Built for the short hours you have ashore
Portlore is not a city guide with cruise features bolted on. Every detail is designed around the unique experience of arriving by ship.
Discover your voyage
Tell Portlore your ship name and departure date. We sync your time ashore and match you with fellow passengers on the same voyage.
Get your port plan
Our AI builds a personalised itinerary in seconds — based on your time ashore, interests, mobility, and group size. No excursion required.
Complete Shore Quests
Find the oldest building. Photograph the hidden courtyard. Eat where the locals eat. Each photo you upload earns a badge and enriches the port for every future visitor.
Build your Portlore
Every port you visit, quest you complete, and tip you share is logged in your digital passport. Your port knowledge compounds — and so does the community's.
