The marina and the boat are simply amazing! The perfect spot to calm down but also to be close to everything Porto has to offer. The marina is located at Vila Nova de Gaia, the side of the Douro, where you can find all the famous and best port houses. It’s just a 20 minute walk from the boat to the city-center. A taxi is just 3-4€ from there to Porto centre, easy to reach. There is a big parking-lot in front of the marina where you can park for free, perfekt if you have a rent-a-car. Francisco is the perfect host, takes care of all your needs and has a lot of insider tipps from near by local restaurants up to festivals and things you are interested in. The marina is always guarded by security and the ponton is additionally locked . You can only enter by chip card, so we felt really safe! We had breakfast on the boat which is a quite nice experience, there is nearly everything you need: plates, cutlery, glasses and cups, a coffee machine, a microwave, so nothing to miss. We will definitely come back, we really enjoyed our stay aboard!
