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.

The village of Pinhão, located in the heart of the Douro wine region, is a unique and charming place, deeply connected to the production of Port wine. Set along the banks of the Douro River, it offers stunning views of terraced vineyards and calm, reflective waters.
One of its highlights is the Pinhão railway station, famous for its beautiful tile panels that depict the history and wine traditions of the region. Another iconic landmark is the metal bridge over the Douro River — an impressive piece of engineering that reflects the ingenuity of its time.
In Pinhão, you can visit some of the most prestigious wineries in the region, enjoy exclusive wine tastings, and learn about the winemaking process. You can also take a boat ride on the Douro River, departing from the village dock, offering an unforgettable perspective of the beauty and grandeur of this UNESCO World Heritage Site.
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.
