In order to experience the vibrant culture and rich history of Portugal, we wanted to give you time in the stunning capital, Lisbon, and the picturesque city of Porto. In Lisbon, wander through the charming streets of Alfama, sample delicious local delicacies, and soak in breathtaking views from the iconic Belém Tower. Then, travel to Porto, the “City of Bridges,” where you can admire stunning architecture, taste world-renowned Port wine in its historic cellars, and enjoy leisurely strolls along the scenic Ribeira waterfront. Each city offers a unique blend of tradition and modernity, ensuring you’re captivated by its enchanting atmosphere.

Onboard the luxurious AmaDouro, your river cruise experience is enhanced by a wealth of top-notch amenities and thoughtfully curated excursions. The crew are so attentive, its as if the whole experience has been curated especially for you.  Enjoy spacious staterooms, gourmet dining featuring regional cuisine paired with complimentary local wines, and a range of leisure options, including a sun-deck swimming pool and Zen Wellness Studio. As you cruise through the majestic Douro River Valley, prepare for a delightful tour of charming villages, including Regua and Pinhão, where you’ll tour historic wineries, indulge in delicious tastings, and marvel at breathtaking landscapes—all designed to create unforgettable memories of your Portuguese adventure!

Your trip begins in Lisbon, where you will spend 2 nights before jumping on a high-speed rail connection to Porto.  Here, you will board your luxurious river cruiser and travel up the Douro Valley, stopping in Régua, Vega de Terrón and Pinhao, before turning around and slowly heading back to Porto.
