Heldags sejltur på floden til Douro-dalen med måltider og returtransport

Det er en fantastisk og oplevelsesrig tur. Maden og drikkevarerne om bord overgik langt vores forventninger. Alt gik helt perfekt, lige fra afhentningen til informationen om bord.

En dejlig bådtur gennem to sluser. Morgenmaden var lidt skuffende, men frokosten var fremragende; desværre var der ingen guide. Også kommunikationen var minimal.

Turen tilbage med bussen gav et bedre udsyn over vinmarkerne i Douro end bådturen. På billetten var der angivet tre forskellige mødesteder! Togstationen, Cais Estivan og Cais Gaia. Kun det, at vi huskede at møde op ved Cais Estivan, forhindrede os i at tage til det forkerte sted – ikke ligefrem en opmuntrende start på dagen.

The day started very early. It was a great idea to add the transfer from the hotel to the pier. Quick, comfortable and they even took the suitcases because we stayed at Pinhao and that's why Living Tours gave us a discount when we contacted in the chat. At the beginning, I confess that we were sleepy because we arrived the night before. But the ascension of the first dam made the adrenaline to skyrocket. Wonderful and scary! Impressive engineering works. The day was very good and sunny, so we were (me, my sister and my mother) some time on the deck, but then the sun got really strong and we decided to go back inside the boat, which is very spacious and comfortable. Shortly after lunch was served. We are vegetarian and Living Tours managed to provide us with a vegetarian lunch. The boat staff was very friendly and almost everyone spoke English so communication was easy. We arrived at Pinhao after passing more impressive dams and the beautiful landscapes of the Douro and the crew even helped us get the suitcases of the boat and into the taxi! Thank you very much :)
