ABOUT THE DOURO VALLEY

PORTUGAL

Tucked away in northern Portugal, the Douro Valley is a place where time slows down, the sun lingers over rolling vineyards, and the river carves its way through centuries of history. This is the birthplace of Port wine, a land of golden hills and terraced vines cultivated for over 2,000 years. Whether you're a wine lover, an adventurer, or simply seeking a quiet escape, the Douro Valley offers something magical—waking up to mist rising over the valley, the first rays of sunlight painting the vineyards in hues of gold, and the promise of world-class wines, scenic river cruises, and charming villages that feel untouched by time.
