A Douro river ship with a choice of panoramic-window and balcony cabins.
Ship at a glance
Palace Tours lists MS Douro Cruiser with capacity for 130 passengers, a length of 78 metres and a 2024 refurbishment. The ship operates the Douro Express itinerary from Porto.
Cabin choices
The listed cabins are approximately 15 square metres. Main Deck categories have fixed panoramic windows; Upper Deck categories have step-out balconies. Category labels also distinguish aft positions, so use the deck plan when comparing rooms.
Life onboard
Listed facilities include a panoramic restaurant, lounge and bar, sun terrace, outdoor pool and elevator. If step-free access is essential, ask which decks and spaces the elevator serves and confirm the arrangements at the gangway and ashore.
Is it a good fit?
Consider this ship if you want to compare a window cabin with a private outdoor balcony on the same river itinerary. Think about how much time you expect to spend in the cabin versus shared viewing areas.
