What to expect

Set off on a relaxing two-hour cruise along the Douro River, offering panoramic views of Porto and Vila Nova de Gaia. Over the course of two hours, you will be away from the noise and bustle of the city, but still close to all the main attractions.

The cruise allows you to glide past the iconic monuments and landmarks of both cities, aboard a sailboat or catamaran. As you savour a glass of Port Wine, you'll pass by Porto's Ribeira (Luis I Bridge) and through the Foz do Douro on both outbound and return journeys.

Throughout the tour, you will have access to a digital guide providing information about the monuments and places of interest, their history, and intriguing facts. Should you have any queries, the crew is always ready to assist.

    Slecht aangegeven waar je je moet melden. Na 4x vragen kregen we te horen waar we moesten zijn. Verder heb je alles op de telefoon klaar staan, en dan is mijn naam genoeg. De boottocht maakte een hoop goed.

    Tocht duurde uiteindelijk maar 1u30 doordat we pas om 14u10 vertrokken door laatkomers. Ook reeds om 15u50 terug in haven. Geen probleem mee als in aankondiging de totale duur dan ook wordt aangepast. Maar tocht zeker de moeite waard, vriendelijke service en lekkere porto!
