Douro Valley, Portugal

Douro Valley Portugal

The Douro Valley could also be called an enchanted valley because of the beauty and magic of its landscapes. Starting in Porto, where the river flows and where both Douro and Port wines are produced, you can explore this Cultural Landscape, classified as a World Heritage Site, by road, by train, on a cruise, or even by helicopter—none of these options will leave you indifferent. Traveling between viewpoints that offer the best panoramas, you’ll cross the river from north to south and back again. Along the way, you can admire breathtaking views over the river and visit vineyards, towns, and villages all the way to Miranda do Douro, where the river enters Portugal.
