What you pay for

Private classic boat for two with port and a regional board; full meals are outside the price.

Alma Douro takes two guests along Porto's six bridges on a private classic boat with a regional board and port. The trip lasts 2 hours and costs from €105 per person in a group of 2. Meet at Douro Marina's Pontoon C five minutes early. Daily departures depend on the date; the starting price buys the 11:00 morning option. Afternoon and sunset sailings use separate options.

The catch: The starting price buys the 11:00 morning option for 2; later sailings require a different option.
