Private Douro Valley Solar Boat Tour with Wine Tasting from Pinhão

Treat yourself and your guests to a private, one-hour cruise on the stunning Douro River, departing from Pinhão, the heart of the Douro Valley.

Step aboard a silent, solar-powered boat—an eco-friendly vessel offering a peaceful, luxurious way to explore the valley’s terraced vineyards, historic quintas, and scenic riverbanks.

Your private tour includes a guided tasting of two premium wines from Adega de Favaios, paired with light seasonal snacks. You’ll also enjoy the opportunity to personalize your journey—whether you want to focus on wildlife, photography, or Douro’s fascinating winemaking history.

For an extra-special touch, consider adding a cheese and ham tapas board, a premium wine tasting, or the region’s famous pastéis de nata with Moscatel wine.
