Castelo Rodrigo or Foz Côa Engravings Museum - Enjoy a lazy morning sailing, relaxing over a leisurely breakfast. While we cruise down the river, you’ll have the opportunity to test out our brand-new facilities or lounge on the sundeck with a book - although we make no promises that you’ll be able to concentrate with views like these.In the past, the Douro river was untamed and difficult to navigate, especially for the flat-bottomed boats that frequently sank in its waters. Today, the river has been controlled with dams and locks that have raised the water level, resulting in a landscape similar to Scotland's lochs and adding to the beauty of the valley - which we'll have time to appreciate as we sail this morning.You have a couple of choices to choose from for this afternoon. Choose to visit the historic 12th-century walled village of Castelo Rodrigo, tucked away in the picturesque highland ranges bordering Spain. The village is home to a well-preserved Gothic castle, a rare example of Leonese-style architecture. It's said that Saint Francis stayed here as the church was a resting place on the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela. From Castelo Rodrigo, enjoy unobstructed views of the Spanish border and beyond - you can also see the town of Figueira de Castelo Rodrigo and the Monastery of Santa Maria de Aguiar.Alternatively, you can choose a tour of the Foz Côa Engravings Museum. The vast area of the Côa Valley boasts a fascinating collection of outdoor rock art. Whilst you won’t see the actual rock art on your guided tour of the indoor museum, you can engage with portable art pieces, see replicas of engraved panels, and enjoy interactive displays that utilise cutting-edge digital technology. Following the tour, you'll have some time to wander the outdoor spaces. There's also an opportunity to hike to a scenic viewpoint; however, keep in mind that this path includes numerous steps and may be physically challenging.Please make your choice of excursion prior to travel.

Salamanca or Almeida - Today you have a choice of tours:On this full day tour, we head across the border and visit historic Salamanca, one of several UNESCO World Heritage Sites on this journey, regarded by many Spaniards as their nation’s most beautiful city. Located in western Spain, Salamanca combines history, culture and vibrant energy. This morning, you will have some time at leisure to explore Salamanca on your own. Maybe visit the Casa Lis Art Nouveau & Art Deco Museum or the city's famous Plaza Mayor where many love affairs began. It was common from the mid-14th to the mid-20th century for men and women to walk in opposite directions around the gardens at the centre of the square to set up dates. If you're still looking for your one true love, you’re (unfortunately) out of luck as this tradition has faded out over time but the Plaza Mayor is still a must-see with a grand square with intricate facades and bustling cafés - a great place to stop and relax.Then we'll embark on a guided tour of the city and visit Salamanca's two cathedrals.The old cathedral, built in the 12th century, is a beautiful example of Gothic and Baroque architecture featuring a stunning fresco of the Final Judgement in the Apse. The new cathedral shares a wall with the old one. It was built in the 16th century in a matching Gothic style to keep harmony with the old cathedral. Here you can enjoy the elaborately carved choir before continuing our guided tour of the city.Over a local lunch including typical Spanish tapas, we'll be seduced by the fiery passion and energy of a traditional flamenco show before we head back to the ship.On this morning's tour, we head to the fortified town of Almeida, which endured a lengthy siege during the Peninsular War. Once deemed unassailable, the fortress bravely withstood French attacks for 12 days until a massive explosion in its ammunition depot left it vulnerable to invasion. The blast was so immense that some granite debris was reported to have been scattered as far as three miles away. Evidence of the town's defensive architecture remains intact, featuring casemates, watchtowers, concealed passages, and cannon embrasures in various sections of the fortress.This formidable structure consists of a network of bulwarks, ravelins, platforms, and deep trenches, surrounded by a moat with just two entrances, both secured by bomb-proof gates. While the fortress walls may appear typical from ground level, a bird's-eye view reveals an intricate 12-point star design. This layout effectively eliminated blind spots, allowing defenders to direct fire at the enemy from multiple angles, thus enhancing their defensive capabilities.Next, we’ll explore the captivating Museu Histórico Militar de Almeida, which showcases an array of weaponry, uniforms, and military artefacts from different historical periods. These exhibits are housed in underground chambers that once served as storage and refuge during sieges, creating a unique atmosphere to delve into Almeida's military heritage.After some leisure time in the village, we'll make our way back to the ship for lunch, then spend the afternoon unwinding onboard as you wish.

Pinhão and Lamego or Mateus Palace - On arrival after a leisurely breakfast, we'll enjoy free time before lunch in the picturesque town of Pinhão, which sits on a bend of the Douro, encircled by a terraced hillside. Here, some of the world's best port and table wines are produced. Join our guide for an orientation walk or wander through the town of white buildings and terracotta-coloured roofs and visit the delightful train station decorated with azulejos - Portuguese hand-painted tiles - celebrating Pinhão history with images of the grape harvest.After lunch back on board, you have a couple of excursions to choose from this afternoon.The historic city of Lamego is known for its church, the Sanctuary of Nossa Senhora dos Remédios, which is situated at the top of a beautifully tiled baroque staircase. If you’re up for a challenge, it’s worth taking the 686 steps from the top of the staircase back to the town at the bottom for stunning views of the city - don't worry, you can stop to admire the fountains, mosaics and hedges along the way.Other highlights of this delightful town include an ancient Moorish castle, a Gothic cathedral and elegant 18th-century villas. Head to the Avenida - the town's grand boulevard - for tea in one of the open-air cafés and to test your bargaining skills at the market stalls.Alternatively, you can visit Mateus Palace and its iconic gardens. Wine aficionados will recognise the palace from the label of Mateus Rosé, whose logo depicts the impressive facade. The owner of Mateus Palace was offered a few pennies commission for every bottle sold. However, he turned it down in favour of a one-off lump sum. This was a major mistake as the brand became one of the most successful wines, exported to over 100 countries and it continues to be Portugal's number one-selling wine. Despite this financial misstep, the well-preserved Mateus Palace is still one of the finest examples of Baroque architecture in Portugal. Here, there'll be time to explore the gardens surrounding the palace, decorated with boxwood hedges, statues and a fragrant cypress tunnel and view the magnificent structure from all angles.

Onshore Experiences

Onshore Experiences

We are a well-travelled collective - made up of our guests as well as our team. We'll admit it - we're obsessed with travel.

But that's not our only interest. We also love architecture, history, the arts, and gastronomy - everything that makes a culture unique. And we plan our itineraries to ensure we're catering to those interests. Perfecting every excursion to ensure you get the most out of your onshore adventures.

Most days are filled with full or half-day excursions. Whether that's a city tour, an introduction to a brand-new town or a more in-depth visit to a specific landmark or attraction. You'll see the very best of every destination. Not just the legendary locations, we'll uncover the top-secret local spots too.

World-famous landmarks

You'll get to experience some world-famous destinations in the company of our passionate local guides. Sites like the Benedictine Melk Abbey on the Danube, spectacular Pont du Gard on the Rhône, Keukenhof Gardens - the world's largest flower gardens - on the Dutch Waterways and Cologne with its cathedral, the largest Gothic church in Northern Europe.

A taste of your destination

Food has the uncanny ability to reveal the softer parts of the destination most tourists overlook. Recipes passed down through the generations slowly become ingrained within a culture, featuring fresh local produce and traditional cooking techniques. Our excursions often include delicious local produce perfected over centuries - sample cheese in Switzerland and chocolate in Germany (it's not a cruise for those watching their weight), wine tasting in the world-famous wine region of Burgundy and port in the port wine cellars of Porto.

For even more, why not choose one of our Gastronomy themed departures?

Authentic cultural experiences

Our river cruise itineraries deliver authentic and engaging moments to fully immerse you in the culture. You'll remember being seduced by the fiery passion of flamenco dancing after a cruise along the Douro. Hold on to that feeling of wonder you felt as you watch the glassblower creating the most beautiful vase out of a glowing mass. And tell the stories you heard during a Hungarian folklore show to your grandchildren at bedtime. The memory of these authentic cultural experiences will last a lifetime.
