    Great experience and combo of boat perfect

    Melinda_B, Jul 2026
    A great combo of boat and train. The grip was great up the river with plenty of bubbles and gorgeous boat

    Lovely Trip

    The trip is in beautiful wine growing country first the boat trip with plenty of sparkling wine flowing. There was supposed to be a choice of either wine or port, my husband would have preferred the port as he doesn’t like sparkling wine, unfortunately I had to drink his! 🫢 The guide was very good and knowledgeable. Train journey back just as picturesque. Lovely trip would highly recommend.

    over head cover, on a very hot day nice, wine and water free of charge, toilet onboard. Staff friendly and happy to answer questions they even escort you on the train.

    Pinhao cruise and scenic train

    Louise_R, Oct 2025
    Once we got underway, it was ok. Sparkling wine on arrival and continued during the river cruise. This compensated for what we felt were misleading directions that led to late arrivals and late take off. A lovely boat but passengers were split between the fore and aft, so it was difficult for the crew to give us timely information.

    Thank you for the fantastic time

    5+ star experience. Parking is right at the pier, left on time, the boat was perfect, such a nice, small group of people, the 3 staff members were fantastic, communicated well with everyone, shared interesting information about the area, and the landscape absolutely beautiful. Loved everything about this trip. Around 1 hr. 20 min. on boat, train station in Pinhao was very nice to see, trip back on train was around half an hour.

    Beautiful walk on the Douro.

    Christian_C, Jun 2026
    Wonderful experience on the Douro followed by a pleasant train hike with constant support from our organizers throughout the experience.
