I absolutely enjoy the entire day. Ines P was a fantastic tour guide! Very much knowledgeble, passionated about all the history of the Douro Valley. I really get impressed by all the Douro Valley though. The driver Joao was very nice and professional too. No words to describe this trip. Highly recommend Living Tours! And Ines P!!!

We pre booked this two days before with a company just off the Cais da estiva in porto.
The boat itself is clean and well looked after, however we were the youngest on this boat 27/32years the average age range was around 50-80 years old. This set the tone for the day, although they were nice people it just wasn’t the right vibe for us.

We started off with breakfast on a tightly packed table with 3 elderly people which wasn’t too bad but was a squeeze when there were other empty tables. Breakfast was a bread roll and croissant and a cup of coffee with the option to also have some orange cordial.

The views on the boat are lovely and the dams are great experience.

For lunch the starter was a veg soup which was really nice, however both me and my friend were vegetarian and informed staff who didn’t really understand English and just nodded to which we were given a plate of pork that had veg and potatoes on soaking in the pork juices as well as a separate bowl of rice, this left us feeling hungry ,The dessert however was really nice sponge and ice cream.

The boat also only accepts cash, which we were not informed so we weren’t able to buy any drinks or snacks between 830am-4:30pm.

Excellent service, Bruno Osorio was a perfect guide, he was kind enough to give additional information of portuguese culture including musical recommendations for whom like me enjoy portuguese music.

It’s great. Our guide is very friendly (her name is Silvino Rita) and helpful. We drinks lots of wines and enjoys the beautiful scenery. It is a very great travel experience. Highly recommended.

Not worth it. Monotonous, there is no attraction, the boat is uncomfortable, they serve reasonable breakfast and lunch. However, the journey is long and the landscape is the same from beginning to end. The only attraction are the locks. I don't think it was worth it.
