Explore Portugal's most famous wine-growing region with this tour of the Douro Valley from Guimarães.
Douro Valley Tour
After picking you up from your hotel in Guimarães in the morning, we'll set off for the Douro region. After about an hour and a half's journey, we'll reach the Douro River, the largest riverbank on the Iberian Peninsula.
Our first stop will be a local vineyard, or as they call it in Portuguese, a quinta. There we'll enjoy a tasting of the region's world-famous Port wine, as well as learn more about how this wine is produced and the best ways to taste it.
We'll then continue on our tour of the Douro region, enjoying its spectacular landscapes of endless vineyards. The next part of the tour will be a boat trip along the Douro River to discover the region from a unique perspective.
For lunch, we'll head to to the village of Pinhao, where we'll go to a local restaurant to enjoy a delicious traditional meal on the banks of the Douro River.
Later, we'll go to a small village in the valley where we'll visit the second vineyard. Here we'll delve deep into viniculture and taste the flavours of the Douro Valley with a glass of Port wine. Cheers!
At the end of the tour, we'll take you back to your hotels in Guimarães, enjoying unparalleled views of the green vineyards merging with the glistening Douro River on the journey back.
