Douro Valley is known as the best wine region of Portugal as well as one of the most beautiful areas of this country. For those reasons we obviously had to visit.
And even though the weather was not on our side by any means it was easy to tell what all the fuzz was about.
Douro Valley is marvellous, raw, dreamy and a haven for wine and the good life lovers.
Douro Valley has A LOT to offer so with only two days on our hands it's hard to know where to start. However there were two places we wanted to go.
Six Senses and Quinta da Pacheca. We did not regret it.

Pls Jon...it is not 'Duro' it is Douro ...-ou- sound in Portuguese is like: Ouuuuhhhhh...the way u say it means 'Hard' =Duro vs. 'Golden or made of gold' = Douro.

@@Alfablue227 if it is to explain, at least try to do it well, since when "Douro" means Golden. The origin of the word "Douro" is not yet certain, but "Douro" is not the same as "De Ouro" or "D'Ouro" so has nothing to do with golden. Just a short explanation to clean this misinterpretation. All the best guys

@@Portugal2100 Ohhhh boy ..are you being a smar Alec? Douro is a contraction of "De" "Ouro"...and that is: "Golden"! Diz-se de um objeto revestido de camada ou folha de ouro; Que tem a cor ou o brilho do ouro; brilhante. Aquele vaso seria muito mais bonito se fosse dourado. = Got it?

Guys, don't go to Douro during winter... try at maximum October. You will get golden red views of the vineyards and even the chance to see a real harvest! Another tip: the best scenario starts in Peso da Régua and goes up until Pinhão (or even further). Promise you won't regret. Just take a sunny day :D. Maybe next time you can do the cruise during spring or summer time. Love your videos! Be very welcome to Portugal!

Thank you for taking us along to Douro :) Too bad Dad wasn't feeling well :( Too bad about the rain, but the good news is at least the two of you can go back... and maybe you can plan it out in advance with getting some kind of subsidy/sponsorship. Show them how you growing. Send them some links to your awesomely edited videos... offer them some drone shots... I'm sure you might at least get a discount or two... no? Anyway, great video - Obrigada ~

We will be going back as soon as it makes sense :)! At this point though, we don't really need any sponsors and we love the freedom that comes with not having to say nice things about places we aren't 100% in love with. So when we are going to do a collaboration it will have to make 100% sense. Hopefully when we get a little bigger we can make collaborations with Six Senses and similar :-)

Hello. First of all i hope sincerely that your father recuperate fast as possible. Yes that´s truth our tourism and hotels and even the wine they gave a huge jump last decade. Well I expect the tourists can appear in Douro season and don´t go away as you shows us. But let me give you a tip: search for "Solares de Portugal" and you find a new kind of turism wich join the old Portugal with de modernity sophistication. There the taste is really portuguese. Now a good news for you: the rainy days end this week and the sun come back shining as usually not many times in north of the country mainly in the winter but that is another story. Please keep going like this i like very much to see you explore the best of Portugal. Até logo.

Its forbidden to use electronic equipments/smoking while putting diesel, gas, whatever. It's usually all over the place in signs. It's the law.

Most people even stop along the way for late breakfast or lunch, to try local cuisine.
