Don't miss this! - The performance was stupendous. Far, far above what we were expecting. Such a powerful and emotive voice from the singer and incredible ability from both guitarists. The venue was small and intimate. We cannot recommend this enough.

Ecceptual moment - How to say...magical!!!both on the welcome and on the musicians, the singer and the place on the river ...small intimate room with delicious port, bottle of water ...we had come with our children (which is rare for fado) and they were greeted with extreme charity knowing that I had a disabled little girl making little cries...they were smiling and in the end they even came to see my line...the singer let me dream and I had the Impression of being on the run in Venice...she spoke in French and apparently speaks different languages because she spent a moment with each nationality...hat down...the fado is a story sung and the..c was perfect...thanks for this moment

Short and sweet authentic experience. - The experience was great. It was short enough to be able to keep my 6 year old's attention, and even though we couldn't understand the language, the expressiveness of the singer's voice was just captivating. It would've been nice to have some explanations in between some of the songs to understand a little bit of the history involved but for the short time period, we enjoyed our time there.

Highly recommend - The band was friendly, kind to the audience, took time to explain Fado in three different languages, and had beautiful music. Great setting and enjoyed the Port wine. Intimate setting, maybe 40 people.

Unforgetable experience - It was a wonderful and spectacular concert, in a secluded and endearing atmosphere, with incredible musicians and a singer with a privileged voice. The beautiful songs, without a doubt an indelible memory in a city that will remain in our memory. It was a Fado recital that everyone should hear. Thank you very much for this beautiful concert.

Fabulous local experience - Highly recommend. Located in the boat club the view is beautiful while you wait for the start of the performance. With a glass of port included, and incredibly talented musicians, it felt like a very authentic experience. The repertoire had a real range and although I had no clue what the songs were about I’m guessing it was a roller coaster of emotions. Great value for money in a small setting.

Intimate and authentic fado - Very nice moment in a small room of the nautical circle facing the arrival of the river shuttle. The show lasts approximately 1 hour (at 5:30 p.m. or 7 p.m.) and is truly intimate and captivating. We let ourselves be lulled by the voice of the singer who makes us share and participate in a warm atmosphere. The musicians (traditional Portuguese instrument and guitar) are very professional. View of the Douro, the boats and as a bonus a small glass of Port to savor... Magnificent experience for a low price.
