Adventure Tips
Arrive Early for Boarding
Plan to arrive at least 15 minutes before departure to ensure a smooth check-in and get a prime spot aboard the sailboat.
Dress for Evening Breeze
Bring a light jacket or windbreaker; temperatures can drop quickly once the sun sets on the Tagus River.
Camera Ready for Golden Hour
Charge your camera or phone and set it to capture low-light scenes to fully capture the vibrant colors of the sunset.
Motion Sensitivity Check
If prone to seasickness, consider medication ahead of time; the river is calm but motion may still affect sensitive travelers.
