Pedro and Paulo were the best tour guide ever. We enjoyed the trip 😀 This is the first time we've been in that place and we have a good time.

The hole experience was amazing specially with the splash as we were interning the water so be prepared and the captain and Maria were amazing and full of fun and special Maria made it more fun and she had a lot of knowledge definitely if you're in Lisbon must do.

We had the best time on Hippo Trip in Lisbon! Our guides, Pedro and Nick, were fantastic – so funny and full of energy. They made the whole tour really entertaining while teaching us lots about Lisbon’s history and sights. The highlight was definitely when the bus drove straight into the river – my little girl (she’s 5) thought it was the coolest thing ever and hasn’t stopped talking about it since! It felt really safe and smooth, and the views from the water were beautiful. It was the perfect mix of sightseeing and fun, and a great way to see the city without feeling rushed. I’d definitely recommend it to other families visiting Lisbon – it’s such a memorable experience. HIPPO HIPPO HURRAY

First half round the streets of Lisbon, second half bobbing along the River Tagus. Our guide Fafa made this into a hilarious tour, he flips between Portuguese and English with great ease and speed. His comic timing, even in a second language, is razor sharp, and his winning smile and delivery had us all in gales of laughter. It's nice to see the city from the alternative viewpoint from the water.

What an amazing experience we had. Fafa our guide was so entertaining with his comedic commentary. He sang, he danced, he told jokes as well as providing some information about the city. The ride on the river was amazing, loved the dynamic entry into the water!!! Such a wonderful experience and great to see Lisbon from 2 different views. Would highly recommend it.

It is safe, fun and enlightening tour. My wife and I had an outstanding experience. The transition to the river was amazing, The crew was professional, informative and funny. A must do tour and you must visit any of the nearby restaurants after the tour.

Good visual tour of the city from land and water. Entering water was fun. The tour guide spoke a lot more Portuguese than English, and spoke very fast so maybe dividing the time and speaking slowly would be better.

The experience was amazing, especially thanks to our guide FAFA who created such a great atmosphere and made it a thousand times better. Bravo to him
