The catamaran slips away from the quay and the city exhales: terracotta roofs and Manueline stonelines recede as the Tagus opens up beneath a wide sky. On a two-hour VIP charter guests drift past the white crenellations of Belém Tower, the soaring arches of the 25 de Abril Bridge and the ornate façade of the Jerónimos Monastery, each monument stepping forward as the river carries you along.
