Lisbon is built on the Tagus, and a cruise is the best way to see how the city climbs its hills from the water. Most sightseeing cruises run between the Baixa and Belém, passing Praça do Comércio, the 25 de Abril Bridge, the Padrão dos Descobrimentos and Belém Tower, and many sail at sunset.

Before you book

Check the departure point, as operators use different docks between Cais do Sodré and Doca de Santo Amaro. Small sailing boats are best in calm weather; larger boats run more reliably in winter.
