Entire experience was fantastic. The communication before the trip was critical for putting our weather fears at ease. The ride itself was gorgeous in our intimate boat and fantastic crew. Green wine and almonds were great and very appreciated. All around fantastic trip.

My Wife and I went to the Coventry branch for our 62nd Wedding anniversary . WE had a choice of table and the service was prompt, our waitress Sneha was very pleasant and obliging. We wanted the same dish but with a variation each, this was no problem. The Boeuf Bourguinon was perfect aand the meat melted in your mouth. The price of food and drinks was reasonable a pleasant change from the usual city centre prices. Not our first trip there and definitely not our last.

It was a very enjoyable couple of hours. Daniel and Antonio looked after us very well-supplying tasty food and delicious wine(best we’d had!) and it was lovely chatting with them both. Would definitely recommend the tour to anyone.

If you book this trip, You will not regret it! We weren't sure what to expect. However, Antonio & Daniel were superb. Great guys and totally professional. We stayed in the centre of Porto, to meet up with the boat, it's about 10 mins taxi drive to the marina to meet the guys. As per the picture, the boat is perfect for the trip. settle back on some bean bags or stand and just take in the gentle cruise down the Douro river. Plenty of opportunities to take loads of pictures. We neded up just short of the coast for the return trip. We went at 16:30hrs end of May. Weather perfect and lovely warm late afternoon. We were offered some lovely local Green Wine to sample too. Just perfect. Antonio and Daniel were perfect hosts. Go for it!

We had a wonderful trip with Pablo. He was very gracious and knowledgeable. To a restaurant and turned us onto a great restaurant where we ate a delicious Seabass that was freshly caught.

Great communication, comfort, location was between the bridges to Gaia and the Porto monuments making it pretty central. 2nd bath was awesome for a city apartment. Easy walk or drive everywhere. Pool and backyard of building very beautiful to relax under grape arbor! Obrigado

Four of us took a noon boat trip. It was a beautiful day-hot but there was some wind that kept us cool from the baking sun. António was very knowledgeable and answered all of our zillions of questions and even had some for us which made it even more fun. His assistant (I’m so sorry I forgot his name) was also lovely and an excellent driver especially when we got into traffic. The views of Porto, Gaia and the bridges were really great. Our only suggestion was to possible have a way for older boaters to have way to sit and get up more comfortably than the bean bags. My friends are spry but they were a bit tough for them. Otherwise we loved it!

This was a wonderful experience!! We learned so much about Porto. The crew couldn’t have been more friendly, kind, and informative. I highly recommend everyone take this opportunity to have an intimate experience without all the tourists attractions.
