We stayed at the Quinta Monte Bravo, a bit off the beaten track but lovely and Teresa's dinners were far better than at any restaurant we visited in Portugal except maybe one. The sheer beauty of the terraced vineyards and olive groves plus the beautiful and historic river Douro are just amazing! And, yes, this is a UNESCO World Heritage site, which speaks for itself!

We took the bus tour, our driver/tour guide Fernando is a great guy, he gave us a really good history explanation of the vinyard, all the how's and why's and the views are really stunning, afterwards we had a delightful taste of different port wines, they also offer a terrace service where you can order some food and keep tasting different wines, we had a cheese board and sausage mix, everything was really good and the service outstanding!

Portugal has many beautiful railway stations, but Pinhao's must rank with the best. The four walls of the station are decorated with 24 blue glazed mosaics depicting scenes from the Douro Valley, especially those related to the production of port wine.

Even in February a cruise down the Douro is a balm for the soul. These hour or two hour cruises, narrated in Portuguese, English, and French, leave from Pinhão and travel either to Quinta da Romaneira (1 hour) or Tua (2 hours). Sit back and relax in comfort on a modern reproduction of one of the traditional Rabelo boats which used to carry wine barrels and other freight down the Douro. Spectacular views of the vineyards rising from the river to almost 1000 feet show off the terraces to great effect. A family friendly outing on the river.
