Porto, Portugal's vibrant and historic second city, captivates visitors with its unique blend of old-world charm and contemporary energy.

Peso da Régua, nestled along the banks of the majestic Douro River in Portugal, is a town steeped in viticultural heritage and natural beauty.

Encircled by terraced hillsides that produce some of the world’s best port – and some stellar table wines, too – pretty little Pinhão sits on a particularly lovely bend of the Rio Douro, about 25km upriver from Peso da Régua. Wineries and their competing signs dominate the scene. Even the delightful train station has azulejos (hand-painted tiles) depicting the grape harvest. The town itself, cute though it is, holds little of interest, but does makes a fine base for exploring the many surrounding vineyards.

Nestled in the rugged beauty of Portugal's Douro Valley, Pocinho is a tranquil village that captivates travellers with its breathtaking landscapes and deep cultural roots.

Launching in 2027, S.S. São Rafael will bring Uniworld’s signature boutique river cruising experience to Portugal’s enchanting Douro Valley. Sailing alongside the S.S.
