Guidekin's take

A small group cruise on boats low enough to pass under two of the city bridges and carry on to the river mouth where the Douro meets the sea, with Port wine poured on board and music.

Daytime and sunset are separate options; not suited to reduced mobility. 4.98 from 84 reviews at €59 per person.
