Everything was perfect on board. from the boat itself, to the cruise, the free drinks served by a very friendly staff, the charming guide who explained so much about the city in a short time... and without forgetting the wonderful views on Lisbon. For us, it is an attraction not be missed. We have been living in Lisbon for more than 18 months now and this cruise brought us something that we didn't experience before. We will certainly be back when we will need to show the city to visiting friends or family in a short time. And we will try soon the sunset cruise... Five stars.
