The experience
The Tagus at sunset from a sailboat, with Belém Tower and the 25 de Abril Bridge from the water.
A sailboat departs from Belém’s marina for a two-hour sunset cruise along the Tagus River, passing the Belém Tower, the neoclassical Ajuda National Palace and the 25 de Abril Bridge from a vantage point most visitors never see the city from.
Portuguese wine is served over the course of the sail, and the small-group format keeps the boat from feeling like a crowded party cruise — this is a quieter, more intimate way to close out a day in Belém than the larger sunset boat parties elsewhere on the river.
