Scopri Tour in barca a il meglio di
Lisbon con Withlocals

"We had an absolutely amazing boat ride with this experience, where you can see all the highlights of Lisbon from the water. Highly recommend it. Moreover, when we booked it there was some bad weather forecasted, where the crew was super responsive to reschedule to a sunny day. "

"This was, without a doubt, a fantastic sailing experience with an excellent sailor and wonderful host! As a sailor myself, I was very picky about the sailing experience I was after. Rui delivered exactly what we wanted and more. Rui was very patient with me as I chatted with him on the \"with locals\" website to question him about the sailing experience he would provide. One thing I noticed with other sailing companies in the area is that in all their photos, the sails were either not up at all or they only had the main sail up and were probably motoring. I wanted to make sure this was a sailing adventure, not a boating adventure and he assured me that we'd get what we were after. He was also very patient with me as our plans bounced around...both with the number of people we would have in our group, and the day we wanted to go. Thankfully when we finally settled on a plan, he was still available. We arrived at the marina where we met Rui. He gave us a tour of his boat and we set out. Once out of the marina, he handed the tiller to me, hoisted the sails, cut the engine. As we sailed he pointed out the various landmarks and attractions we could see, told us stories and generally chatted. He soon broke out a tasty snacks plate as well as some fantastic wine. After taking the tiller for a couple of hours I handed it over to my wife who is also an avid sailor. Rui let the two of us take the tiller the entire time we were out there. What a beautiful day! Perfect weather, a steady wind, wonderful food and wine, and great company. This was easily the highlight of our trip to Portugal. Sadly, the trip had to end at some point. We worked our way back to the marina, already looking forward to the next time we could sail with Rui. I don't know how often we'll get back to Lisbon, but I will always book a trip with Rui as part of our trip. Thank you, Rui, for a perfect day on the water! "

"On time a great small boat activity. Great guide. Highly recommend. "

"My friend and I booked a 2 hour trip on the Tagus River. Rui made it easy to find him in Belem at the dock. He is a perfect host as well as mariner, giving us his extensive history at sea, which made us both feel safe and at home. He catered the trip to do whatever we wanted to do as well as provided the most delicious cheeses, bread, wine, water for us. Conversation was interesting as he was able to tell us lots about Lisbon and the other side of the river that we hadn’t heard. He is a perfect gentleman and sailor and we recommend him highly. "

"Ww were welcome aboard by our hosts Alex and Slyvia, and expertly guided up and down the coast jy our captain. It was spectacular to be on the water enjoying the breeze, fresh air and enjoying lively conversation with our new friends Alex and Slyvia! This is a don't miss adventure! Plus we had an amazing sunset! Thank you Marlin Tours, Alex and Slyvia!"

"We had a lovely afternoon with Rui! My husband and I enjoyed catching the wind in the sails on his sail boat, just the three of us. The weather (the wind!) was perfect. He is a kind man who was nice to visit with; we enjoyed vino and snacks and wonderful scenery. Such a nice way to spend time in Lisbon."

"Enchantés de notre moment paisible et authentique avec Rui. Inoubliable !"

"We had fun sailing with Rui. He refreshed my husband's knowledge and love of sailing while serving us drinks and tapas."

"I had a great time with Rui while sailing. He was so nice and welcoming. I would highly recommend this excursion. "

"Rui is a really nice and friendly guide. My children (12/14) me and my husband had our first day on Rui’s sailing boot. It was a great view, and so calm. He had a great wine on board and tasty tapas. I can really recommend this trip and Rui 😉"
