“Nigel was incredible. He’s been giving tours for 12 years and is knowledgeable of the landmarks and history throughout Lisbon. His boat is beautiful and the group is small enough to give you an intimate feel - whether you choose privacy or to interact with others amongst the boat, both options are possible. He offers blankets and jackets in case the wind gets a bit chilly. We were provided a wide variety of beverages (alcoholic and non) as well as both a delicious sweet and savory treat. I highly recommend this to anyone coming to Lisbon!! Five ☆ experience, you won’t regret it.”

The boat is GORGEOUS - truly vintage. Seeing the sails go up once we left the dock was magical. It’s a beautifully comfy boat as well with lovely places to sit and admire the view.
