We had an amazing time on this tour! Cruising on a traditional wooden boat while hearing stories of the area helped us to really understand the history and relationship that Lisbon has with the sea. Captain Francisco was so interesting and we so enjoyed the stories with his friendly and personal approach. The boat has a maximum of 10 participants so we never felt crowded. It was a relaxing and thoroughly enjoyable experience! Thank you!
We were the only people on the tour when we did it. It was a lovely day weather wise and we had a great time with Francisco. He is an extremely friendly, personable and interesting person. It was great to see the sights of Lisbon from the river in a traditional boat, it gives a completely different perspective to things. Francisco was kind enough to take some photos of us and send them to me via Whatsapp. I also really loved the quotation he has painted on his boat in Portuguese. "Whatever the future holds, there will always be moonlit nights, the Sintra mountains, and the Tagus River flowing to the sea!" by José Hermano Saraiva It was really easy to have a conversation with Francisco and he is a very genuine and caring person. I can thoroughly recommend this boat tour on the Tagus.
Was looking for an informative river tour and definitely found it. We had the best time! And learned a lot of about Lisbon. Francisco really seems to love what he does and it shows (Maria, too!) Definitely, one of the highlights of our time in Lisbon.
I did onpasseinde barcontradicionsl by.Rio Tejo. Rewarding experience though it was very cold. Attention total guide Elisa ,
Lovely relaxing evening on the water. It was a bit windy that day but if you have the time, it’s a great tour to see a different perspective of the monuments along the Tagus. Very friendly and informative guide and skipper was helpful. Highly recommended
Great intimate cruise we were just the three of us. It can hold 10 people. The team is super friendly very welcoming they explain everything. And show you a good view of the Tagus. I highly recommend this beautiful cruise. Thank you again for this beautiful time with my daughters.
Wonderful tour, spectacular afternoon, luxury crew. Lisbon view of the Tejo River with a pleasant conversation and full of historical curiosities. Francis is really a good host. I recommend the tours of the Legend of the Tagus.
Fantastic trip in Lenda do Tejo, with amazing crew Francisco and Vasco. Great view , great time 👌 and sharing of the city's history
Excellent family experience. I highly recommend. Francisco is an excellent skipper who adds value to the experience, giving us another perspective on the city of Lisbon.
Francisco Was an amazing guide and made us feel safe, comfortable and really spent the time to teach us all about Lisbon and its history! Informative and in an intimate setting, it was truly a highlight of our 3 week trip to Portugal. We plan to visit again and will certainly pay another visit to Francisco and team! Many thanks for the cool experience, our family won’t forget it!
