Sailing Experience on the Douro River
Private 2 hour and 30 minute sailing experience on the Douro River, let the wind guide you on a journey of discovery!
This private experience aboard a sailing boat is the ideal option for those who want to experience the unique sensation of moving only with the power of the wind and feel the adrenaline of the boat gliding over the water.
After an initial explanation on how to maneuver the boat and the safety instructions to be observed, the navigation heads towards the city center, allowing guests to discover the highlights that both Porto and Vila Nova de Gaia have to offer.
Along the way, you will have the opportunity to see emblematic landmarks such as the Arrábida Bridge, the old Alfândega market, the Port wine cellars and the Luiz I Bridge.
