Pinhão - One of the benefits of life aboard a river cruise is the sheer sense of relaxation it brings; our elegant ship slips its moorings during breakfast and we enjoy most of the day sailing. There is plenty of time for a spot of pampering in the on-board spa, or simply watch the seamless changing of the riverbank scenery passing by from the comfort of a cosy seat in the lounge.We’re in port wine territory, where the lush hillsides have largely given way to a patterned landscape of terraced vineyards. Inland from the Atlantic, the climate has changed, too; it’s noticeably warmer and drier, while the area has a Mediterranean appearance with orangey, earthy colours replacing verdant greens.Later we arrive back in the pretty little town of Pinhão. This afternoon we enjoy a visit to a local historic quinta to learn all about the stages of wine production, from the planting of the vines, harvesting, the wine-making process and finally tasting and labelling. No visit would be complete without sampling some of their excellent produce of course, so we enjoy a tasting before returning to the ship.We are moored overnight in Pinhão.

Programme
Castelo Rodrigo - This morning, early risers can witness the ship’s graceful departure. Relax over a leisurely breakfast whilst the ever-changing scenery idly slips by through the restaurant’s superb panoramic windows. The Douro was once a wild river, notoriously challenging to navigate, especially for the traditional flat-bottomed boats, which often foundered in its waters. Today it has been tamed by a system of dams and locks, which have raised the water level to produce a topography reminiscent of Scotland’s lochs that enhances the valley’s charm.As we cruise into ever more rural territory towards the Spanish border, the river here is at its most peaceful. It’s the perfect time to take a refreshing dip in the Sun Deck pool – a rare treat on a cruise ship – or catch up on some reading, perhaps with a cool pre-lunch glass of vinho verde, the local, gently fizzy white wine. Portuguese wine is just outstanding, but production is low, so the best is rarely exported. Our on-board wine list includes some excellent regional wines, and the friendly and attentive restaurant staff will gladly guide you through them. Do experiment a little and you’ll be greatly rewarded.This afternoon we visit Castelo Rodrigo, a delightful 12th-century walled village tucked away in the picturesque highland ranges bordering Spain. Its church was a resting place on the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela and it is said that Saint Francis himself stayed here. The views are simply stupendous, stretching across almost-deserted ochre hillsides.This evening after dinner we will see a celebratory vintage port wine opened in the traditional way, then head up on to the sun deck to listen to the unmistakable sound of crickets and breathe in the scents from the surrounding valley slopes that pervade the warm evening air.Personalise your holiday -Rock Art of the Côa Valley at Penascosa   * Duration: 4hrs * Price: £69pp (2025) £76pp (2026)The adventure begins as you arrive at Castelo Melhor, where you’ll meet your local guides and board 4x4 vehicles. As you travel along the dirt tracks, the landscape unfolds before you - rolling fields dotted with olive and almond trees stretch across the horizon, offering a glimpse into the traditional rural beauty of the region. The path leads you deeper into the countryside, where you’ll be taken on a short walk to find five ancient, engraved rocks, each one telling its own story of the past.  After soaking in the historical wonders, you'll return to the ship, your heart full of memories of this unique experience.    The valley can be very hot in the summer, you should prepare for high temperatures. Hats, sunblock, and lots of water are essential. There are some shaded areas at the site, but the rocks themselves are all exposed and you will be standing and walking in the sun.Optional excursion can be done instead of the excursion to Castelo Rodrigo and is available between May and September only.Please contact us for more information and to add the above experience to your booking. Space is limited, but minimum numbers also apply, so if not enough guests opt for this extra, it may not happen.

Salamanca
Programme
Salamanca - Today we have a guided tour of historic Salamanca, seeing its main sights. This is one of the many UNESCO World Heritage Sites on this journey, regarded by many Spaniards as their nation’s most beautiful city. Founded by the Romans, who erected its 389-yard-long bridge, Salamanca is mostly built from local sandstone that emanates a gorgeous rose-coloured glow in the sunlight. Perched on a hill on a bend in the serene River Tormes, the city is a picture of tranquillity, but its history is turbulent, having been successively fought over by Hannibal, the Moors, then the Duke of Wellington and Napoleon.Salamanca is dominated by its two cathedrals and its university. Founded in 1218, the university is the oldest in Spain and was one of the civilised world’s most important seats of study for over 400 years. The Spanish Inquisition’s records are still kept here, and as early as the 16th century it boasted some 12,000 students. Seeing its immaculately preserved lecture halls with their vaulted ceilings, it’s easy to conjure an image of Christopher Columbus addressing the learned men of the day or legal experts constructing the international laws that originate here.We have a special treat over lunch, as we sample Spanish tapas accompanied by a traditional flamenco show.There will also be free time to explore as you wish. Maybe visit the Casa Lis, an Art Nouveau and At Deco Museum, housing over 2500 items. You may choose to linger, admiring the ornate interiors of its cathedrals – the more recent dates from the 16th-century. Or you could explore Salamanca’s tiny streets, medieval squares, traditional shops, gardens and marketplaces. The main square, the Plaza Mayor, was built in the 18th-century in Spanish Baroque style with colonnaded walkways all around at ground level, ideal for finding a shaded spot to sit and watch the locals pass by.We return to our ship for another excellent dinner.

Mateus Palace Gardens - As dawn breaks over Porto the adventure begins as our elegant vessel commences her stately passage upstream. Your first delicious breakfast is served by the attentive crew and whilst you linger over another coffee, you can really start to unwind as we leave the city skyline far behind. There’s a perfect opportunity to avail yourself of some of the ship’s range of five-star facilities – maybe a little gentle exercise in the fitness room before heading up on deck to appreciate the changing landscape in all its splendour as the river weaves its way between the lush hillsides; from the first morning on board, it’s very apparent that the Douro is one of Europe’s most photogenic river valleys and the topography has prevented the building of extensive riverside roads.  This afternoon you have a couple of choices.After another superb lunch on board, we stop at the village of Folgosa, from where we visit the grounds of the splendid Mateus Palace and its sublime palace interiors. Anyone familiar with Mateus Rosé and its characteristic ‘squashed’ bottle will recognise the palace from the label. Whatever your opinion of the wine, it is an impressive 18th-century Baroque edifice, mirrored in its stunning pond, surrounded by landscaped French gardens.Alternatively, you can choose to stay on board and continue your journey down the river, sailing toward the charming town of Peso da Régua, where you'll arrive by mid-afternoon. Once ashore, immerse yourself in the rich heritage of the Douro Valley with a visit to the Douro Museum. Here, you'll explore captivating exhibits that bring the history of wine production to life, offering fascinating insights into the region's winemaking traditions and the storied past of port wine trading. This evening, we take the short drive to the 126-acre Quinta da Pacheca for dinner. It dates back to the 18th-century and is simply one of the most beautiful and distinguished properties in the region. It is also notable as being the first quinta – in 1738 – to bottle wine under the name of its owner, the aristocrat Mariana Pacheco Pereira. Here we'll stop for dinner accompanied by a selection of their wines, while enjoying dramatic views over the Douro.We are moored in Régua overnight.

Lamego
Programme
Lamego - This morning after breakfast we take a short drive to historic Lamego, home of Portugal’s sparkling wine, Raposeira, and one of the first places to be reclaimed from the Moors in the 12th century. Situated atop the hill overlooking this lovely town is the ancient Sanctuary of Our Lady of Remedies church, its stairways adorned with attractive azulejos, the country’s characteristic painted ceramic tiles.If you're up for a bit of a challenge, consider taking the 686 steps that lead from the top of the staircase down to the town below, offering incredible views of the city as you descend. Don’t worry if you need a break - along the way, you can pause to admire the beautiful fountains, intricate mosaics, and neatly trimmed hedges. As you explore this charming town, you'll encounter a rich mix of history and beauty, including an ancient Moorish castle, an exquisite Gothic cathedral, and elegant 18th-century villas that add to the town’s character. For a relaxing afternoon, stroll along the Avenida, the town's grand boulevard, where you can sip tea at one of the open-air cafés and test your bargaining skills at the lively market stalls. By the time we return to our ship, our chef and his team will be adding the finishing touches to another delicious lunch, ready to be served as we depart for our next destination.After lunch there’s the perfect opportunity to take to the sun deck to enjoy the kaleidoscope of Douro views – or perhaps a spot of reading in the lounge over a cup of tea. Tonight’s dinner is followed by a colourful performance of traditional Portuguese folk music by a local cultural group.

Programme
Porto - Head up to the sun deck to enjoy a coffee whilst chatting with newly-made friends as our ship makes a graceful arrival in Porto once more, passing under the city’s spectacular bridges. On arrival, we enjoy a guided tour of Porto. Strategically overlooking the Douro as it empties into the Atlantic, Portugal’s second largest city was originally a Roman town, but its wealth derived from its knowledge of the sea routes to India, with fortunes made from trading spices, silks and other fine goods. Our tour unveils some of its major and more surprising sights.  You have a couple of choices this morning.  Embark on a panoramic coach tour that showcases both the major landmarks and some of Porto’s more surprising and hidden gems. Along the way, there will be a stop to explore the exquisite cathedral and the iconic São Bento station, where you can admire the beautiful tile work.For those seeking a more active adventure, this walking tour of Porto offers an unforgettable experience. We first cross the bridge and explore the charming Ribeira district. From there, we head along Rua das Flores to São Bento station and finally the majestic cathedral. We then cross the top of the famous Luis I Bridge, taking in the sweeping vistas of the city to the Jardim do Morro in Vila Nova de Gaia, where you'll be rewarded with incredible views. We then make our way back to the ship, with the city's characteristic hills adding a bit of challenge to this scenic and immersive tour. Porto is of course synonymous with wonderful port wine and all the famous port producers are here, such as Cálem, Sandeman and Ferreira, so a visit here would not be complete without a tour of one of them. After lunch on board, you’ll learn about this fortified wine’s fascinating history and its close British connections. Port is made from grapes still pressed in the traditional way – by feet – then lovingly matured, sometimes for decades, before you can enjoy its subtle flavours. Of course, you’ll get the chance to sample various port styles at the end of our visit.You’ll have the rest of the afternoon to explore the truly fascinating city; so perhaps return to the terraced streets of the old town and wander the sloping maze of winding, cobbled alleyways, soaking up the atmosphere whilst stopping to admire the lovely architecture, soaring bell towers, fine baroque churches, golden rooftops and beautiful tiles of this slice of traditional Portugal. Stop for a drink in a cosy café and be tempted by an array of delicious cakes and pastries – perhaps sample a pastel de nata, the traditional Portuguese custard tart.This evening is the Chef’s Dinner, a truly memorable experience featuring exquisite regional specialities, expertly served by our restaurant staff under the supervision of the maître d’. Afterwards, perhaps settle into the lounge to chat into the evening and reflect on the splendours of the remarkable River Douro – over a glass of port, of course.

Day 1 of extension - Braga & Guimarães - Today we'll say goodbye to our first-class vessel in Porto and head to the religious capital of Portugal, Braga. This conservative city is known for its Seman Santa - or Holy Week - as well as its historic centre dominated by Baroque churches. Founded by the Romans, Braga still shows traces of the empire with the ruins of an extensive bathing complex dating back to the 2nd century.  We'll visit Braga Cathedral, Sé de Braga, the oldest cathedral in Portugal, whose construction began over 1,000 years ago. The original structure has been added to throughout the last millennia in a mixture of several architectural styles, including a stunning Baroque nave decorated with gold ornamentation.Later, we'll tour Guimarães, a UNESCO World Heritage site recognised for its unchanged architecture. There aren’t many cities that can claim they played foundational role in the history of their country, but Guimarães is a notable exception – it was the first capital of Portugal and the birthplace of its first king, King Afonso Henriques.  First, we visit the Paço do Duques de Bragançathe, the residence of the first Duke of Braganza in the 15th century. The palace has been restored to showcase its former glory, with displays of Flemish tapestries, medieval weapons, and an intricately decorated chapel with stained-glass windows.After some free time for lunch, our guide will show you further highlights of the town, which is dominated by an 11th-century castle - the birthplace of King Afonso. Close by is the Romanesque church, Igreja de São Miguel de Castelo, where the future king was baptized.  We return to Porto and check into our hotel, where we stay for three nights.

Here, we will delve into Portugal's cultural history through photographs taken both domestically and abroad, including vintage cameras that date back over a century. As we continue our walking tour, we'll stop at Clérigos Tower. Built between 1735 and 1748, this Baroque-style tower is the tallest campanile in Portugal. As you climb the 200 steps to the top of the tower, you pass 49 bells, forming a large carillon with an almost deafening ring. After reaching the top, you will be rewarded with stunning vistas of the city and river.  You can enjoy the rest of the day exploring Porto at your own pace. For those who love books, Livraria Lello is a must-visit destination. This library is renowned for its stunning beauty, featuring a 100-year-old art-nouveau structure adorned with neo-gothic details - it is as enchanting as the books it houses. You can also take a tram to visit the local beaches or stroll through the UNESCO-protected historic centre - the choice is yours.  Experience a delightful evening with an optional excursion to Herança Magna for a Fado night.

Sometimes known as the Venice of Portugal, it's home to a small network of canals traversed by moliceiros - colourful canal boats that were traditionally used for seaweed harvesting and are now a quirky way to see the city.There’s no better way to experience the city than by the water so we’ll take a trip along the canals, passing landmarks like the Capitania of the Port of Aveiro and the Aveiro Cultural and Congress Centre. Enjoy the picturesque scenery of the Canal das Pirâmides. During summer, it's adorned with hundreds of tiny white salt pyramids representing one of the defining features of the region.Legend has it a local nun, struggling to fast, is responsible for the creation of the Portuguese delicacy of ovos moles – so it’s imperative we get to enjoy a bite (or two) while we’re in Aveiro. And our Tour Manager will teach us all about the history and production of this delicious delicacy as we dig in.After some free time for you to explore further, we will return to Porto where you can spend the afternoon at leisure.

As you climb the 200 steps to the top of the tower, you pass 49 bells, forming a large carillon with an almost deafening ring. After reaching the top, you will be rewarded with stunning vistas of the city and river.  You can enjoy the rest of the day exploring Porto at your own pace. For those who love books, Livraria Lello is a must-visit destination. This library is renowned for its stunning beauty, featuring a 100-year-old art-nouveau structure adorned with neo-gothic details - it is as enchanting as the books it houses. You can also take a tram to visit the local beaches or stroll through the UNESCO-protected historic centre - the choice is yours.  Experience a delightful evening with an optional excursion to Herança Magna for a Fado night. Savour a traditional 3-course dinner paired with wine while immersing in the Portuguese culture through music and dance – this soulful music embodies the Portuguese expression of nostalgia and longing and is deemed a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage.Personalise your holiday -Folklore & Fado eveningPrice: £75.50pp (2025) & £83pp (2026)Experience a delightful evening with an optional excursion to Herança Magna for a Fado night.

Programme
Day 3 of extension - Aveiro - We'll travel a short distance away from Porto to Aveiro, a coastal city set along a lagoon. Sometimes known as the Venice of Portugal, it's home to a small network of canals traversed by moliceiros - colourful canal boats that were traditionally used for seaweed harvesting and are now a quirky way to see the city.There’s no better way to experience the city than by the water so we’ll take a trip along the canals, passing landmarks like the Capitania of the Port of Aveiro and the Aveiro Cultural and Congress Centre. Enjoy the picturesque scenery of the Canal das Pirâmides. During summer, it's adorned with hundreds of tiny white salt pyramids representing one of the defining features of the region.Legend has it a local nun, struggling to fast, is responsible for the creation of the Portuguese delicacy of ovos moles – so it’s imperative we get to enjoy a bite (or two) while we’re in Aveiro. And our Tour Manager will teach us all about the history and production of this delicious delicacy as we dig in.After some free time for you to explore further, we will return to Porto where you can spend the afternoon at leisure.

All the outside facing cabins on the MS Douro Elegance are finished to an exceptionally high standard with superior quality fittings in the most refined taste. Chic styling is evident throughout from the moment you open your beautifully polished hardwood door and step inside your luxury home for the next 7 nights; polished wooden furniture is complemented by fine fabrics, in warm, relaxing colours, uniquely designed and created for the Ms Douro Elegance whilst ‘hotel style’ twin beds with individual bedding which can be moved together or separated accordingly, will ensure a good night’s sleep in the finest crisp linens.

The sparkling marble bathrooms, beautifully designed, all feature shower with fully glazed screen, WC plus fluffy towels and bathroom cosmetics. The living area has two comfortable chairs and a table plus a small desk. All cabins enjoy the benefit of individually controlled air-conditioning, flat screen high-definition satellite TV, hairdryer, safe, telephone, and tea and coffee making facilities.

Best of all the Standard Cabins on the Upper Deck and Main (middle) Deck as well as the Deluxe and Superior Suites on the Upper Deck have full floor to ceiling windows which slide down halfway so you can watch the stunning river scenery drifting past without leaving the comfort of your cabin!

Stunning restaurant on the Main Deck serving buffet breakfast, buffet lunch and four-course dinner

We are a well-travelled collective - made up of our guests as well as our team. We'll admit it - we're obsessed with travel.

But that's not our only interest. We also love architecture, history, the arts, and gastronomy - everything that makes a culture unique. And we plan our itineraries to ensure we're catering to those interests. Perfecting every excursion to ensure you get the most out of your onshore adventures.

Most days are filled with full or half-day excursions. Whether that's a city tour, an introduction to a brand-new town or a more in-depth visit to a specific landmark or attraction. You'll see the very best of every destination. Not just the legendary locations, we'll uncover the top-secret local spots too.

World-famous landmarks

You'll get to experience some world-famous destinations in the company of our passionate local guides. Sites like the Benedictine Melk Abbey on the Danube, spectacular Pont du Gard on the Rhône, Keukenhof Gardens - the world's largest flower gardens - on the Dutch Waterways and Cologne with its cathedral, the largest Gothic church in Northern Europe.

A taste of your destination

Food has the uncanny ability to reveal the softer parts of the destination most tourists overlook. Recipes passed down through the generations slowly become ingrained within a culture, featuring fresh local produce and traditional cooking techniques. Our excursions often include delicious local produce perfected over centuries - sample cheese in Switzerland and chocolate in Germany (it's not a cruise for those watching their weight), wine tasting in the world-famous wine region of Burgundy and port in the port wine cellars of Porto.

For even more, why not choose one of our Gastronomy themed departures?

Authentic cultural experiences

Our river cruise itineraries deliver authentic and engaging moments to fully immerse you in the culture. You'll remember being seduced by the fiery passion of flamenco dancing after a cruise along the Douro. Hold on to that feeling of wonder you felt as you watch the glassblower creating the most beautiful vase out of a glowing mass. And tell the stories you heard during a Hungarian folklore show to your grandchildren at bedtime. The memory of these authentic cultural experiences will last a lifetime. 

Forward of the ship you will find the magnificent lounge and bar, the very heart of the ship, styled by a leading Portuguese designer and sumptuously furnished with elegant settees and comfortable armchairs; plump cushions in smart complementary fabric invite you to sink in and relax – your holiday starts here! 

Enjoy a freshly made cup of tea whilst soaking up the refined ambience, complemented by high quality fittings, thoughtfully positioned lamps, a thick wool carpet, beautifully polished hardwoods and fabulous fresh-cut flowers. A well-stocked bar with friendly professional staff taking delight in attending to your every wish in sampling local wines or preparing whatever takes your fancy completes the convivial scene. 

So just sit back and enjoy the stunning view from the magnificent panoramic windows as the ever-changing river scenery slips effortlessly by. When evening falls, the subdued lighting creates the most gentile ambience so unwind over a digestif or perhaps take a turn on the dance floor to the soothing tones of the resident musician. There really can be few holidays quite as relaxing as this! All three air-conditioned accommodation decks are connected by a lift for your convenience and an elegant wide staircase with gleaming handrail.

When the temperature rises you will feel the benefit of the fantastic outdoor swimming pool – a rarity on a river cruiser. For many though, just to lean against the ship’s rail and breathe in the invigorating river breeze whilst casting a relaxed eye over the fascinating scenes of life ashore or the wonderful river wildlife all around you, is what it’s all about; this is surely the perfect antidote to the stresses of modern life so let us take you on the cruise of your dreams!

Please note: there are no dedicated kids or teens facilities onboard.
