45-Minute Boat Ride

The tour begins at Estação Fluvial Sul e Sueste.

The journey will be accompanied by fado, the most traditional music of the country.

As the sunset takes over Lisbon, the sky's colors will create an unforgettable panorama of the 25th of April Bridge, the Belém Tower, and the Monument to the Discoveries. The tour wraps up at the starting point, 2 hours after the activity begins.
