Porto/Régua/Porto - Downstream

Not sure where to begin your visit to the beautiful city of Porto? Start with a memorable journey along the Douro River — one of the most scenic and culturally rich rivers in the Iberian Peninsula.

Embark on an unforgettable day trip between Porto and Régua, sailing down the majestic Douro River on a scenic cruise. Begin your day with a coach journey from the centre of Porto to the city of Régua, known as the capital of Vine and Wine. Meet your group at 08:00 at São Bento Station in Porto and board a comfortable coach heading to Régua. Upon arrival around 10:00, board the boat at the local quay and begin your cruise back to Porto, gliding through the unique landscapes of the Douro Valley. Onboard, enjoy a glass of Port wine and a delicious traditional lunch served as you sail along the river. Along the way, take in the impressive descent through the Carrapatelo Dam, with a 35-metre drop, and the Crestuma-Lever Dam, with a 14-metre drop. Arrival at Estiva Quay, in the heart of Porto’s Ribeira district, is scheduled for 17:00, concluding a memorable experience filled with flavours, history, and breathtaking scenery.
