An Enchanting Evening

Lesley_D, Oct 2025

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!

We cannot thank you enough for your kind words! All the best for you! See you next time! Susana and Sérgio

Sunset boat tour - Porto

Sammy_R, Sep 2025

Highly recommend getting a tour from Susana and her husband! Susana gave us a clear explanation of the region and all the stuff to see along the riverbank. The view was amazing and even though there were clouds, they made sure the sunset was amazing. The little addons are definitely a plus.

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Thank you very much! Susana and Sérgio

Highlight of our time in...

Kelly_K, Sep 2025

Highlight of our time in Porto. Sergio and Susanna clearly share what they love and have created. The sunset and the city at night was spectacular! They kept the boat calm, had wonderful music playing, and even brought 2 n/a beers for my partner who doesn’t drink. The port and cheese plate was delicious. My partner and I had the most romantic time laying on the padded bow and seeing the sights!

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Thank you very much for your words. We were delighted to have you with us! Susana and Sérgio

Memorable Romantic Experience

Ryan_G, Aug 2025

Susana and Sergio were outstanding hosts. We were greeted at the entrance to the marina and led down to the boat. Susana took the time to tell us about the city of Porto and point out some interesting things as we cruised along. It was perfectly timed so that we reached the Atlantic just as the sun was setting. We were fed a nice tray of snacks as well as some wine and Porto. (Food allergies were taken into consideration). On the return, it was dark, so the lights of the city on both sides were beautiful. It was a very romantic experience. I booked this cruise for just my partner and I to propose to her in front of a beautiful sunset in a special moment. Susana was a big help for me. She arranged a bouquet of flowers, played the special song that I had and even snapped a few pictures for us to really capture the moment. I would recommend this experience to anyone!

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Oohhh! Thank you very much! It was a pleasure making part of this moment! We wish you all the happiness in the world!!!! Susana and Sérgio

We love Susana and Sergio!

Justin_W, Jul 2025

Susana and Sergio were lovely! Susana was knowledgeable about the various buildings we sailed by and was very patient with my thousand questions :) Sergio has custom-built several accessories on the boat to make the ride more comfortable - a drink holder, a charcuterie tray, etc. They even changed their usual charcuterie menu to account for my food allergies. We highly recommend them!

Thank you very much! We really appreciate your feedback. It was a pleasure to have you with us. Susana and Sérgio

Best experience in Porto

magnolianyc, Jun 2025

This was easily the highlight of our trip to Porto. The hosts were so attentive to our needs, providing drinks, snacks, blankets, everything to make sure we are comfortable. There are 6 seats total on the boat (3 in the front, 3 in the back), so while you can have up to 6 people, I would say it's ideal for 2 or 3 people, because the front view is the best (you can lay down, it was a new experience for me to ride a boat virtually on a bed). The ride itself was amazing, going under all the bridges, culminating in an amazing sunset view on the ocean, then going back into the nightlights of Porto, seeing everything from a different perspective. Highly recommend this activity, do not hesitate to book, it will create some amazing memories!

This tour was fantastic with the best hosts. Blankets and port were a lovely treat but the best was the timing to see the sunset. It was the highlight of our trip to Porto!

Perfect sunset cruise on the Douro River

Anne_B, Jun 2023

We had an excellent time on this private tour. It was beautiful to view Porto and Gaia from the river. We were on the river during the day and into the night for sunset, so we viewed two different perspectives of the cities. Our hosts provided a lovely charcuterie board and drinks. They were very friendly and comfortable. The tour was also available in English. My husband and I, and our young daughter had a great time and would recommend this tour.
