Imagine gliding down the winding Douro River through pristine countryside with AmaWaterways . The steeply terraced hillsides, charming towns and historic vineyards create a dramatic backdrop to your vacation. Explore off the beaten path destinations such as Lamego, where you will be tempted to hike the 700 steps of the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Remedios shrine and taste the local specialties, such as Presunto and Espumante. Enjoy a wine tasting at a local quinta in Pinhão. Of course, a voyage beginning or ending in Porto must include a tasting of its namesake wine. Travelling with AmaWaterways allows you to experience this beautiful region in a truly authentic way.
