This was really amazing - our guide always had something to share about the area and answered our questions. The boat was a great size for 5 people and we sat in the front to see everything, though it was a bit cold (we did get blankets to keep warm). The port wine was a nice touch, but the sunset was the real star. The boat headed towards the ocean for the sunset and then we got closer to the breakwater, enjoying the last rays of the sunset. Even with some clouds it was beautiful. Our guide and pilot were really nice, professional, and kind. The bathroom was even clean and really cute, though small. Definitely recommend this as an outing - wonderful to see Porto from the water, including so many of its bridges.

“A Beautiful and Relaxing Douro River Experience
We had a wonderful experience with this tour operator. Our 2:30 PM Douro River tour on 2/26 was the highlight of our time in Porto. Our guide was fantastic—she shared fascinating historical stories about the early settlers along the Douro and pointed out important landmarks on both sides of the river. We also appreciated her local food recommendations and the chance to enjoy a glass of Port wine while taking in the scenery. A big thank‑you as well to our skipper for navigating the river safely and smoothly during the nearly two‑hour ride. The whole experience was relaxing, informative, and beautifully paced. We enjoyed every minute of it and will definitely look for bbdouro again the next time we return to Porto.

1: We got upgraded to a bigger boat. There are 2 seating area with cup holding tables. Neat setting and clean floor. 2: Paolo and Christina were very friendly and kept offering us green wine, water and almonds. The organic green wine was very refreshing and we almost finished one whole bottle. The almonds were so tasty and crispy..... best almonds ever. 3: Paolo did some commentary on bridges and Porto city. And he gave recommendations on port wine and sea food also, which was much appreciated. He took pictures for us family with professional view. 4: the whole journey took 2 hours. We enjoyed the breeze and sunshine, with the music ( yes, you can play your own music by their JBL speaker!) I would like to recommend to take this cruise, enjoy more Porto from the river!

An Enchanting Evening
Susana and Sergio are wonderful, knowledgeable hosts! Susana answered our endless questions and prepared a delicious charcuterie board with wine and Port, plus non-alcoholic options like juice and water. The boat was cozy and comfortable. We took a 5:30 boat ride, watched the sunset, and then enjoyed the lights of Porto and Gaia at night. I took 1,000 pics - the views and different lighting from day to night was beautiful. Highly recommend! My husband especially enjoyed the boat ride because he knew I wasn’t going to make him trudge uphill for at least two hours. (Ha!) A wonderful, relaxing boat ride after a busy day of sightseeing. Orbrigado, Susana and Sergio!
