About the experience

Set out from Douro Marina for a five-hour journey upriver aboard the elegant Sea Ray Sun Sport 220. This half-day tour invites you to slow down, enjoy the scenery, and experience the peaceful side of the Douro River.

The cruise takes you away from the busy city views into quieter stretches of water, where the surrounding landscapes become greener and more serene. You will have the opportunity to stop for a refreshing swim, relax on deck under the sun, and simply enjoy the gentle rhythm of the river. The setting is ideal for disconnecting from daily life and immersing yourself in nature.

Onboard, a traditional Portuguese snack board with ham and local delicacies awaits you, along with a wine tasting that includes white wine. The mix of tranquil cruising, swimming in calm waters, and tasting regional flavours makes this half-day experience a perfect balance of relaxation and indulgence on the Douro.

    Thank you Sergio and the team for sorting the boat for our holiday the whole family really enjoyed the trips on the river and the beaches along the bank We had great fun swimming and having a lazy lunch anchored up along the banks Thank you also for the very friendly greeting we received and your desire to make our trip as pleasurable as possible We shall hopefully return sometime soon to explore more of the beautiful city of Porto and rest assured a trip along the Douro will be on the list of must do items
