Explore the heart of northern Portugal with this complete experience through the Douro Valley, one of the oldest and most renowned wine destinations in the world. This tour combines a road trip to Régua and a stunning river cruise back to Porto, ideal for those looking to unwind and take in the natural beauty of the Portuguese country.

The adventure starts early in Vila Nova de Gaia, from where you will depart by bus to Régua. Once there, you'll have some free time to explore before boarding the boat that will take you down the river. From the first views, the cruise will amaze you with the scenery: green mountains, terraced vineyards and absolute tranquillity.

The return to Oporto is estimated around 17:00 h at the Estiva Quay, after a day of unforgettable landscapes, flavours and sensations. This tour is perfect both for travellers who want to discover the Douro and for those who are looking for a day of disconnection in the heart of nature.
