A private Douro cruise made for travelers who want more than a crowded sightseeing boat.
Step aboard Cabernet, our cozy restored classic boat, and enjoy Porto from the river with only your group on board. Cruise under the 6 bridges, see Ribeira and Gaia from the water, and relax with a welcome drink, local snacks and a Port wine toast.
Hosted by local owners, this experience is personal, calm and flexible : we share stories when you want them, but also give you space to simply enjoy the river, the light and the moment.
Comfort matters too : blankets, music, Wi-Fi and a restroom are available on board.
