PORTUGAL
Douro Valley and North Portugal
The Douro Valley is located in the North of Portugal, extending from the city of Porto to the eastern border, where the Port wine production activities and the unique scenery sculpted the Douro river and its tributaries are highlights not to be missed.
The hills and the green valleys that melt into the Douro river and its tributaries, fields coloured by the almond tree blossom, unique animals and rare plants… In the Douro valley, there is no shortage of breathtaking landscapes that constantly change their colours over the seasons.
If you have more time, you can visit Guimaraes (Unesco site), Braga or Viana do Castelo on the Atlantic coast.
