Overview

Sail on a unique river in the heart of the oldest demarcated wine region in the world and also a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Depart from Pinhão, passing under the Eiffel iron bridge, and head towards the Roncão area, where you will turn around to return to Pinhão. Along the way, gaze down the hills of terraced vineyards to the river, without passing through national highways and without encountering any traffic in sight. Although you will follow the same route there and back, the impression will be that you have taken two different paths, since the views provided and the landmarks seen are completely different. Traditional rabelo boats have open and closed areas, so navigation will be completely comfortable in all types of weather, all year round. We ask that you download our audio guide before boarding and bring your own headphones for a smoother experience.

Meeting points

Magnificent Douro Pier, near the iron bridge, in front of the garden gate of the Vintage House Hotel. Enter the bridge.

End point

This activity ends back at the meeting point.

Itinerary

  • N/A (Pass By)

    Navigate a special river, in the heart of the first demarcated wine region in the world, and UNESCO heritage. We start in Pinhão, pass under the Eiffel iron bridge, sail up the river to the Roncão area, returning to Pinhão. You will see vineyards on terraces down to the river, in a landscape without national roads or road traffic. Although the stretch of river on the way back is the same, it could very well be different, since when seen in another direction it creates totally different views and landscapes. The traditional Rabelo boats have open and closed areas, allowing comfortable navigation at any time of the year and weather conditions. Use our free app (Magnifico Douro – Boat Trips) for geo-localized commentary on what you are currently seeing, wine estates, wine, the river, and much more. Don't forget to bring your headphones.

Delightful

Published on Oct, 2024

Fantastic guide who explained with passion and humour the life of the Douro valley wine farmers. Beautiful scenery

Perfect boat tour

Published on Sep, 2024

We enjoyed a peaceful boat ride as the sun was close to setting. The cool breeze on the river was a great way to wind down.

Nice quiet cruise along Duoro River

Published on Aug, 2024

Was a nice quick trip to take in the beautiful Duoro Valley scenery. Boat was quiet and made the experience even better.

Brief excursion on beautiful Duoro, very peaceful and calm.

Published on Jun, 2024

Beautiful scenery and audio guide to explain what we were seeing. My husband was using a walking stick for support and the crew were helping getting him safely on and off our boat.

Great boat tour

Published on Apr, 2024

Tour gives a sense of the beauty of the Valley. It was also striking how peaceful the surroundings are. Given earlier in the day, our tour was not very crowded which also helped.
