Options and departures
The Sunset time option includes the guided cruise with port wine or soft drinks. Daily departure slots run from 15:00 to 19:30.
Means: Choose 15:00 if you want an earlier trip; later slots give you more time in Porto before boarding.
Meeting point and pickup
- Pier C
- Head to Pier C inside Douro Marina and wait for your host to meet you before boarding.
- Transport
- You arrange your own transport to the marina. Public transport is available nearby, and the cruise returns to the same meeting point.
- Prams and infants
- A pram can come aboard. Infants must sit on an adult’s lap during the trip.
Who it is for
Choose this if a local guide and a cushioned seat matter more to you than having the boat to yourself. Soft drinks suit children or anyone avoiding alcohol. The shared boat carries up to 13 passengers and needs at least 4 guests to run.
For a boat with up to 8 passengers, Opo’s shared yacht costs from €59 per adult. If boarding on Porto’s bank suits you, Douro In Board leaves Cais do Ouro from €35 per adult. You arrange transport for either cruise.
Means: Take 15:00 if you want to sail before your evening plans; later slots leave more afternoon time ashore.
Not for
- Travellers afraid of being on water
- Groups needing a private boat
