DOURO EXPERIENCE TOUR

The history of Port Wine


Our proposal with the Douro Experience Tour is that you can see the route taken by the Port wine barrels until they reach Vila Nova de Gaia. 

Come with us, on board our vehicle, to the village of Pinhão, where you can observe the magnificent landscapes of the area on board of a traditional Rabelo Boat. Disembark on the Tua and enjoy an à la carte lunch in a traditional restaurant overlooking the river.

 


fterwards, you will return to Pinhão, this time by train, to see the famous Douro railway line. 

Once in Pinhão, you will also visit a Wine Estate, followed by a wine tasting. 

The day will end with the return to the place of departure, where we will drop you off after this great experience.
