What is included

Options and departures

The single option covers the cruise and tasting, with a guide for the station visit. It runs daily between 10:00 and 17:00, with no fixed departure times supplied.

Means: Choose the quinta slot first if tasting matters most, then arrange your 50 minutes afloat around it.

Meeting point and pickup

Meeting point

The Douro Tours kiosk is at Cais do Pinhão on Travessa da Marginal, by the river.

Getting between activities

You cover the journeys between activities yourself. Transport and a guide for those walks are outside the programme.

Walking

Wear shoes suited to walking between visits, as the programme requires a moderate level of fitness.

Who it is for

This suits you if you want a tasting of three wines alongside the boat and can walk between activities. Set aside three hours for the activities. Your lunch remains a separate purchase.

For river time alone, Douro Tours' short boat trip costs from €15 per adult; the boat has no toilet. If you want lunch arranged, Deltatur's lunch cruise costs from €85 per adult and includes a restaurant meal. The return train ticket is extra.

Means: Book the single option if you want both the tasting and boat; arrange its activity times around your onward travel.

Not for

• Travellers who need transport between the activities
• Visitors who want lunch included
• Anyone expecting a fully guided day

In harvest: book the quinta visit ahead for September and October, and arrange any grape picking separately.
