Exclusive & Private Boat Tour: Lisbon Highlights from the River

About this experience

Join us for a two-hour private cruise along the Tagus and discover Lisbon from the perspective of those who truly feel at home on the water.

Allstar Boat Tours was created by a family with a deep connection to the river and to Lisbon itself. That local knowledge and genuine love for the city shape the experience from the moment you step on board.

As you cruise along Lisbon’s historic waterfront, you’ll see some of the city’s most iconic landmarks — from Commerce Square to Belém Tower and the Monument to the Discoveries — while hearing the stories behind Lisbon’s long relationship with the sea.

With space for only a small group, the experience feels calm, personal and unhurried. Enjoy a welcome drink, settle into the comfort of the boat and take in the city from a completely different perspective.

Thoughtfully hosted and carefully paced, this is a refined and authentic way to experience Lisbon — on the river, with people who genuinely know and love it.
