About this experience
Discover Porto from a unique perspective, aboard a quiet and authentic ride along the river Douro. We depart from Afurada, a fishing villa full of tradition, and sail along the iconic 6 bridges of Porto, continuing towards Freixo, always surrounded by some of the city's most iconic landscapes.
Being locals, we know the river like no one else and share with you stories, curiosities about each bridge and every bank, offering you a genuine and different experience from the usual tourist circuits. Our tours are conducted in small groups, ensuring a closer, more relaxed and personalized environment.
The boat was designed for your comfort, allowing you to enjoy each moment in peace. On board, you can also taste selected local wines, making this trip through the Douro even more special.
If you are looking for an exclusive tour away from the crowds, where the Port reveals itself authentically and unforgettably, this is the ideal tour for you.
