Overview

Discover two northern Portuguese wine regions in one private full-day tour from Porto, combining the freshness of Vinho Verde with the depth and scenery of the Douro Valley.

With a licensed driver-guide, begin in Amarante, one of the north’s most charming river towns, with São Gonçalo Church, the bridge, riverside views and the option of a local pastry stop.

Continue toward the Vinho Verde landscape, where you may add a guided visit and tasting at Quinta da Covela, known for freshness, elegance and regional identity.

Then follow the scenic N222 into Peso da Régua, enjoy a calm riverfront orientation and shape the afternoon with a Douro wine tasting or Rabelo boat cruise, selected separately after booking with clear pricing and no hidden markups.

A private, scenic and beautifully balanced day for travelers who want culture, wine contrast and Douro atmosphere.

Please note: While the winery visit is included, wine tastings are optional and not included in the tour price.
