After the wine tasting, we'll prepare a picnic lunch for you. Take the opportunity to decompress and connect with nature.
After enjoying all this tranquillity while tasting the flavors of the Douro, we'll have a new transfer ready for you that will take you to the Pinhão train station so that you can return to Porto by train along the famous Douro line!
