Douro river cruises
The Douro carves a route past postcard-pretty villages, terraced vineyards and family-run quintas. Dramatic panoramas unfold at every turn as the river travels from the sun-drenched heart of Iberia to coastal Porto.
Our Douro river cruises focus on the sights, sounds and tastes of the region, with port wine tastings, fado performances and excursions guided by local experts.

What to expect along the Douro river...
A treat for wine connoisseurs
Following the river north, the Upper Douro region is a paradise for wine lovers. Enjoy Portugal’s finest wines (and ports, of course!), either on board or at one of the quintas (country estates) and wineries dotting the river banks.
Culture and history
On a Douro river cruise, you’ll have the chance to visit towns and cities on or near the river – places like Guimarães, described as the ‘Cradle of the Portuguese nation’, and historic Salamanca, just across the border in Spain. Porto makes a memorable start to your cruise, with its hilly cobbled streets and imposing bridges.
Foodie favourite
The Douro region is known for its delicious cuisine, from fresh seafood and hearty meat dishes, to home-grown fruit and vegetables bursting with flavour. Douro cruises give you plenty of opportunity to sample local dishes, whether it’s on board the ship or in one of our ports of call.
