We had a wonderful sunset...

We had a wonderful sunset cruise on the Douro River, and Alberto made the experience truly memorable. He was warm, friendly, knowledgeable, and incredibly attentive throughout the tour. He shared interesting stories about Porto, Gaia, the bridges, and the Douro while still giving us plenty of time to simply relax and enjoy the beautiful sunset and scenery.

An Incredible Luxury Yacht Experience

Absolutely loved this experience! The yacht was beautiful and luxurious, and the service was incredibly professional, friendly, and welcoming. Alberto was fantastic and so knowledgeable about the city, its history, buildings, and landmarks. You could point out almost any building and he knew exactly when it was built and the story behind it, which made the experience even more interesting. The group was intimate, with only around 10 people, so it genuinely felt like a private yacht experience without the private-yacht price tag. Perfect for couples, solo travellers, or families. Just book it, relax and soak in the Porto sunset..

Amazing experience, new friends

Alberto and his team curated an exceptional experience. With detailed attention, we were well taken care of the whole day. Friendly, welcoming, and thoughtful cannot begin to describe how amazing this company is. Our experience included a well-planned day from the Atlantic down the Duoro with a curated breakfast, beautiful drinks, planned lunch, and sunset tour. Alberto and his team also went out of their way to give spectacular recommendations prior to our trip which helped us plan our time in Porto. At the end of the day, they made sure we arrived back to our hotel safe. The best time with new friends!

Relaxing way to watch the sunset

What a wonderful evening. Pedro greeted us on the dock and welcomed us on board. Pedro and another man (I can’t remember his name) led the cruise. They gave us a lovely welcome drink of a Port Tonic. Pedro provided us with some history and information about the areas that we were looking at. Most of the time we were talking with others on the boat. Nice mix of information and relaxing. We could purchase extra drinks if interested however we brought a bottle of port on the boat and were able to enjoy this instead. Towards the end of the cruise, they provided a nice Ginja and a chocolate treat. We watched the sun set and it was beautiful! Highly recommend this tour. Nice crew, very relaxing, enjoyable evening. You won’t be disappointed!

Alberto was fabulous!

We had a great time on our tour. Our guide Alberto is super informative with his knowledge of the history of Porto and the bridges. On board, he was very hospitable. We had champagne, a welcome drink, and some snacks. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone traveling to Porto. This was the only tour we did during our entire week and a half stay in Portugal and I am perfectly satisfied that this was the case.

Must Book Six Bridges with Opo Boat Tours

Our family of five, ranging in age from 10 to 74, had an absolutely fantastic afternoon on the Douro River with Opo Boat Tours and Captain Alberto. From the moment we stepped aboard, he made us feel welcome, comfortable, and completely at ease. Alberto was the perfect host and an outstanding guide. We learned so much about Porto, its history, and its six iconic bridges while taking in the stunning scenery along the river. The pace was relaxing, and it was a wonderful way to experience the city from a different perspective. He was especially accommodating to our kids, making sure everyone had a great time. And don't miss his delicious port tonic cocktail—it was the perfect complement to the cruise! A special thank you as well to Alfonso from Ono Tours, who was also wonderful. This was one of the highlights of our trip to Portugal. We have absolutely no regrets booking this tour and would do it again in a heartbeat. Highly recommended!

Absolute Porto highlight - Top pick!

This two hour boat tour was the highlight of my few days in Porto!! Highly recommend! Alberto and Manuel did a fabulous job at looking after us so well. Excellent information, delicious drinks and wonderful care and service to all aboard. I went solo as my hubby was unfortunately unwell this day, and it was a wonderful time meeting a small group of other travellers. So I would recommend for solo travellers for this reason too - don’t be shy. It was such a treat to be taken on such a beautiful boat, very comfortable and luxurious, felt like the VIP treatment. Thanks Alberto and team for a wonderful afternoon on the water.
