Throughout the tour our onboard team will tell you all about the history of each of the iconic bridges, which reflect the evolution of the city of Porto. Of course, the history of Port wine cannot be missed either!
Our boat tour with Port wine tasting is a typical experience to live in the city, combining the unique landscape with the tasting of the best traditional products.
This is a shared tour, which means that you will share this experience with different people.
Whether you want to surprise your special someone or simply enjoy a sunny autumn day, this tour is, without a doubt, the ideal option for an afternoon well spent!

I’m very disappointed on how misleading this boat tour was, based on the description on the website.
I had bought the ticket because I thought the team on onboard would talk about the history of the 6 bridges and a bit of about the history of the chocolate and port wine we were going to sample.
They did give us 3 glasses of port wine along with a packet of cheap department store chocolates that were opened and distributed in a cup to everyone.
After 30 minutes on the boat, we crossed a couple of bridges and were waiting on the crew to give us some basic history on the iconic bridges.
When I asked the guide if they were going to speak on the subject matter, he said he didn’t know much about the bridges and maybe I should ask the captain.
Anyways my husband and I enjoyed the view and sipped on the port wine realising this is what we were going to get (no guided tour as per website description)

Very friendly service from the crew aboard. It was great taking in the sunset and drinking wine along the way, weather was absolutely perfect. I think it's mandatory to do something on the water while in Porto

The Sailing 360 company did not have our reservation. The woman at the office Bo or something like that said we made the reservation late that day and they did not see it so they did not have a boat or crew.

Katarina and Eduardo were amazing! We got on the boat promptly and it was a very smooth ride up the river and back down. It was windy and chilly and so they had blankets for us. Delightful! The wines were delicious and the chocolate was fantastic as well. Eduardo was quite knowledgeable about the history of the town, and everything was just stellar. 10/10

Definitely one of our highlights of our trip to Portugal! We were fortunate to have Eduardo & George as our guides and they were both great! They were kind enough to hold departing for 15 minutes as we were caught in bad traffic on the way to the departure point (note, it took us almost an hour to get there from the center of the city, so plan accordingly!). The weather wasn’t the best, but there was plenty of room on the inside to support our family and one other so we could stay dry. And when there was a pause in the rain, we loved sitting at the second level to take in the sights. The 4 or 5 glasses of different Port wines were plenty and they even kindly provided our daughter with juice as well throughout our tour. I did think that the chocolates would be local or would come with some story like the wines but our daughter was happy nonetheless.
Highly recommend!!!

We had a great trip with Liliana and Pedro. They treated us to an extra special Christmas Eve sunset!

Great afternoon spent on the water. Lots of interesting facts shared and was able to answer all our questions. Our guides clearly love their country and sharing its history with visitors. Highly recommend!
