1. Douro with a View From the Casal de Loivos viewpoint, the landscape is simply breathtaking — considered one of the most beautiful in the entire Douro Valley. From here, you’ll admire a unique panorama of terraced vineyards cascading down the hillsides, interspersed with olive trees and winding dirt paths. The Douro River snakes through the valley below, shimmering under the sun and creating a striking contrast with the lush green vines. Traditional small wineries dot the landscape, adding to the region’s serene and authentic atmosphere. But the experience doesn’t stop at the view — it becomes even more special with a visit to a local wine and olive oil producer. You’ll discover the artisanal process behind two of the region’s greatest treasures: Douro wine and extra virgin olive oil. The visit includes a guided tasting, where you’ll sample different wine styles, paired with estate-produced olive oil — a sensory journey that connects the flavours to the stunning scenery around you.

3. Régua – The Heart of the Douro’s Wine Heritage On this tour, we’ll take you to Régua, considered the capital of the Douro Demarcated Region. More than just a city, Régua is a symbol of the Douro’s history and identity. For centuries, this was the departure point for boats loaded with barrels of Port wine, making their way down the river to Vila Nova de Gaia — carrying with them the essence of the Douro. Today, we visit a traditional winery that keeps this heritage alive, where you’ll taste authentic wines and feel the weight of tradition in every drop. Beyond the tasting, you’ll also have the chance to experience the city from a unique perspective — discovering its history, landscape, and deep connection to the Douro River.

About Pinhão

Pinhão is a small river village in Portugal's Douro Valley, at the heart of the terraced port-wine vineyards, with a railway station covered in blue tiles.

Pinhão sits on the north bank of the Douro river in northern Portugal, where the steep valley sides are cut into terraces of vines. This is the heart of the Alto Douro Wine Region, where port is made, first marked out as a wine area in the eighteenth century and now listed by UNESCO. The railway station is covered with panels of blue-and-white azulejo tiles showing the grape harvest and local scenes, and trains of the Douro line run along the river.
