Overview

Discover the Douro River with a family-run and truly authentic experience. This is a family project, managed by two siblings who grew up along the riverbanks and now share their passion for the city of Porto with you.

It all began with the restoration of our first boat, the Sunseeker “Soul Silver”, carried out in our family’s backyard. What started as a dream turned into a business that now welcomes visitors from all over the world.

Today, in addition to the stylish Miami Vice-inspired Sunseeker, we also offer a 50-foot Cranchi with a flybridge — perfect for those seeking more space and comfort.

The tour covers 20 km, starting at Marina do Freixo, passing under the 6 bridges and the iconic Ribeiras of Porto, all the way to the river’s mouth and back.

During the tour, we serve local wine and a selection of cheeses and cured ham, as you enjoy the stunning views of this historic city.

Perfect for families, groups of friends, or a special moment for two. Come discover the Douro with us — you’ll be welcomed with heartfelt hospitality.
