What is included

Options and departures

The single option pairs wine tasting with snacks. It runs for 2 hours at 16:00 on selected dates, with departure times changing through the seasons.

Means: Take the 16:00 option if shared wine tasting suits you; choose another boat for a private group.

Meeting point and pickup

Marina address

Go to Gate D at Douro Marina on Rua da Praia 430 in Vila Nova de Gaia.

Arrival time

Arrive 15 minutes before your booked departure. The crew calls your name and opens the gate for you.

Your transport

You make your own way to the marina. Public transport is available nearby.

Who it is for

Book Touch Tours if Vinho Verde and port tasting matter and you're happy sharing with up to 12 passengers. Your sailing needs enough people to run. Privacy calls for a different boat.

For fewer fellow passengers, Opo Boat Tours has a boat capped at eight, from €69 per person. Choose LEÇAODOURO for privacy, from €290 per boat for up to 8; sunset needs a separate option.

Means: Take the single 16:00 sunset option if its selected dates suit you and you want the tasting included.

Not for

• Groups wanting the yacht to themselves
• Travellers needing a sailing every day
• Anyone relying on departure regardless of passenger numbers

In harvest: arrange dinner around the departure for your date, since Touch Tours changes its sailing times with the season.
