The Six Bridges Cruise is one of Porto's most popular activities, and doing it at sunset is a truly magical experience. You'll sail along the Douro River under the last rays of the sun, and you'll enjoy an apéritif on board.
Sunset Six Bridges Cruise
Have you got your camera ready? We guarantee you'll need it! We'll meet at the Ribeira pier, on the banks of the Douro River, to begin the Six Bridges cruise at sunset.
This boat trip is one of the must-do activities in Porto, and experiencing it as the last rays of sunlight paint the city's skyline orange makes it a truly magical moment. During the 90-minute journey, you'll enjoy the best panoramic views of Porto.
As you cruise the waters of the Douro River, you'll cross Porto's six most important viaducts: the Dom Luís I Bridge, the Arrábida Bridge, the Infante Dom Henrique Bridge, the Maria Pia Bridge, the São João Bridge, and the Freixo Bridge. You'll also admire the skyline of Vila Nova de Gaia and its iconic port wine cellars.
To make the experience even more special, a complete apéritif awaits you on board, featuring a selection of sweet and savory bites such as:
- Prawn or black pudding croquettes
- Cherry tomato and mozzarella skewer
- Omelette wrap with cream cheese, smoked salmon, and arugula
- Wild prawns in breadcrumbs with parsley, garlic, and chili sauce
- Iberian ham sandwich with cured cheese and heather honey
- Pastels Chaves (a type of pastry)
- Custard tart
- Cheesecake
- Chocolate brownie
All of this will be accompanied by drinks such as Port wine, white wine from the Douro Demarcated Region, juice, or water. The perfect way to relax in the late afternoon!
Finally, we'll return to the starting point and conclude the activity 1.5 hours later.
