The valley
How the day unfolds
Spot the stages that shape the day, from pick-up in Porto to the short stretch on the Douro.
Porto
Minibus departure from Calçada da Vandoma.
Preparation tip Don't confuse the minibus meeting point, near the cathedral, with the cruise quay in Ribeira. The exact address is on your voucher.
Amarante
A first stop in the historic centre.
Preparation tip In Amarante, look at how the old centre relates to the Tâmega river. Follow the regrouping time given by the guide.
In the valley
Lunch and a tasting at an estate.
Preparation tip Ask in advance what is planned for your diet. If you mainly want to compare several wines or visit several wineries, look at the vineyard tour too.
Pinhão
A short boat ride among the terraces.
Preparation tip The boat ride is part of the trip. Check boat access and the stated time if this is your priority.
Porto
Return to Rua de Alexandre Herculano.
Preparation tip Note the drop-off point in Porto before planning a connection. Leave time to get back to your accommodation.
The right choice if you don't want to coordinate anything
The road links places that are far apart. This trip handles transfers, lunch and visits in a single booking. The boat ride is part of the day, but only a small portion of it.
If you prefer the train
A self-guided day works better around a single place. Get to Pinhão, see the azulejos at the station, then pick a boat ride from the village. Check the last train before booking the boat.
