Douro Valley River Cruise with Browne Family

Join Browne Family Vineyards for a week-long voyage through Portugal’s Douro Valley, one of the world’s oldest demarcated wine regions and a UNESCO World Heritage landscape shaped by centuries of winemaking. From our custom charter aboard the Porto Mirante, we’ll trace the river’s course through terraced hillsides planted with Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz, and dozens of other native grape varieties. Arriving as the autumn harvest draws to a close and fall color settles across the valley, we’ll explore historic towns, visit private quintas, and taste the wines that have made this valley famous. Along the way, onboard Wine Academy sessions, cooking classes, and a live fado performance bring the culture of northern Portugal to life.
