Three contemporary rabelo-style boats inspired by Douro tradition, with modern comfort and front-row views of Porto and Gaia from the river.
Cenários do Douro is one of the boats that brings the Bridges Cruise to life alongside Carlota and Catarina, ensuring the same quality experience across departures.

It offers 80 seats (40 open-air + 40 covered), 25.01 m length, 6 m beam, 10 knots and a Scania engine, traditional seating-style with wooden seats and an audio guide in 16 languages for a comfortable, story-rich cruise through Porto’s waterfront.
With the same Rabelo-inspired character and dedicated to the Bridges Cruise, Catarina do Douro is ideal for seeing Porto and Gaia from the best viewpoint, the Douro itself. Also introduced in 2013, it blends heritage styling with practical comfort: 127 seats (72 open-air + 55 covered with transparent acrylic protection), 25.01 m length, 6 m beam, 10 knots and a Scania engine.
