1. Enjoy a life time wine experience in Douro Valley Wine Region… The Douro Valley, birthplace of Port, is one of the oldest and most beautiful of the historic European wine regions. Wine has been made there for two thousand years. In 1756 the Douro Valley became the first classic wine region to be legally demarcated. Its vineyards were comprehensively classified the following year, almost a century before those of Bordeaux. Visiting the Douro Valley wine region is the guarantee to discover this beautiful wine region- classified by UNESCO as World Heritage Site, taste fantastic port and DOC wines, appreciate the best flavors and could share ideas and histories with cellar masters if they are available. During this full-day you will live and feel the region with a wine expert, visit some of the best traditional wine producers, taste their wines, taste typical flavors in a winery and appreciate the breathtaking views from the top of the break-neck slopes. In Douro Valley many of the wines are made from genuine Portuguese grape varieties, rather than from international grapes that can be found anywhere in the world today. You will get to know why those grapes and taste wines made from touriga nacional, tinta roriz, touriga franca, sousa and many others.

About Porto

Porto stort zich over steile heuvels naar de Douro, een granieten stad van betegelde kerken, wijnkelders aan de rivier en port die aan de overkant rijpt.

De wijk Ribeira omzoomt de oever met kleurrijke huizen, cafés en boten, onderdeel van een door UNESCO erkend oud centrum onder de ijzeren bogen van de Dom Luís I-brug. Daarboven is de hal van het station São Bento bedekt met blauw-witte azulejo-tegels, rijst de Torre dos Clérigos boven de daken uit en staat de kathedraal Sé op haar heuvel.

Top-ranked sights in Porto: Clérigos Church and Tower (Torre & Igreja dos Clérigos), Dom Luis Bridge (Ponte de Dom Luis I), Porto Cathedral (Sé Catedral do Porto).
