You
are invited to join us on a unique holiday to the
stunning Douro Valley Port wine area of northern Portugal, the world’s
first demarcated wine region, and to the historic city of Porto (Oporto)
itself. Following the Douro upstream we discover a world of steeply
terraced vineyards producing fine wines and ports.
The
only way to see this beautiful region is by rail and river (there are
few roads in the valley itself). The main part of our tour is based on
the river right in the centre of this stunning region and includes
several scenic rail trips as well as a half-day river cruise. The
last two days of our holiday are based in the fine medieval riverside
city of Porto.
This is
designed as a "budget" version of our Vintage Port tour but still uses
4-star hotel accommodation.
