8 Day All-Inclusive River Cruise

Join your experienced and gracious hosts, Renae Perry, Ben & Yolanda Papapietro and fellow wine enthusiasts along the Douro River through Portugal and into Spain. As you glide along the Douro, you’ll find yourself surrounded by olive groves, almond orchards and citrus plantations and terraced hillsides adorned with rows of vineyards producing the world-famous Port wine.

Explore Porto’s historic Ribeira district, home to iconic rabelo boats, cutting-edge cuisine and a thriving art scene. Wind your way through the dramatic landscapes of the UNESCO-designated Douro Valley, heading ashore to visit charming quintas and meet the winemakers who operate them. In Salamanca, Spain, you’ll see the city’s famous university. Return to Portugal with a visit to the fortified village of Castelo Rodrigo and historic Guimarães.

Look forward to exclusive events onboard and ashore with your hosts. There’s no better way to discover Europe’s best-kept secret than this scenic and all-inclusive river cruise with Papapietro Perry!
