### What reviewers say

Reviewers praise the personal atmosphere and port tastings, but reaching the marina involves extra travel from central Porto.

**Praised:**

- A clean, comfortable boat with plenty of room to relax
- Small groups create a personal, uncrowded atmosphere
- Varied port tastings with background on the wines
- Views of Porto, the bridges and sunsets from the water

**Complaints:**
- The marina is away from central Porto, so reaching it requires extra travel
