Unforgettable memories - Douro river is an absolute must when visiting Porto. The boat trip with captain Jonas was breathtaking, with his friendly way and expertise, he is there from start to end. So I could experience the city with such a calm and extraordinary atmosphere from a completely different angle. Happy that I got to experience and enjoy Porto in this way with the best people.
