5* experience
Absolutely fantastic trip, staff were great totally dedicated to making our trip special, great knowledge of Porto. Well worth the money! Best thing we did in Porto - 5*
The only downside was the arrival- lots of people waiting for lots of trips from the marina could be better signage/ information about where to meet.

Fantastic - must to do in Porto!
The tour was fantastic, great views, great staff, good wine and snacks and exceptional atmosphere. For sure worth to give it a try in Porto! On the board there were only 10 guests plus 3 of boat staff. We were 4 (all adult) as a family but there were many friendly peaple with whom we had great talks. The tour was lasting 2h. The fee was automatically charged 2 days before the event.

Best luxury river cruise in Porto
Absolutely wonderful cruise along the Douro river. It was well worth the extra money to have a private boat and to cruise in style, and sample the local wine and snacks. We were a group of 7 and the 46ft yacht gave us plenty of space. Gonzalez the host was great, as was Sara on reception. A memorable excursion to have in Porto and one I’d highly recommend. A big thanks to the company as they allowed us to re-book our tour at no additional cost, when the weather was really bad on the day we initially booked. It’s this level of customer service that goes a long way.

Incredible yacht tour
I went with two friends for the 7 bridges plus wine tasting with snacks. It was amazing! The wine was lovely, snacks delicious, captain and tour guide so friendly and knowledgeable with fab local recommendations. Porto is beyond beautiful and the yacht tour is a great way to see it. So affordable and easy to access too. Just perfect!
