Portugal River Cruises

One of the world's most distinctive wine regions and cities rife with cultural beg your exploration in Portugal. Set sail on the "Golden" Douro River, a breathtaking waterway that meanders from central Spain toward Portugal's sunny Atlantic coastline, cutting through the northern part of the country to reveal scenes you have to see to believe.

Portugal river cruises sail past lush olive groves and orchards of almond trees. Marvel at the views while sailing through the incredibly historic Douro Valley, past sprawling wine estates and small riverside towns where centuries of culture sit well preserved. Fascinating ports of call, including Regua, surrounded by terraced slopes; Lamego, with its Baroque architecture; and Guimarães, whose buildings date to the 10th century. The highlight of any river cruise in Portugal is Porto, a 2,000-year-old city where one drink reigns supreme: Port wine. The best of the Iberian Peninsula is at your fingertips on a cruise vacation.
