Highlights of the Douro Valley & Salamanca - MS Riviera Rose

Explore Portugal - one of the oldest countries in Europe - while meandering along the beautifully tranquil Douro River. Experience Portugal's wine-making traditions and explore the country’s fascinating history. See for yourself why the Douro Valley has been awarded UNESCO World Heritage status as we sail along its picturesque riverbanks. We'll slip past miles of terraced hills with vineyards which rise in the steep terrace from the shoreline and spot quintas on the hillsides in the distance. Explore this enchanting region with an itinerary that encompasses a mixture of authentic local experiences, sightseeing and plenty of opportunity to taste Portuguese port and wine. Experience the city of Porto, where you can roam the port warehouses and take in the town’s rich cultural heritage. Enjoy free time in the quaint town of Lamego, home of Portugal’s sparkling wine, Raposeira. Visit the walled village of Castelo Rodrigo and the well-manicured gardens of Mateus Gardens. Explore historic Salamanca, a UNESCO Site and one of Iberia’s oldest university towns. This river cruise captures the scenic beauty of the Douro Valley - ideal for wine aficionados, history buffs and architecture enthusiasts.
