Unfortunately the weather didn’t cooperate with our much wanted sunset but the crew did everything possible to make sure we still had the best time. I would highly recommend this river cruise and the charcuterie. The drinks they served were great and the port wine to end it off was delightful. The crew was so amazing and nice it made our time much better and also gave us some great history about Porto. Would definitely do again when back in Porto!”
