I highly recommend taking the boat ride featured in this video with Daurum Solar Boats. The boat is powered by solar panels and you can even have a wine tasting while enjoying the quiet and spectacular experience along the Douro River: Check out these guys here: daurum.pt

Hahah, it was not done as a promotional video, but more to share our experience in the Douro which I loved so much. Thank You for the compliment. 🙏🏻
Traveling vicariously through Agnes!

I agree! 😥
Love the Douro! But also love the sea, so I’m moving from the US to the Minho region in October. I AM a composer actually. So perhaps I’ll compose that symphony. ;-)

😄😄😄 could You please? I was really so moved by the beauty of the nature in Douro, that I felt it inspires to write, paint compose, to be creative’ ☺️ So I hope You do compose that symphony! 😌
Dear Agnes, this video brought me back in time at 2013 when i First visited Douro Valley and the city o Porto. I found such Amazing wines apart front Porto wines which were Amazing. I stayed in Pinhao and Villa Real for 1 week and then i came to Oporto. Still Remember those wine expertices in several quintas alongside the River and Villanova de Gaja 😁🍾🍷

What an amazing experience You had, and a whole week’ amazing! 🤩
I drove upstream in the spring of 2019 from Porto to Peso da Régua on a hired 500C with the rooftop down. The views were trully magnificent. Our last stop was a tasting at Vasques de Carvalho's wine bar where we tasted everything they had and the most memorable was going through the 10, 20, 30 and 40yo Tawnies. I miss that place so much...

What an amazing experience, WOW! Both the region and the wines, they can impress! ☺️
Nice video to give a good summary, but not very much wine?? 🍷 Pinhao is a lovely village.

This is part of video format I do, and It is not made to compete to how much wines taste and how much wineries to visit. But rather overview of the region. 🙏🏻
Thanks, port is so under-represented on KZread. Also, which restaurant did you visit?
Totally unrelated to wine but i miss ur long hair.
