    Wonderful Cruise with excellent service

    The experience was absolutely perfect from start to finish. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the boat was spotless, beautifully maintained, and gorgeous. They also served delicious snacks and drinks while we enjoyed the breathtaking sunset. It was truly a wonderful experience, and I would highly recommend it!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for such a glowing review! We are thrilled to hear that your sunset cruise aboard our Maggiore yacht with On Tales in Lisbon was up to your expectations. Our team takes great pride in keeping our yacht spotless, beautifully maintained, warm and welcoming for every guest. We are delighted you enjoyed the Premium catering Portuguese snacks and drinks. Sunset is a wonderful time of the day, even more so from a comfortable yacht! Highlighting the best of yacht charters and boat tours in Lisbon and Madeira Island is what we love to do, and knowing you had such a wonderful experience means the world to our entire team. We hope to welcome you back on board one of On Tales' yachts, for another unforgettable luxury sailing experience soon!

    Amazing Sunset Cruise

    We had a wonderful time celebrating our honeymoon on the sunset cruise with OnTales! They were very proactive and communicative in their instructions for what to bring and how to find them. The team provided a high level of service for the experience: bringing sparkling wine and taking fabulous photos of our journey. The boat was luxurious and the ride was comfortable. Perfect for couples, families, or friends.

    Response from the operator: Dear Andrew, Thank you for so much kindness! It was a real pleasure to take care of your reservation and a privilege to have you onboard our yacht. Thank you for choosing to spend a little part of your Honeymoon with the On Tales team !

    A Lisbon Tale by On Tales: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lisbon.

    How much does A Lisbon Tale by On Tales cost?

    +

    Prices start at $571 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Lisbon usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does A Lisbon Tale by On Tales take?

    +

    Plan for about 2.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Lisbon is not rushed.

    Is A Lisbon Tale by On Tales worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 52 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Lisbon, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule A Lisbon Tale by On Tales?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is A Lisbon Tale by On Tales suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book A Lisbon Tale by On Tales?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Lisbon can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Lisbon and add a light layer if any part of the 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does A Lisbon Tale by On Tales start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Lisbon within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Lisbon?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Lisbon experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Lisbon City Center Tour - The Unmissable Lisbon, Sintra Private Trip from Lisbon Customizable Dreamlike Experience, Escape Hunt Experience. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Lisbon?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Lisbon?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in A Lisbon Tale by On Tales?

    +

    Included: Bathing towels; Souvenir pictures sent after the cruise; and Use of snorkeling equipment. Not included: Private transportation; Meals; and Mineral water, Soft drinks, Beer, Sparkling wine or white wine. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for A Lisbon Tale by On Tales?

    +

    We will reach out to you shortly after receiving your booking and will be assisting you all the way to meet our captain ! Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is A Lisbon Tale by On Tales offered in?

    +

    It is offered in Portuguese, English and French. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    +
