This is one of the most acclaimed cruises in the Douro. Régua Pier is the first stop for boats departing from Porto, which is one of the main reasons for it being so popular.
Régua (or Peso da Régua in its official name) is considered the “engine of the Douro” and has played a leading role in the development of the region. In the past, it was from this pier that the barrels of Port Wine were transported in Rabelo Boats to Vila Nova de Gaia, near Porto. Enjoy the walk to the pier and admire the beauty of one of the most emblematic places in the Region.
On this cruise you will be able to enjoy incredible landscapes that will surprise you: small clusters that grew up next to Rio, green and more urban landscapes that dazzle us, small vineyards cultivated in terraces on the slopes next to the Douro River. In addition, you will enjoy a sublime train journey, combining two experiences in a single program!
