    Ricardo was delightful. We rented his boat for a bachelorette party, and he was phenomenal. I'd like to point out that due to a problem, we arrived 30 minutes late, but we still stayed on the boat for the full amount of time we had originally booked. I highly recommend him for this type of event, as they let us play music without any problems, and you can even bring drinks and food as long as you discuss it with them in advance. However, they always offer a free port wine ???. We'll definitely call him next time we're in Porto! Thank you so much, Ricardo.

    We had an amazing experience renting a boat in Porto! Both Ricardo and our other crew member were excellent. They were very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. We even proposed on the boat, and they helped make it a perfect and special moment for us. We would definitely come back without hesitation! Highly recommended!

    Traveling on Ricardo's boat was a great way to end our day in Porto. After lunch at Gaia, we arrived right on time, and we were able to change on the boat before heading up the Douro to a swimming area. Seeing how successful the experience was for the kids, we agreed to add an extra hour to the trip to explore the bridges from the boat, a detail we were especially grateful to Ricardo for. We were also especially grateful for his explanations. It was our first time on a boat trip of this kind, and it was very enjoyable.

    Amazing experience, loved the ride. The captains told good stories, made the experience great. Also one of the guys taught me how to do a backflip into the water from the side of the boat, now I will never forget them! The boat was nice and cozy. Sad that it couldn't go to the ocean, but the Douro river was absolutely great. They even did some waves with the boat speeding up for the paddle board, it was very fun. I strongly recommend this experience!

    The most amazing day ever! So welcoming and the boat was unreal. Ricardo was very helpful and also gave us loads of recommendations for our holiday in Porto. He made sure we had time to enjoy the views and swim in the water and also encouraged us all to have the most fun ever. The stand up paddle board was a great addition. Would highly recommend and if we have time on our holiday we will be returning!

    5 stars for the tour. It was a fantastic afternoon with Ricardo on the Douro river. We booked for 3 hours with stand-up paddling, bridge tour Porto. Ricardo was explaining a lot about Porto and the area around. We'll book Ricardo again for our next tour. What fantastic tour. Muito obrigado!

    An unforgettable experience in Porto We were lucky enough to rent a boat in Porto with the incredible Ricardo, and we couldn't be more grateful for the experience. We were a group of seven friends and spent two wonderful hours touring the six bridges of the Douro. From the very first moment, Ricardo and company made us feel at home: a warm, family-like, and very caring atmosphere. In addition to being a great host, he is an excellent conversationalist who shared anecdotes and valuable information about the tour with great knowledge and friendliness. The ride was peaceful and beautiful, with spectacular views of the city from the river. On board, we were offered port wine and a small snack, a detail that made the experience even more special. We definitely recommend this experience 100%. It's a different and unique way to enjoy Porto, perfect for sharing with friends or family. Thank you, Ricardo and company, for your professionalism and friendliness!

    An unforgettable experience on the water! If you're thinking about exploring Porto from a different perspective, look no further. Ricardo and his team offer more than just a boat ride — they create a truly memorable experience. From the moment we stepped aboard, we felt welcome and at ease. Their patience, friendliness, and deep knowledge of the city made the day special. Whether you're into sightseeing, relaxing, or learning about Porto's history, this is the perfect way to do it. We laughed, we learned, and we left with amazing memories. Don’t hesitate — book with Ricardo. You’ll be so glad you did.

    Our boat trip on the Douro river was nothing short of magical. The crew was outstanding: warm, knowledgeable, and always attentive. They shared interesting facts about the Douro Valley, and their passion for the region really made the trip special. The boat itself was comfortable and well maintained, with plenty of space to relax and take in the views. We had time to enjoy a glass of local wine, feel the breeze, and even a couple of stops for a swim in the river. Whether you're visiting Porto or exploring Northern Portugal, this boat trip is an absolute must. I would do it again in a heartbeat!

    Excellent, we had a great time. Ricardo was very knowledgable and spoke good English. They allowed us to bring our own wine and snacks, for a small cleaning fee, and they served us throughout the time. We were five people and we felt it was very good value for money and one of the highlights of our trip to Porto. Would highly recommend.

Pregnant at the front of the boat at the level of the mattresses, the price is very reasonable, really if I come back to Porto, I would do this activity again. I recommend ++++ Thank you Ricardo!

    We reached out to Ricardo for a spontaneous afternoon boat trip on the Douro River the same day. Within a few minutes, we had agreed on the terms and met just a few hours later in the marina. We were a party of 8 which was totally fine for this boat. The trip was great fun, and Ricardo and his crew were super helpful. We did a combined swimming, stand-up paddling and sightseeing tour. In our view, that was a way better value for money than one of the standard boat tours offered e.g. at the promenade. Ricardo has a lot of knowledge about Porto, the river, great places to eat etc. which we really benefited from. We really recommend considering doing a tour with him.

    The boat is as pictured and very clean. There is a speaker to connect your phone and you can bring your lunch and beverages for 30 euros extra. Ricardo is great, he knows the area and the history of Porto very well and doesn't hesitate to share it with you. We took the 3-hour option with a boat tour on the city side and bridges and a tour on the nature side. I'd recommend
