Feeling energetic? The famous 686 steps to one of Portugal’s most important pilgrimage sites, the Santuário de Nossa Senhora dos Remédios in Lamego is a must. You’ll find a baroque church with its two towers, built in the 18th century and adorned with beautiful blue and white azulejos.

Lamego Barca d’Alva Vega de Ter rón Salamanca

Take a journey into history in Salamanca. Home to one of Europe’s oldest universities, a monumental cathedral and the spectacular Plaza Mayor, pegged as one of the most beautiful central plazas in all of Spain, this mesmerising city comes into its own as the sun begins to set.

Enjoy a typical port wine tasting by supremos Croft at the Quinta da Roeda. Bask in views across the valley as you enjoy a tour of the estate followed by a glass of the vineyard’s signature Pink Port. Even better, this experience is included on all our Douro cruises!
