Douro River Cruise

As far as Portuguese river cruises go, there are none better than a trip along the Douro. It is one of Europe’s most beautiful rivers and its UNESCO listed valley abounds with unspoilt scenic splendour. The Douro River meanders its way through northern Portugal and central Spain on a 556-mile journey, passing by rolling hillsides covered with pretty terraced vineyards and vibrant lemon groves.

Sail the Douro

Renowned for its rolling hills, rich history, and world-class wineries, the Douro Valley offers a truly enchanting cruise experience. Flowing 200 kilometres from Porto to the Spanish border, the Douro River reveals stunning scenery and unique charm. Since becoming fully navigable in the 1980s, it remains a lesser-known gem, with fewer visitors discovering its beauty from the water.

Cruise Porto

Porto, the starting point of our Douro cruises, is a city well worth exploring. With its palaces, cathedrals, lively cafés, and authentic charm, it’s a delight to stroll through its narrow, cobbled streets.

Cultural Destinations

As the Douro winds through Portugal, it reveals a rich cultural journey. Wander UNESCO-listed Porto, admire baroque beauty in charming Lamego, and cross into Spain to explore Salamanca, known for its golden sandstone architecture.
