If in the area, choose Daurum - Fantastic experience. Small quiet boats add to the Duoro experience. Our hosts were super knowledgeable about wines and the area on general and gave us a lot of helpful tips on what to do in the area. Fantastic way to spend a couple of hours when in Duoro.

Mellow river ride - My husband and I had a lovely late afternoon sunset boat ride with Maria and Fabiana. Maria was tremendously knowledgeable about the area, from the surrounding vineyards to facts about the river. An hour was long enough for the actual boat traverse since he sun was down by the time we docked. We had a great time overall.

Best Hour In Pinhao - This was a fantastic experience. Even though the day was full of rain, the clear covers kept us dry and the views were wonderful. The two wines were quality wines.David and Jiao(?) were excellent Guides and answered all our questions. Because the boat is electric, conversing with the others on the trip was easy. This was a special way to spend an hour on the Duoro River.

Tranquility on the Douro! - A very pleasant experience, with a very engaging guide & two lovely local wines. The solar-powered boat was particularly interesting & of course quiet.

Rain didn’t stop us - Lovely couple gave us a gentle tour on the wayer . It was raining but,the plastic side covers kept us dry . We tasted two local wines , learned about the Duoro Valley history and enjoyed visiting the other people on the boat . So kind that he waited 5 minutes, as our train came late .

Beautiful trip - Weather cleared for a beautiful trip down the river. The advantage of the quiet solar boat was lost a little with the private conversations of the tour guide during the trip. Apart from this, they were knowledgeable and friendly and would still recommend.
