About the experience

Experience Lisbon at its most enchanting on this nighttime river cruise, where the city's monuments and skyline come alive under a canopy of stars. As the sun dips below the horizon, step aboard and drift along the Tagus River for an illuminated journey through the heart of the Portuguese capital.

Your evening begins near Padrão dos Descobrimentos, dramatically lit against the night sky, followed by the fairytale-like Belém Tower, glowing softly on the water’s edge. Passing beneath the majestic 25th of April Bridge, you'll see the Cristo Rei statue radiating a quiet grace from across the river in Almada, a striking contrast to the industrial echoes of the nearby Portuguese Fishing Company.

As the city lights twinkle on, the boat glides past the sweeping arc of MAAT, the warm industrial glow of the Electricity Museum, and the serene grandeur of Jerónimos Monastery, each monument casting shimmering reflections on the water. Look inland and catch sight of the elegant Ajuda Palace, perched above the river like a royal sentinel.

The cruise culminates with a panoramic view of Terreiro do Paço, Lisbon’s grand riverfront square, beautifully lit and steeped in atmosphere—an unforgettable finale to a magical night on the water.

Perfect for romantic evenings, special occasions, or a relaxing escape from the city buzz, this tour offers a new perspective on Lisbon: elegant, peaceful, and timeless under the stars.
