HIPPOtrip: Lisbon Amphibious Sightseeing Tour at Doca de Santo Amaro

HIPPOtrip is a guided amphibious sightseeing tour of Lisbon that travels both on land and on the River Tagus aboard a converted amphibious vehicle. The tour departs from Doca de Santo Amaro, in the Alcântara district, and covers a route that takes in the city's principal squares, avenues, and riverside landmarks before the vehicle drives directly into the Tagus for a stretch of the journey on water. The format combines a road tour and a river cruise in a single continuous trip, with a commentary provided throughout.

On the land section, the route passes through areas including Belém, with its concentration of monuments from the Age of Discovery, and along the broad avenues of central Lisbon. The water section offers views of the city's waterfront and the 25 de Abril Bridge. The full circuit runs approximately 90 minutes. Tickets cover a reserved seat on the vehicle, the bilingual on-board commentary, and both the road and river portions of the route.
