Our cruise starts in the UNESCO World Heritage city of Porto. From there we will set sail towards the interior of northern Portugal. On the way we will pass through gorges dotted with vineyards, green riverbanks populated by a very hospitable people, the highest lock in Europe (36 metres high) and enjoy unspoilt landscapes. During the cruise you will be able to visit another World Heritage city in the Spanish territory, Salamanca.

    Dear Jean Marie, Thank you so much for your understanding and positive feedback! While we regret that high water levels prevented us from passing through some locks and dams, we're delighted to hear that you appreciated the alternative bus excursions. Our team always strives to ensure our guests have a memorable experience, no matter the circumstances. We're glad you enjoyed seeing more of the beautiful countryside, and we hope to welcome you on another cruise soon—hopefully with perfect sailing conditions! Cruce team
