About the Activity
One of the most special ways to experience the Douro is by ending the day aboard an elegant yacht on an intimate sunset cruise.

To the gentle sound of water against the bow, glide along the calm river as the vineyards and historic estates lining the landscape take on golden hues at dusk. On board, enjoy a bottle of wine or sparkling wine per couple, with light snacks, and a glass of Port, in a moment designed to savor the Douro at an unhurried pace.

The cruise takes place at the end of the day, with departure times adjusted according to the season, when the light enhances the beauty of the slopes and the wind softens, creating the perfect setting for a memorable experience.

An ideal proposal for couples seeking exclusivity, charm, and a truly special atmosphere in the Douro Valley.

Highlights:
  • Sunset boat ride on the Douro river;
  • Wine or sparkling wine tasting and apéritifs.

Boat Unbelievable
This is a magnificent and elegant ValkVlet 12.30, produced entirely in the Valk Yachts shipyard.
In 1964 Valk Yachts introduced the ValkVlet based on their own design and in collaboration with Th. Gillissen. Among skippers, this received a reputation as the "Rolls Royce" among Dutch cruising boats.
Building on this success, in the decades that followed, the company built several models, ranging in length from 8.50 to 14.30 metres.
Beautifully finished in mahogany and cherry wood inside, the Unbelievable has two double cabins, a galley with dining area and a large lounge, with a command point and a set of glass windows that allows 360º visibility.
The exterior, all in teak, has a large space at the bow and a high, protected area at the stern, which accommodates a second command post.
This boat is ideal for quiet and elegant trips, for groups of two to twelve people, for short stays or several days.
Cancellation policy
Free cancellation up to 7 days before the experience.
For cancellations between 6 and 3 days before the activity, 50% of the total value of the experience will be charged.
For cancellations made less than 3 days before the experience, the total amount will be charged.
Notes
The time of departure and the time of return are determined by the time of sunset. Mention at the checkout the preferential start time.
