An unforgettable experience—the perfect blend of fun and culture! Taking the Lisbon tour aboard this amphibious bus was simply a fantastic experience! Going from driving on the road to plunging right into the Tagus River is a thrilling moment that alone is worth the entire ticket price. Special praise goes to the young woman who served as our guide and entertainer—she was extraordinary! She was incredibly friendly, captivating, and remarkably knowledgeable. Throughout the entire tour, she kept us engaged by sharing fascinating and never-boring trivia and anecdotes about Lisbon, all with a contagious smile and energy. If you visit Lisbon, you absolutely cannot miss this: it’s the most original, fun, and comprehensive way to discover the city. Highly recommended!

After purchasing the ticket online, you need to pick up the paper ticket by going to M. De Pombal Square. The square is large, but we immediately found the spot where the red buses are parked, and a friendly hostess printed our ticket with the QR code. In just one day, we first took the red route and then the blue one. We appreciated being able to get a bird’s-eye view of a city like Lisbon, which is large and spread out across the hills.

It was super entertaining, the comments from the guide were perfectly timed and light enough for the children not to get bored. The constant swapping from Portuguese to English gave you time to both listen and enjoy the views. If you don't know Lisbon it's a very good first approach, you can then explore the city afterwards and it will feel a bit more familiar. The views from the river are amazing. The guide and driver were super fun and friendly. Definitely recommend.

Great tour of the city, the tour guide Tomas was very funny and did a great job with both English and Portuguese versions of the tour. The rustic roads of Lisbon definitely make for a bumpy ride, so hang on tight!

I loved the journey by land and sea, but above all, the duo of Flávio and Fáfa... Their sense of humor and infectious joy were fantastic. Fáfa has an incredible gift for communication.

We loved this experience on the Cityrama Hop-On Hop-Off bus in Lisbon! The three routes (blue, red, and purple) let you explore the city from different angles and see many must-see sights. The only slight downside was the red route, which seemed to drive a bit faster than the others. As a result, we weren’t able to fully enjoy some of the scenery or take as many photos as we would have liked. Despite that, this activity remains a wonderful memory of our trip. It’s an excellent way to explore Lisbon, especially on a first visit. We highly recommend it!

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!

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!
