Join Bon Voyage Boutique Travel on the Douro River!
​September 2024

Rambling vineyards and charming native farms cling to the steep sides of the Douro River Valley, creating an incomparable backdrop to one of Europe's most unspoiled regions and to Port country- the world's oldest demarcated wine region. We will be sailing roundtrip from Porto, the beautiful "City of Bridges." Stops included a visit to Regua, the 'capital' of the Douro Valley and a day trip to Salamanca, the UNESCO-designated "Golden City." Enjoy wines from historic wineries and soak up the genuine beauty of one of Europe's most unadulterated landscapes

Travelers can join in an optional 3-night add-on in Lisbon before the cruise! We will enjoy a city tour, culinary tour, and free-time to enjoy the beach.

We will be sailing with AmaWaterways on the beautiful AmaDouro. This ship has 51 spacious staterooms for guests to relax in. The AmaDouro has a Panoramic Lounge to enjoy a glass of wine or a cocktail along with nightly entertainment. The ship also features a massage room, fitness room, sun-deck swimming pool, as well as the culinary delights of the Main Restaurant, where you'll be able to sample the region's famous Port wine.
