I travel on the see excursions all the time. Always a great experience. I wasn't as pleased with this one as usual. We got upgraded to a larger boat right as we were taking off and that was nice. However I don't think the boat was ready for us. The captain and Ines were extremely nice and Ines was very knowledgeable. The snack was. A little cup of hard cookies. We were offered wine, sangria, beer or water. they came back twice and said they were out of what we ordered. The only option was white wine or beer. There was no water! Not a great service cruise. Usually when we go on these it's unlimited and they have an assortment. Disappointed in this one. The scenery was nice.
Santiago was very knowledgeable guide and seemed to care about his guests. Over 30 people showed up for the tour, so Santiago broke the group in half and got a 2nd guide. This is a very strenuous tour due to all the hills in Porto, so be aware.
This sunset yacht experience was the best experience we had in Portugal. Nancy was communicative and Hugo was very friendly. We are a family of 4-2 adults and 2 kids. Boys hung out with Hugo so well. He was sweet. Nancy made sure our experience was premium. They took us for the bridges tour and the.n we did the last 30 minutes watching the most beautiful sunset ever. I totally recommend this tour for everyone visiting Porto and that will make your trip to the next level.
Hi Ankit, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was such a pleasure having you and your family on board and sharing the evening with you all. We´re happy to know that the boys had fun with Hugo. Your enthusiasm really made the experience special for us too. We’d be delighted to welcome you back on the Douro anytime! 😊 Warm regards, Nancy & Hugo/YachtingStyle
A beautiful 4 hour tour of the city of Porto. Our driver Tiago was on time. He really knew the city well and the suggestions that he gave us on restaurants and just really having a lot of fun was very helpful. If you do this tour, he is your man. Thank you.
Fun and relaxing boat ride down the River. Hosts were attentive and informative. Yacht was clean and comfortable. And excellent choice of music!
Hi Elisa, Thank you so much for the lovely review — we’re so happy to hear you had a fun and relaxing ride with us! Great vibes, great music, and even better guests — sounds like a perfect combo to us. 😄 And we have to say… the three of you were such fun guests! We loved your energy — and those matching t-shirts? Totally adorable. You definitely brought your own style and sunshine on board! Hope we’ll see you again for another spin down the Douro — we’ll have the music ready! Warm Regards Nancy and Fernando/YachtingStyle
We had a truly wonderful time on this Douro River cruise. The atmosphere was calm and never felt crowded — even with around 10 of us onboard, the yacht had ample space to spread out across the front, top, and back decks. We were greeted with a welcome drink (sangria), which was delicious. I accidentally spilled mine while trying to change seats (a little embarrassing!), but the crew was incredibly kind and quickly replaced it without hesitation — a small gesture that made a big impact. It's thoughtful touches like this that elevate a good experience into a great one. The cruise took us all the way to the mouth of the Atlantic, where the Douro River meets the ocean. Turning back from there was a surreal moment — the view of Porto and Gaia unfolding together was simply breathtaking. It made me think of what it must have felt like for the first sea explorers returning home — truly a goosebumps moment. One tip: our tour started around 7 PM to catch the sunset, and by 8 PM it got quite chilly — especially out on the open water. The crew kindly provided blankets, but I’d highly recommend checking the weather and bringing a warm sweater or jacket, even in summer. I highly recommend doing this experience on your first day in Porto, as it offers the perfect welcome — both scenic and soulful.
Dear Arnab, Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and beautifully written review of your experience on our Premium Yacht Tour – 6 Bridges & Douro Estuary Reserve. We’re thrilled to hear that your time aboard the yacht was both relaxing and memorable. Creating a calm, uncrowded atmosphere where our guests can truly unwind and enjoy the beauty of the Douro is something we care deeply about, so it’s wonderful to know you felt that from the moment you stepped on board. We're also glad to hear you enjoyed the sangria (even if the first glass had a little mishap!). Your kind words about our response mean a lot to us. Your description of the moment where the river meets the Atlantic was just magical — and the way you captured that feeling of returning explorers gave us goosebumps too! That view of Porto and Gaia from the water at sunset really is something special, and we’re so happy it resonated with you on such a deep level. Thank you also for your practical tip about the evening chill. You're absolutely right — even in the summer months, it can get quite breezy on the water once the sun dips below the horizon. We’re glad the blankets helped, and we always appreciate guests sharing helpful advice with future travelers. Your suggestion to join this cruise on your first day in Porto is spot on — we couldn’t agree more. There’s no better way to ease into the rhythm of the city than by seeing it from the water. Once again, thank you for choosing to sail with us, and for recommending the experience so warmly. We hope the rest of your time in Porto was just as special — and we’d be honored to welcome you and your lovely wife back on board someday. Warm Regards, Nancy and Fernando/YachtingStyle 🙂

Hi Lorna! Thanks for your kind words about us! We remember your visit and we are looking forward to seeing you again! Warm Regards! 😊
We spent a beautiful afternoon on the river with Nancy and Fernando. They have a lovely boat, know the area well and obviously enjoy sharing the beauty of Porto with others. The bridges are all different and have a history and we loved learning more about each one.
Hi Kathy! Thank you very much for the positive feedback! We´re happy to hear that you enjoyed your experience with us! Warm Regards! 🙂
Lovely boat ride on a luxury boat. Small group so plenty of room and more personal tour guide. Complimentary drink included with the option to purchase extra drinks.
