What a fun way to discover Lisbon! 💦 Me and daughter had such a great time on HIPPOtrip. Tomas was fantastic – funny, engaging and full of energy, and Claudio made us feel completely safe behind the wheel (even when our bus decided it wanted to become a boat! 😂). A big thank you to both Tomas and Claudio for making the experience so memorable. Seeing Lisbon from both the streets and the water was definitely one of the highlights of our trip. Highly recommended! 💛🇵🇹

We stayed on the bus for our first ride to get an overview of Lisbon's sites. . We caught the bus again and hopped off at two locations we wanted to visit. A great way to do Lisbon's major sites. Worth it.

Except for downloading the tickets to the app, everything worked great. Good routes that you can easily switch between to see a lot. Friendly staff.

Very convenient and excellent drivers. Very patient with the varied clientele. Excellent experience. There were plenty of stops and great spacing between those spots.

We opted for a basic ticket which gave us time to do both the red and blue routes on the one day. We booked online in advance and the process of getting our bus tickets on the day was straight forward. The red route was the best for seeing the main sights and we got off at Belem to spend time on the waterfront. We did the blue route later in the day and stayed on the bus. The only issue we had was the audio sometimes cut out or repeated itself.

Very entertaining guy! He is very good at what he does. The "boat" part was great. The other part ok. Actually speaking in two languages obligates the guide to talk too quick (not his fault ofcourse as this is the "construction " of the trip). Overall, i think it is a bit expensive for what it offers.

One ticket, two adventures! Pair a 24-hour Hop-on Hop-off bus across three lines with a thrilling 90-minute amphibious tour by road and river!

One bus connects all the big sights across central Lisbon, Belém, and Parque das Nações, with buses running every 20 to 45 minutes.

Audio guides in 15 languages, kids' audio guides, walking tours, discounts, and a mobile app map to help you see more with less planning.

Hop aboard a unique amphibious vehicle that rolls through Lisbon's streets, then sails the Tagus River, giving you land and water views all in a 90-minute ride!

Feel the splash, while live English and Portuguese commentary brings downtown squares, Belém monuments, and iconic riverside landmarks to life!

Gives a great overview of Lisbon with plenty of stops. However, I picked the wrong date when buying a ticket online and it was impossible to change it less than 24 hours in advance. Very disappointing.

Combine flexible Hop-on Hop-off transport with a Hippotrip amphibious tour, so you move easily between Lisbon’s historic neighborhoods, riverfront sights, and modern districts without planning separate tickets or connections.
