Cruzeiro Pinhão - Romaneira - Pinhão

CRUISE PINHÃO – ROMANEIRA – PINHÃO WITH WINE TASTING AT A WINE ESTATE 

Boat trip up to Romaneira and down to Pinhão with tasting of 4 wines at Quinta das Carvalhas


Enjoy a 1-hour cruise in what is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful regions of the Douro. 

Embark at the Pinhão Quay, where you will have the opportunity to board one of the most recognizable vessels in Douro history: the Barco Rabelo! Get to know these boats that were once used to transport Port wine and learn a little about the history of Port wine. 

You can enjoy a short and pleasant trip, always accompanied by the region's characteristic terraces. An authentic "geological poem" as Miguel Torga once said.


Along the way, you'll also have the chance to see the region's renowned Wine Estates, where some of the best Douro wines come from!

Let yourself be carried away by the charms of the Douro as you travel along a route that is not visible from national roads.

After disembarking in the village of Pinhão, you'll have a wine tasting waiting for you at the well-known Quinta das Carvalhas (Real Companhia Velha), whose historical importance in Port wine production, transportation, export and even in defining the Douro Demarcated Region is enormous. 

Enjoy a memorable day with us!
