Steep slopes with fabulous wine terraces are typical of the Douro Valley and one of the reasons why it has UNESCO World Cultural Heritage status. On this cruise you will discover the beauty of Porto’s architecture and be enchanted by the wonderful medieval towns in the Portuguese hinterland.

Welcome on board our MS DOURO QUEEN. You are guaranteed the best views here! Relay on the sun deck and enjoy the magnificent landscape of the Douro valley with its terraced vineyards. The swimming pool on deck invites you to a refreshing cooling in-between. Comfort is a main issue on-board. The cabins furnished in style are even equipped with a private balcony with sitting accommodation on the upper deck. In the comfortable restaurant, enjoy the excellent cuisine typical for the country and international dishes as well as fine wines from the world-famous wine region.

The stylish restaurant offers sufficient space for all guests. On the day of boarding, you can reserve your table in the restaurant for the duration of the cruise. Let yourself be pampered by the friendly staff. The on-board kitchen offers tasty international and German dishes that are presented with passion.

Theme evenings, quiz events, bingo and live music ensure that there is no time for boredom on-board. Books, board and card games are also available.
