure reminiscent of San Francisco’s renowned Golden Gate Bridge, with its striking red hues. Further along, the magnificent Christ the King sanctuary will come into view, drawing parallels to the famous Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro.
Our journey will then lead us to the Belém Tower, a 16th-century stronghold that functioned historically as a prison and lighthouse. Take the opportunity to capture stunning photographs of this UNESCO World Heritage Site and the nearby Monument to the Discoveries.
After approximately 1.5 hours on the river, our tour will conclude as we return to the original departure point.
