This private yacht tour on the River Douro near Porto lasts about two hours and accommodates one to seven people. The trip departs from Marina do Freixo aboard a 27-foot yacht named "SMILE," operated by two experienced skippers. Guests receive a welcome drink of their choice, such as sparkling brut or Porto wine, upon boarding. The yacht sails a route of more than 20 kilometers toward the Atlantic Ocean, passing under several bridges including Ponte de Sao Joao, Infante D. Henrique Bridge, Dom Luis I Bridge, and Ponte da Arrabida. There is a brief stop near Dom Luis I Bridge for guests to take photos, followed by a pause at Cais da Ribeira to view the Porto stream and the historic cellars of Gaia. The cruise continues past the Felgueiras lighthouse and the Cabedelo Natural Reserve, with views of the Old Foz area and Barra do Douro. The tour can be scheduled during the day or at sunset, which is especially recommended. Included in the tour are private transportation, a tasting board featuring Portuguese regional products, bottled water, onboard WiFi, a sound column, alcoholic beverages, use of onboard restrooms, all necessary safety equipment, and all fees and taxes. The setting is private and quiet, avoiding crowds for a calm experience on the water.
