Itinerary and highlights

The most sought-after panoramic viewpoint in the region is one of the highlights of this tour, with the Douro river always present on the horizon, and we easily let ourselves be buzzed with so many terraced vineyards.

One of the proposals of this itinerary is the proof of the best oils, because of the stony land of the Douro not only good wines come out. Olive oil has a unique flavor and several health benefits, which is why it is essential in the gastronomy of the region. But of course, the best and most delicate Douro wines will be part of your day, in a wonderful Gold wine tasting.

Let yourself be enchanted by the exquisite lunch we have to offer you, so that you can enjoy the typical flavors in the heart of the Douro.

Enjoy wonderful views aboard the traditional Rabelo boat in the heart of the Douro River. (Private Boat adds 250€)

And next to the Douro is the most beautiful railway station of the region, built in the 17th century. XIX, which displays, in 24 tile panels, the different stages of Port wine production.
