We will take a break to rest and sunbathe, take a dip in the river or do activities such as paddle surfing, and then enjoy an aperitif on board accompanied by Casas do Coro Rosé wine.
The journey ends at our exclusive Casa da Linha Férrea. A traditional building from the old railway line, completely renovated and decorated in a boho chic style, where a group lunch will be prepared at a large table.

Discover this amazing natural beauty
The tour begins at Casa da Linha Férrea, the first building of the River Tourism project that we have underway. At around eleven o'clock in the morning, we begin a crossing that reaches the mouth of Ribeira de Aguiar, where we will stop at a cove that is ideal for swimming.
During the journey, we can enjoy the incredible natural beauty of this region, which stands out for its geological importance. The Arribes del Duero Gorge is the most notable. It is an impressive gorge carved by the river, whose granite cliffs rise up to four hundred meters above water level, creating a landscape of unparalleled grandeur.
The Douro Cliffs are protected as a Natural Park, both in Portugal and Spain, to ensure the preservation of their unique biodiversity, which is home to a wide variety of flora and fauna that create a unique and captivating landscape.
This environment has another unique feature: the Terraced Vineyards. The hillsides of the Douro River are home to this peculiar agricultural system that is a testament to human ingenuity and its adaptation to the mountainous terrain. The grapes grown on these terraces are used to produce the famous Port wine.
