What you can expect

  • A private experience designed for those seeking exclusivity, comfort and a more special way to discover the Douro.

    No groups. No rush.

    Just the Douro at your own pace.

    The experience begins with a private pick-up from your hotel, accommodation or other location of your choice in Porto, in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle with a dedicated driver.

    As we leave Porto, the landscape changes and gives way to the iconic scenery of the Douro Valley, with terraced vineyards, the river running alongside the route, and some of the most stunning wine landscapes in Portugal.

    The route includes stretches of the iconic N222, one of the most famous roads in the region, providing a privileged introduction to the Douro's landscape and territory.

    The day continues with a food and wine lunch at a leading restaurant in the region, carefully selected for the quality of its cuisine and its connection to Douro products and wines.

    Amid local flavours, contemporary techniques and selected wines, enjoy a meal designed to showcase Portuguese cuisine and the identity of the region.

    After lunch, embark on a cruise down the Douro River and take in the landscape from a completely different perspective.

    Sail among the vine-covered hillsides, take in the terraces that line the river, and take this moment to simply relax and enjoy the Douro at your own pace.

    The cruise is one of the highlights of the experience, giving you time to take in the scenery, take photos and enjoy the tranquility of the river, regardless of the season or the lighting conditions.

    The experience continues at one of the Douro's leading wine estates, where you will be welcomed for a tasting of selected wines.

    Learn more about the region's wine-growing identity, discover different wines and their profiles, and learn more about the traditions that make the Douro one of Portugal's most renowned wine regions.

    Between the scenery, the food, the river and the wine, every moment has been designed to provide a balanced, comfortable experience that is genuinely connected to the Douro.

    Throughout the day, your group will have personalised support, private transport and the freedom to enjoy each stage without the dynamics of a shared tour.

    At the end of the experience, we return to Porto with drop-off at your hotel, accommodation or other pre-arranged location.

    A more exclusive way to experience the Douro, combining gastronomy, wine, scenery and sailing in a day carefully designed to be enjoyed at a leisurely pace.

    No groups. No rigid schedules imposed by third parties.

    Just the Douro, at your own pace.
