• The Douro Valley - In the breathtaking Douro Valley, several meaningful stops are made that extend beyond the usual tourist path.

Carefully chosen, family-owned wineries are visited — distinct from the large commercial brands. These are genuine, small-scale producers who welcome guests with warmth and pride. Here, visitors are not just another face — they are welcomed as guests and offered a truly personal experience.

Both wineries are cozy and full of character, and at one of them, guests will enjoy a homemade meal featuring traditional local dishes — the kind of food locals savor, paired with wines grown just outside the door.

In the delightful village of Pinhão, a traditional boat is boarded for a 1-hour cruise along the wildest stretch of the Douro River. From the water, guests will enjoy stunning views of the valley’s iconic terraced vineyards, carved into the hillsides over centuries.

This is not just a tour — it’s a journey into the heart of the Douro.
