Overview

Our 250HP R.I.B. (rigid inflatable boat) speedboat fits up to 12 passengers and is designed for comfort, fun, and safety – featuring padded jockey seats, bluetooth sound system, and a bimini top for shade on sunny days.

Perfect for a relaxed historical tour along the banks of the Tagus, a scenic cruise to lunch in the stunning bays of Cascais or Seixal, or even a wild safari-style ride upriver into the heart of the Tagus.
Also ideal for stylish and comfortable transfers between cities: Lisbon, Almada, Oeiras, and Cascais.

Among the many experiences we offer, here are a few of our favorites:
• Historical Tour in Lisbon – by day or night (1h)
• Sunset Tour with a tasting of Portuguese fortified wine (1h)
• Cruise to Seixal Bay or Cascais Bay with lunch at a traditional restaurant (3h–4h)
• Dolphins Safari - discover Wild Dolphins off Lisbon’s Atlantic Coast

We depart from Lisbon, at Alcântara Dock - gate 1

Look forward to welcoming you aboard!

Q: Will I get seasick on Lisbon Landmarks by Speedboat: Private 1-Hour Tour on the Tagus?

City Boat Tours wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through City Boat Tours over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
