Rota Do Douro Information

These skills combined with the natural beauty of the Douro, as so well portrayed by Miguel Torga, made what was once just a dream come true. - This dream began in 1999 with the acquisition of the first vessel, the "Rota do Douro", a replica of a rabelo boat and capable of carrying 75 passengers, divided between the hall and the sun-deck. - In 2002, another replica arrived at our pier, the "Além Douro", capable of carrying 94 passengers, divided between the hall and the sun-deck. - In 2006, we built the "Vale do Douro", a boat of greater capacity, aimed at providing greater comfort when admiring the unforgettable landscapes that the Douro has to offer. - In 2010, the "Transdouro", capable of carrying 165 passengers, joined our fleet. - 2013 was quite a year! We acquired 3 vessels, the "Vistadouro", the "Princesa do Douro" and the "Milénio do Douro", boosting our fleet to 7 boats. - In June 2016, our fleet was reinforced with the arrival of the "Acqua Douro", which is capable of carrying 450 passengers. We have recently acquired the travel agency license so that we can do what our loyal customers have been asking us for - customised programmes for 2 or more days. It is wonderful to meet the customer's high demands, when we know that we always have the capacity to do more and better. Along this journey, and guided by growth, there has always been a strong commitment: on our boats the meals are prepared with the best that the region has to offer, with fresh and high-quality products. Rota do Douro takes pride in having a great team of professionals, therefore winning over all those who in one way or another come to us. Dynamism, professionalism, quality, and exigency are our values. Together we create experiences, knowledge, feelings, and flavours! CONTACT US
