Exploring The Douro, Plus Lisbon & Madrid with Tauck
This 12-day journey between Lisbon and Madrid includes a culturally rich 7-night riverboat cruise along the Douro, Portugal’s enchanting river of gold, through one of the oldest wine regions in the world.
Iberian Charms: Capital Cities & Riverside Gems
Lisbon – Two nights in the seaside capital of Portugal invite discoveries of then and now in a delightfully paced parade of monumental sites, palaces aplenty and azulejos chronicling life here from Moorish times to present day.
Madrid – Discover the masterpieces of Madrid – museums royally inspired, culinary creations that make small bites an art and bevy of baroque and belle epoque architecture built to impress – on a two-night stay.
Porto – Embark ship in the UNESCO World Heritage City, where the Douro kisses the Atlantic & timeless Port traditions and treasures steal your heart.
Douro Valley – White-painted quinta estates lined with terraced vineyards are a big part of the draw in this historic UNESCO World Heritage region, thanks to its multicultural heritage, unique grape varieties and fantastic climate. Visit museums, monasteries, castles, picture-perfect villages like Pinhao, and wine making estates in riverside landscapes that beg exploring.
Salamanca – Disembark and drive to the sandstone city of Salamanca en route to Madrid for a tour that includes its 13th-century university and Plaza Mayor.
Wine Rooted In Ancient Civilizations
To taste the wines of the Douro, from fortified Ports to full- bodied reds and light white wines, is to drink in centuries of wine-growing history that date back to the Bronze Age and continue in the wineries you will visit on this river cruise.
