Boat trip Rabelo just for you and your group, for as long as you want.
We sail on an itinerary of your choice, with the possibility of stopping to bathe in the river, if conditions permit.
Soak up the sun, picnic your lunch or ours if requested, have lunch, enjoy a drink, who knows a port wine….
We advise you to navigate upstream, on a fantastic and peaceful stretch of the Douro River, without national roads or traffic, and therefore not visible by car, with terraces down to the river, centuries-old buildings of wine estates, in a unique landscape considered World Heritage by UNESCO.
Itineraries with lock crossings must be booked at least 48 hours in advance.
On itineraries for an amount of one or two hours, we provide free audio information about what we saw on the tour in: Portuguese, French, English, Spanish and German, to listen comfortably, and in a safe way, on your own mobile phone. For your comfort we do not have general sound systems on the boats.
Our audio guide system is available for Android and IOS in Portuguese, French, English, Spanish and German. During the tour, the commentary will be issued at the respective location. This application, when running, does not consume data.
We have open and closed rabelo boats, so we can sail all year round, and in any weather condition.
