Perfect Family Boat Tour - This was the hghlight of our family trip to Porto! Perfect for families with kids and they even provided pirate hats and a toy pirate ship to play with during the ride. Food & drinks were excellent and the crew was very friendly. Thanks for everything!

Very enjoyable boat trip - We had a lovely boat trip along the Douro with Happy Douro. This was a special boat unlike the huge ones most visitors were on, and nicer than the more modern boats speeding along. We enjoyed the relaxed pace and the attention of our hosts, the traditional music playing and the drinks and snacks provided. Lots to see on both sides of the river and we actually got a better feel for the layout and scale of Porto, looking at it from the river. A really nice way to spend a couple of hours.

Fab hosts, great trip! - Porto stole our hearts, and this was a wonderful trip on the last night of our stay to see Porto and Gaia from the river. The hosts were fabulous, bringing a glass of port, snacks and blankets, and taking photos. We shared the trip with one other couple, but there was plenty of room on board for us to feel like we had our own space. Loved the music (although it got a bit cheesy towards the end for me). At the end of the cruise we sat and watched the sunset from the water. It was so beautiful!
