The Douro Valley is by far one of the most beautiful wine regions in the world and a incredible destination for a romantic getaway. It’s not only where the two godly nectars of the North—Port and Douro wines—are produced, it’s the perfect embodiment of Portuguese ingenuity. The Douro is rightly considered a wonder of Nature, a testament to its contrasts and contours. On its journey, the rushing river has sculpted a meandering path of folded hills and valleys draped in terraced vineyards—a vertiginous vertical landscape of astounding beauty.
On this luxurious full day tour, you’ll not only savor traditional, homemade foods from this breathtaking region, but you’ll taste a wide range of Premium Douro wines from world-renowned producers.
Familiar and personalized, this tour is perfect for anyone who appreciates spectacular gastronomy is a picturesque region.
Highlights:
“It’s not easy to plan a wine trip, especially for a group that expects a high level of wine communication, education, and experience. Ryan Opaz and the team at Catavino exceeded all expectations in my first visit to the Douro. The knowledge base they represented, the contacts they have, and the professionalism they exhibited is of the highest caliber. Beyond that, and possibly most importantly, Ryan was simply a blast to travel with.”
On this one day tour, you’ll revel in the Douro Valley’s creased and folded mountain slopes, combed with verdant vines that craft juicy Douro table wines and legendary ports. After meeting your driver in your hotel lobby, you’ll be swept off to the heart of the Valley where you’ll visit a family-owned winery who’s redefined Douro wines internationally. Renowned for their warmth and charm, you’ll be given a exceptional private tasting of both their port and still wines. Lunch will be hosted inside a cozy little restaurant, tucked away inside the narrow streets of Ervedosa, whipping up mouthwatering regional dishes sourced not stone’s throw from their kitchen. But be careful, because these lovely women will remain true to their Portuguese roots by filling your plates well beyond your physical boundaries – but there are far worse things in life. After a one hour boat cruise coasting along the Douro River, revel in a premium wine tasting and vineyard tour perched just over River Tavora.
