Wake up to the breathtaking landscapes of the Douro Valley and recharge with a delicious breakfast at the hotel, surrounded by terraced vineyards and river views.
Just a short walk from your hotel, discover Quinta do Bomfim, located in the heart of the world’s oldest demarcated wine region, the Upper Douro Valley. This historic estate has been family-owned by the Symington family for five generations and is a cornerstone of Douro winemaking heritage. During your visit, explore the winery and the old wine cellar, stroll through the vineyards, and learn about the legacy and craftsmanship behind some of Portugal’s most iconic wines. Your experience includes a guided tour and a wine tasting of family-produced Ports and Douro DOC wines, enjoyed on the terrace with sweeping views over the Douro River and surrounding vineyards.
Following the visit, enjoy a picnic at Quinta do Bomfim, set among the vineyards in one of the most scenic corners of the Douro Valley. Relax and savor a selection of regional products, while taking in the extraordinary landscape and river views.
In the afternoon, continue your wine journey with a visit to Quinta das Carvalhas, one of the most emblematic estates in the Douro Valley. Perched high above the river, the estate offers panoramic viewpoints, diverse vineyard plots, and an insightful look into the region’s unique terroirs and grape varieties. Enjoy a guided visit that highlights the estate’s history, vineyards, and winemaking philosophy.

Feel like a true sailor as you glide through the river’s dramatic landscapes in a unique and authentic setting.
