Itinerary
We started and ended at Douro Marina, near Afurada. The reception is done at the ponton before boarding our classic boat for a private and quiet experience in the Douro.
We sail under the Ponte da Arrábida, one of the most striking bridges in Porto, with open views over the river, the city and the westernmost part of the Douro.
From the river, Ribeira reveals its colorful houses, historic facades and the unique movement of the city. It is one of the most beautiful and authentic views of Porto.
We passed by the Port Wine cellars in Villa Nova de Gaia, where the history of wine is part of the landscape and soul of the Douro.
We sail under the Don Luis I Bridge, the most famous bridge between Porto and Gaia, in one of the most memorable moments of the tour.
During the cruise, we traverse the 6 bridges between Porto and Gaia, at the calm pace of the Douro, with time to appreciate the light, the landscape and the intimacy of a private experience.

About Porto
Porto tumbles down steep hills to the Douro River, a granite city of tiled churches, riverside cellars and port wine aged across the water.
The Ribeira district lines the riverbank with colourful houses, cafés and boats, part of a UNESCO-listed old centre beneath the iron arches of the Dom Luís I Bridge. Above it, the São Bento station hall is covered in blue-and-white azulejo tiles, the Clérigos Tower rises above the rooftops, and the Sé cathedral stands on its hill.
Top-ranked sights in Porto: Clérigos Church and Tower (Torre & Igreja dos Clérigos), Dom Luis Bridge (Ponte de Dom Luis I), Porto Cathedral (Sé Catedral do Porto).
