Encounter a rare slice of Old-World Europe on our Dionysian odyssey through romantic wine country. Savor nature, culture and cuisine on a unique adventure that is ours alone. Tapping our years of connections in the Upper Douro Valley, we’re pleased to offer this rare personal immersion in a bucolic corner of Portugal where peace and tradition prevail. Watch hawks soar over rugged mountains terraced with ancient vineyards. Wander through olive and almond orchards. Witness 30,000-year-old rock art in the Coa Valley. Paddle the tranquil Douro River, watching the sun glint on the glassy surface as we glide through northern Portugal’s Port wine district. After full days of exploration, revel in convivial evenings on centuries-old quintas, the wine estates of the Douro. Within these hospitable family-run inns, gain an inside view on contemporary rural life in Portugal. As our hosts say, "A sua saude"—To your health!
