What You’ll Experience

Praca do Comercio (Terreiro do Paco) (Pass By)

As the boat approaches central Lisbon, you’ll sail past the majestic Commerce Square, also known as Praça do Comércio — one of the largest and most iconic riverfront squares in Europe. From the river, the view is striking: A grand neoclassical square framed by yellow arcaded buildings that once housed royal ministries and trading offices. The impressive Rua Augusta Arch, rising behind the square and marking the gateway to downtown Lisbon. The elegant Cais das Colunas, where marble columns descend into the river — the former ceremonial landing site for kings and dignitaries. A powerful symbol of Portugal’s maritime legacy, where explorers once departed and returned from the Age of Discoveries. Seen from the water, Commerce Square reveals its full historical grandeur — a living reminder of Lisbon’s golden age and its deep connection to the sea.

Castelo De Sao Jorge (Pass By)

As the boat sails near the Alfama district, look up to the city’s highest hill to spot the impressive São Jorge Castle, overlooking Lisbon and the Tagus River. From the water, the castle offers a stunning sight: A medieval fortress with stone walls and towers, standing proudly above the city skyline. Originally built by the Moors in the 11th century, it was later taken by Christian forces and became the royal residence. Surrounded by cypress trees and red rooftops, it offers one of the most iconic silhouettes of Lisbon. The perfect symbol of Lisbon’s ancient roots, guarding the city for nearly a thousand years. Seeing São Jorge Castle from the river connects you with the city’s oldest history — a powerful and scenic highlight of the cruise.

Panteao Nacional (Pass By)

As the boat departs from Doca da Marinha, you’ll be greeted by the striking National Pantheon on the starboard side, nestled above the Alfama district. From the river, the monument stands out beautifully: A grand white-domed building, its dome soaring above the surrounding rooftops and framed by the fading light. Originally constructed as a church in the 17th century, it took nearly 300 years to complete, symbolizing Portugal’s resilience and history. Today, it serves as the final resting place of notable Portuguese figures, adding cultural gravitas to its elegant profile. The river view highlights both its Baroque and neoclassical architectural styles, glowing softly with pastel sunsets and offering a regal panorama. Viewed from the Tagus, the National Pantheon is an early and meaningful sight on the cruise — blending architectural beauty, history, and a serene riverfront presence.
