Did you know that Portugal's Douro Valley and its terraced vineyards are a UNESCO World Heritage Site? This area in the north of Portugal, near Porto, is one of the largest wine producers in Europe with more than 100 indigenous varieties. A boat trip on the Douro River is a nice way to get to know this special valley while admiring the terraced vineyards, the various wineries along the riverbanks and famous ports such as Tua.
The crew of Companhia Turística do Douro gives you the opportunity to live this magical experience with your family or friends on a private boat trip on the Douro River from the port of Pinhão. You can choose between a one-hour boat trip to Romaneira or a two-hour boat tour to the Tua bridge, during which you can taste Port wine. And you may ask, what is the difference between a rabelo and a boat? A rabelo is a typical Portuguese boat that used to transport wine barrels from the Douro Valley to the Port wine cellars. So if you really want to learn about the history of Portugal and the Douro Valley, this rabelo boat ride is your chance, because during the ride an audio guide will tell you about the history of this valley and the wine tradition.
