About

Boost Portugal - Urban Thrills is a Lisbon-based activity operator that takes the city's tour concept and injects energy into it — segway rides, scooter experiences, and other urban adventure options that give older kids and teenagers a genuinely exciting way to see Portugal's capital.

For families with tweens and teenagers who've been politely tolerating walking tours through historic districts, Boost Portugal is the solution. Urban thrill activities cover more ground, involve real physical engagement, and have an element of novelty that makes reluctant teenage sightseers suddenly interested in what's around the next corner.

Lisbon's varied terrain — steep hills, wide riverfront boulevards, historic plazas — makes it an ideal city for segway and scooter experiences. Covering the city at a faster pace than walking means you can see more in the same time, which appeals to active kids and efficiency-minded parents alike.

With a 4.7-star rating, the operator consistently delivers on the promise of 'urban thrills.' Confirm specific activities, age and height requirements (segway operators typically have minimum requirements), and what's included in the price before booking. Budget USD 80–160 for a family of four depending on activity type and tour length.
