Travel Tip: Cruising the Douro River

The Douro river valley in Portugal is one of the MOST popular itineraries in river cruising - and I finally understand why! Tune in to hear some insights about this amazing travel experience (with a little sneak peek at how beautiful the scenery is as you sail along). While I traveled with the awesome Tauck Tours, I kept this one general about the river and what you can expect.

Did you post another video showing the trip? We are planning a fall trip next year down the Douro and would love to see your pictures.

Just returned from the seven day round trip, all inclusive drinks, tips, excursions and travel insurance with door to door travel. It was brilliant shop around the different tour companies for the best price. The ships are owned by the same company that owns the coaches and a hotel in Porto. Douro Azul

If you were cruising from Madrid to Lisbon on the Douro, would you recommend a starboard or port cabin for the best views while in your room? Thank you!

Interesting video with info regarding Porto, although a friendly tip by a fellow tour guide. It’s really exhausting watching almost a 10min video of someone constantly talking about a destination without showing any other content of the destination you’re talking about. Like that the video would be more attractive, engaging and by far more interactive!

The subtitles replace one of your French words... with the English word "Genocide." Pretty funny!
