DOURO VALLEY TOUR

This is an exclusively private experience we only travel with your group, without (strangers) in our vehicle. 

The adventure begins in the Princess of Tâmega the beautiful city of Amarante where you can visit the church of S. Gonçalo and the surrounding area, then we continue towards the Douro Valley with a stop in Mesão Frio to visit the peculiar and beautiful tricycle museum, a fabulous private collection, then we continue to the city of Peso da Régua for lunch at a local restaurant and a tour around the city, in the afternoon we continue to the city of Pinhão in the center of the Douro Valley where we will visit its train station and then we will have a fabulous boat ride… and the cherry on top of the cake to finish, a visit to a fabulous local farm where we will have a wine tasting.

Return to Oporto by road where you can contemplate the Douro World Heritage landscape.

Other notes:
