Authentic Douro Wine Tour Including Lunch and River Cruise

Porto

From the moment you meet your guide, the Douro River forms a backdrop to your day. After a photo stop at the historic city of Peso da Regua, continue to the first winery of the day, perhaps Quinta do Tedo. Learn how wines, including Port, are made and sample some signatures at a guided tasting. Stop at the riverside village of Pinhao, once an important center of wine transportation, and soak up the atmosphere on a river cruise. Savor an authentic Portuguese lunch at a local restaurant: Please advise any special dietary requirements in advance. After lunch, it’s time for a second winery, perhaps Quinta do Beijo, an intimate winery where the owner often leads both tours and tastings. Return to your Porto address in the early evening.
