Enjoy an exclusive and truly personal experience on the Douro River. Step aboard a six-metre vessel inspired by traditional local fishing boats, custom-built in 2018 to offer comfort, authenticity and unforgettable moments on the water.
This private tour, available by day or at night, is perfect for couples, families or small groups of up to six guests. Designed to be relaxed and intimate, it allows you to experience the river at your own pace, away from crowds and busy tourist routes.
You’ll be guided by an experienced local skipper who knows the Douro inside out and shares a genuine passion for its history and landscapes. The navigation is smooth and unhurried, with occasional pauses so you can fully take in the scenery, admire the unique perspective over Porto and Vila Nova de Gaia, and capture memorable photos along the way.
The route covers more than 20 kilometres, sailing between Marina do Freixo and the Atlantic Ocean -a journey that reveals the river’s changing character, from the heart of the city to the open sea.

- Feel the love of a local for the river on a relaxing cruise
- Learn more about the city Porto and the local culture
