For two quinta visits, choose Douro Autêntico with local pickup, from €219 per adult. Take Detours for central Porto pickup and a picnic, from €170 per person in a group of 6.

Means: Take the 9:00 English Douro option for local collection; use a Porto option if you need pickup in the city.

  • Travellers with spinal injuries
  • Anyone without moderate physical fitness

In harvest: book the private day ahead for September or October; grape picking is outside the quinta visit.

Know before you go

Children and seating

Children aged 5 to 12 have their own band; adult places start at 13. Infant places cover ages 0 to 4, with seats available. Arrange seating beforehand because the information also mentions babies travelling on an adult's lap.

Douro pickup

Collection begins 10 minutes before the 9:00 departure for the English option starting in the Douro. Porto collection needs a separate option.

Fitness and access

You need moderate fitness for the tracks and stops. Skip this tour during pregnancy or with spinal injuries; ask Deltatur about boarding with a wheelchair because the access information conflicts.

A minimum traveller condition applies. Ask Deltatur for the required number before booking; it is not supplied for this option. Request the arrangements for your hour by boat in poor weather; no separate weather cancellation rule is given.

Cancellation deadline

You receive a full refund for cancellation at least 24 hours before the scheduled start. Late cancellations do not receive a refund.

Ticket and booking

Bookings need an adult and accept 1 to 14 travellers. The booking is accepted immediately. Bring your mobile ticket and walking shoes; the booking limit does not describe seats per vehicle.
