Douro guided tour

Description

Our first stop is in a small olive oil press which has been turned into a Museum. This family has been producing for over 4 generations not only olive oil but also excellent wines and important regional products such as almonds, honey and grape juice for children. Near this Museum is located the Viewpoint of Casal de Loivos, with an amazing view over the river and Pinhão, where we will be heading next. On Pinhão peer, the only electrical Rabelo boat in the world awaits us for a small trip upstream, where you can see some vineyards. Coming back from the boat ride, we will check out one of the most beautiful train stations in Portugal. Pinhão train station has sixteen tile panels representing the wine-related processes typical of Douro Culture. For the lunch break, we will eat some traditional dishes at the restaurant Tábua D’Aço, in Tabuaço. The restaurant belongs to Chef Thomas Egger, an Austrian Chef. After this, we will visit the Quinta, classified as a Monument of Public Interest and the manor house, with a small library and a chapel has kept its structure for over 200 years. Finish this magnificent journey with a tasting of this Quinta’s fabulous products.
