It was a wonderful tour with beautiful scenery; time flew by as we traveled along the Duero River, and ending the visit with a tour of the winery and a wine tasting was the icing on the cake. An excellent tour with a very informative guide; everyone was very friendly, and the wine was top-notch.

The cruise itself is a beautiful one on the Douro River. When you also factor in the cost and length of time at just under an hour, it is more than worthwhile and I advise anyone looking at doing something like this to book here.

We enjoyed the tour of the bridges; the scenery was beautiful, the timing was just right—both in terms of punctuality and duration—and the boat’s facilities were comfortable.

Relaxed river cruise. The app audio guide didn't work well at all so wouldn't advise using it. Please note: the starting point is the last meeting point on the booking, not the first one (River Sightseeing - pink landing dock on Cais da Ribiera) and not the port cellar. The port cellar option was worth it too - would suggest the update to the chocolate which can be done at the front desk.

For the boat Trip it would have been useful to get the Information about the Audio Guide App while buying Tickets online. So we had to load the app with mobile data. The wine cellar tour was very good. Perfect guide and nice international group

Everything as stipulated in the promotional advertising for the trip. Recorded descriptions given in Portuguese and English but I think it was also available by QR download. Note that boarding and disembarking arrangements not at all suitable for people with reduced mobility. Choice of sitting outside or in cabin area with refreshments facilities.
