I booked a private cruise for my wife and I during our honeymoon. This was definitely the highlight of our trip. Porto and the Douro river are beautiful, and our guide Raúl made it a great and fun experience. 10/10, don’t hesitate. Raúl also took great photographs of us during our cruise.

The best 6 Bridges
A splendid way of combining the 6 bridges cruise ( 7 bridges one day) with the sunset out in the Atlantic. There are loads of tours to choose from, but only one tour has Raul as skipper and guide. He is Porto through and through, and his knowledge of the river is second to none. Everyone on board had a memorable time, helped by liberal helpings of various bottles of port!. You've looked through the rest, now go with the best......Go Raul!!

We booked this boat tour...
We booked this boat tour to celebrate our 5-year anniversary, and it ended up being one of the highlights of our trip to Portugal.
Raul was absolutely amazing! He showed us so many hidden gems around the city and shared fascinating local stories that we would have never discovered on our own. He also recommended a restaurant for our anniversary dinner, and it was honestly a 100/100 recommendation—we couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate.
The wine tasting was fantastic as well. One of the highlights was getting to try white Port, which we hadn’t found anywhere else during our trip. It made the experience feel even more unique.
If you’re looking for something truly special and personal, Raul is the person to book with. It was worth every penny, and we’d do it again in a heartbeat!

Amazing experience!
We sail with Mar Douro for both our company tours and family & friends’ visits and it is always a wonderful experience! Raul is a great captain, informative and very professional, as is his crew. His boats are beautiful and perfect for experiencing the beauty of the Douro River. This is the perfect addition when spending time in Porto; relaxing, captivating and witnessing the beauty of Porto’s cityscape and bridges from the famous Douro River!

Magical Lady Moon Sunset Cruise
Raul and his first mate Alexander were superb! Made our sunset cruise down the Duoro River spectacular. Filled with history, laughter, excellent English and yummy snacks. We had an excellent time! He even brought treats for all of the kids. Without a doubt a must do in Porto and so much nicer than the big touristy boats. Raul’s teak boat is beautiful too.

Fantastic trio with Raul
Fantastic trip. Raul took myself and 11 friends on the sunset trip. Perfect evening, Raul was the most excellent host. Entertained us with local knowledge and interesting facts.
His boat was pristine and had blankets, snacks and wine for the trip.
We would all recommend this trip.

Wonderful private cruise aboard Lady Moon in Porto
We enjoyed a wonderful sunset private cruise on the Lady Moon. The boat was very comfortable and Raul and his team were so welcoming. Raul gave us lots of interesting information about Porto and we had some delicious wine and snacks. Blankets were provided and we were able to play music. Would highly recommend this trip.

Fabulous private cruise onboard a beautiful boat
My family of five enjoyed a fabulous leisurely 3 hour private Douro cruise, away from the hustle and bustle of the city streets onboard the Lady Moon. It was very straightforward to plan over WhatsApp and meet Raul at the marina. The Lady Moon is a beautiful boat. Raul was a fabulous captain and tour guide, friendly, interesting and engaging. Nothing was too much trouble and we enjoyed tasting a delicious wine and port. He was abley assisted by the equally charming Diogo as first mate. Would highly highly recommend!

Lovely sunset cruise
Wonderful tour with thoughtful and knowledgeable host Captain Raúl. Great views of the cities, bridges and sunset. Very comfortable with blankets when it got chilly.
