Lovely cruise - Our family had a nice cruise up the river. Staff was very friendly and the portonics were a hit. It was nice sitting on the bow up the river and inside when it got windy going down stream.

Amazing sunset boat cruise experience! - This was an amazing experience! Great value. 2 hour boat tour down the Douro River, going under 3 of the bridges with great views of Porto and Gaia, then turning around and going towards the Atlantic Ocean at the PERFECT time to catch the sun set. The 2 person crew was fantastic, very friendly and knowledgeable about Porto (they were both from there for our trip). Highly recommend! We did this our last night in Porto and it was the perfect sendoff.

Wonderful Evening - My wife and I enjoyed this sunset cruise very much. The Portini they offered was very refreshing. Wonderful way to see the both sides of the river as the day ends. Very friendly hosts. They even arranged to bring my backpack back to me after I accidentally left it on the boat.

Amazing Porto sunset boat tour - Couldn’t recommend a better sunset boat tour in Porto. Such accommodating and welcoming hosts to show Porto through the Duoro River. It was the perfect sunset boat.

Highly recommended tour on the Duoro! - Our boat ride on the Duoro was great. The captain & crew were so accommodating. Due to my error (thought it was a 12 min. walk but that was actually by car), our hotel contacted them to verify meeting place, got us in a cab, & told them we were on the way if they could wait a few minutes. We got there 2 mins. late & there they were, waiting for us! The ride was pleasant, info was provided by both knowledgable captain & crew member along the way, & bonus...wines & a beautiful charcuterie board was provided, all delicious! (we'd either forgotten or didn't realize that was included!) Highly recommended tour!

Great day on the Douro! - We had a lovely cruise on the Douro River with Piedro and his wife, Sylvia. Beautiful, comfortable boat, great views of Porto, Gaia and the beautiful architecture of the bridges w so many personal touches including a nice glass if port. Piedro and his wife were so friendly and shared the history of the area and bridges. We highly recommend this cruise for anyone.
