Mobile ticket
Discover the Douro River with a family-run and truly authentic experience. This is a family project, managed by two siblings who grew up along the riverbanks and now share their passion for the city of Porto with you.
It all began with the restoration of our first boat, the Sunseeker “Soul Silver”, carried out in our family’s backyard. What started as a dream turned into a business that now welcomes visitors from all over the world.
Today, in addition to the stylish Miami Vice-inspired Sunseeker, we also offer a 50-foot Cranchi with a flybridge — perfect for those seeking more space and comfort.
The tour covers 20 km, starting at Marina do Freixo, passing under the 6 bridges and the iconic Ribeiras of Porto, all the way to the river’s mouth and back.
During the tour, we serve local wine and a selection of cheeses and cured ham, as you enjoy the stunning views of this historic city.
Perfect for families, groups of friends, or a special moment for two. Come discover the Douro with us — you’ll be welcomed with heartfelt hospitality.

5.00We can’t say enough good things about our experience with ZapDuoro! They are a family run business and Carolina was the perfect guide/host! Our favorite part of our visit to Porto and would absolutely recommend!

5.00By pure chance our group of four people were the only ones on the yacht so we decided to cruise up river instead as we had seen down river and the bridges already and wanted some quiet time. Shoes off as you get on the yacht and a very nice port wine shortly after added to the relaxed feeling. Mariana was an excellent guide answering all our questions regarding Porto and Portugal. Carlos did a great job captaining the boat very smoothly. Both made us feel very welcome. The Marina the yachts launch from is a short taxi/uber ride from downtown Porto with a nice uncrowded open air cafe.

5.00We had a lovely couple of hours on the Douro with Antonio. Lovely Port and wine and a super charcuterie board. A gentle trip to the mouth of the river taking in all of the beauty of Porto from a River perspective. Perfect. Thoroughly recommended.
We all loved our yacht...

5.00We all loved our yacht cruise! The boat was beautiful and exceeded our expectations. The afternoon was a little drizzly but they had some type of rain guard that kept us dry and didn’t detract from our river views. We’d do this again for sure if we come back to Porto. Highly recommend!!
