Experience the Douro River in a new light: The River Sightseeing Sunset Cruise is here
DouroAzul is thrilled to introduce a brand-new way to enjoy the Douro River – the River Sightseeing Sunset Cruise, a magical journey at the most picturesque time of day.
As golden hour settles over Porto and Vila Nova de Gaia, the Sunset Cruise invites you to discover the city from the best vantage point: the water. This new experience departs from both Ribeira (Porto) and Cais de Gaia, offering maximum flexibility for visitors on either side of the river.
Aboard our traditional rabelos boats – iconic wooden vessels once used to transport Port wine barrels – you’ll cruise through history and beauty. While honoring heritage, each boat has been carefully adapted to provide comfort, style, and a relaxed atmosphere for today’s travelers.
Highlights of the Sunset Cruise:
- Unforgettable Sunset Views of Porto and Gaia
- Departures from both sides of the river (Ribeira and Gaia)
- Sail on a traditional Rabelo Boat — full of charm and history
- Live the Instagram Moment, with panoramic backdrops and golden light
Whether you’re visiting Porto for the first time or rediscovering your city, the River Sightseeing Sunset Cruise is the perfect way to end your day on the Douro.
Ready to board? Your golden hour awaits.
