Great experience in this beautiful city - Fantastic getaway! Super provided by two enthusiastic guides (unfortunately I forgot their names). The sailboat has lovely seats from where you look out on Porto and Vila Nova de Gaia. We got a nice drink with some snacks. Along the way, the guides told us all about the city, port wine, Douro, the sea. We also received many tips for our further visit to Porto. 10/10 recommended.

Nice trip but don't expect proper wine testing - The title of this excursion is completely misleading. There is no proper wine tasting during that trip. We booked this boat tour specifically to enjoy the sunset and taste some local wines and paid higher price than similar tours. We only got one gin drink (which was good) and two small shots (about 30ml) of wine, very disappointing. Also, the boat is a sail boat so it can not go under low bridges of Porto. Otherwise the tour was very nice.
