Barco Evora is a historic ship built in 1931 with recycled tank plates from World War I. It was the first diesel ship in Portugal and served the Portuguese people for more than 50 years connecting the river between Lisbon and the south bank. Between 2014 and 2017 it has been totally refurbished to become the charm ship it is today.
