5.00We booked this online as a family private tour. Before we arrived I received a WhatsApp with thorough information on location and what to expect during the tour. They kept in touch before and then we arrived, he met us and immediately took us to the boat and gave us a detailed safety demonstration. We had an absolutely incredible and enjoyable time. The entire tour was fun and the stops were informative. It was extremely fun and we thoroughly enjoyed every minute. The tour guides on the boat were brilliant and made our trip and experience excellent.
Unique experience. Fantastic!

5.00City Lake was the perfect way to see Lisbon from a new perspective. The speed boat ride offered stunning views of the city’s landmarks—from Belém to the 25 de Abril Bridge—all while gliding across the Tagus River. The host was truly fantastic: cheerful, fun, and full of local insights that made the trip even more enjoyable. You could tell they love what they do, and that energy is contagious. The boat was very comfortable, well-maintained, and the whole experience felt safe and professional. It’s a great mix of adrenaline and sightseeing. Highly recommend!
