Book this tour NOW! Don’t wait!! - Nov 2, 2024 - This tour is great 11 out of 10 stars! And even more awesome are Nadia and Paulo, our guide and captain. We booked an earlier day tour of the 6 bridges with a port taste and snacks. As it turns out, Nadia asked to move us to the 3:30pm slot due to mechanical issues with the boat. We assumed we’d be with a group as originally booked but Nadia gave us a private tour. The big pillows in the front allowed us to have front row seats to every bridge we passed. And when it got chilly, Nadia brought out warm blankets and put them around our shoulders- what a great tough! My son was over joyed… with the tour, the port wine tasting, the snacks… and it doesn’t stop there… Nadia spent time explaining the importance of the Douro River, history of Porto and Portuguese culture. She then brought us a beautiful charcuterie tray loaded with wonderful goodies, including homemade jam and a fruit kind of bar that her mother made from a local fruit. Delicious! And, she poured a couple glasses of wine for me and my son… who ended up liking the port wine and now white wine! Nadia also extended our 2hr afternoon cruise to a 2 1/2 hr sunset cruise. Paulo took us out to the ocean to watch the sun set… how beautiful! And very good driver he was! I feel SO very fortunate to have had this tour with Nadia and Paulo. She is a beautiful soul who wants everyone on her boat to have a good time. I can’t recommend it enough!

Sunset cruise + Great company :) - Paulo and Nadia were the sweetest hosts! I went solo for the cruise (completely hesitant because I wasn’t sure I’d enjoy it) but Nadia went out of her way to make me feel at home. She also took the time to explain the history of Porto while making sure everything was taken care of. They served amazing snacks, great wine and a cozy blanked that added to the experience. Thanks again! Nadia, I’ll be sure to visit you again, you’re lovely 🥰

Exceptional memorable boat trip for our 50th birthdays - As three lifelong friends we went for 4 nights to Porto to celebrate our 50th birthdays.. for our last night we booked this sunset cruise as a private party of 3. Well it was the absolute highlight of our trip. Something so special. The three of us sat up at the front of the boat and were so comfortable and spoilt rotten by our hosts Nadia and Paulo. So friendly welcoming and warm and they couldn't do enough for us and as it was a beautiful evening they took us right out to sea to watch the stunning sunset. We were given champagne by way of celebrating our 50ths and a lovely board of meats and cheese and Nadia's mother's delicious jam chutney. This business is one family run boat but the attention to detail and personally touches were well beyond any expectations we had. The trip lasted 2 hours through the bridges with amazing views of the cities. We felt like royalty tipping out champagne glasses at the passing larger boat tours. So recommended. The three of us will hold this memory dear forever

Feel like a millionaire - We had a fantastic personal boat trip with our hosts Nadia and Bruno. Highly recommend it. We felt like millionaires, we sat on the front of the boat, with a glass of wine and nibbles, as we cruised along the Duoro under the six bridges and beyond.

Highlight of our Porto trip! - This was the highlight of our trip to Porto! Nadia & Paulo where extremely friendly. We (group of three friends) felt like princesses on their lovely boat. We were so happy that we continued searching after finding all the possibilities on big boats with giant groups that rush you on this river. We felt like we could enjoy all the lovely bits of Porto because of these wonderful local hosts.
