This is a nice tour, but a bit long. We arrived after the 8:39 am scheduled departure, due to traffic, and we were surprised the boat hadn't left yet. Phew! The breakfast was simple fare, but the lunch was wonderful. Staff seemed efficient and friendly. The scenery was fabulous despite the overcast skies. The loudspeakers need improving. Most of the time we couldn't hear what was being said. Also a lack of outdoor space could be enhanced. Not enough space for 300 passengers that's for sure. A little disappointed in the winery tour at the end, but to be fair, we didn't depart Porto until 9 am since there seemed to be late arrivals after us. That shortened the wine tour significantly. Bus ride back to Porto was pleasant. Be prepared to have a long day.
We would recommend this tour.
