Cliffs, gorges, eagles and more surprises await you on this cruise around Arribes del Douro, a unique natural enclave just a few kilometres away from Miranda de Douro.

Cruise Details

The tour will meet at the chosen time at the Douro International Biological Station pier, near Miranda de Douro. Here, we set off aboard the boat that will take us to viewpoints and waterfalls in this natural park.

Throughout the cruise, the crew will explain the canyon's geographical characteristics. We'll pass by the Líquenes Cliffs, the entry point to the national park, before heading to the "Otter Pond", introducing the area’s flora.

We will sail through the eagle and black stork territories, hoping to spot these distinctive birds.

The tour ends at Eagle Valley - a key viewpoint in the Arribes del Douro park. You will have the opportunity to take photographs from the boat's terrace as we return to the starting point.

After exploring the canyon for an hour and 15 minutes, we will return to land for a 30-minute tasting of Porto's wines, concluding an unforgettable day in the Arribes del Douro!
