Embark on an extraordinary journey to the Douro Valley, a cherished World Heritage Site since 2001, where tradition and taste blend seamlessly in one of the globe’s most venerable wine-producing areas. Avant-Garde Community Travel Experiences invites you to dive into this storied region’s unmatched beauty and gastronomic excellence, renowned for its acclaimed Douro Wine, including the rare Green Wine and Port Wine, top-tier Olive Oil, and distinctive culinary marvels.
As we explore the stunning landscapes of the Douro Valley, prepare to be amazed by views that have stirred souls for centuries. Upon arrival, a feast for the senses awaits, introducing you to the valley’s edible treasures: rich almonds, freshly baked traditional bread, and honey, all expertly paired with the best Douro wines to delight your taste buds.
Our adventure continues to the historical Pinhão station, decorated with the iconic Portuguese blue and white tiles that tell the rich story of the Douro’s wine legacy. Here, you’re invited to deepen your connection with the region’s culture with an optional boat ride, offering a fresh perspective on this majestic valley.
Our day’s highlight is at a family-run winery, a custodian of winemaking tradition, where you’ll enjoy an exclusive lunch. Relish a variety of starters, choose between succulent meat or fish for the main course, vegan options also available, and indulge in a delightful dessert, each dish perfectly complemented by a selection of white, red, and port wines. The experience peaks with a Port wine tasting, a voyage through flavors and time, sampling various ages of this globally celebrated wine.
Our journey still includes visiting Amarante, the birthplace of green wine, offering one last tasting to cap off this journey of flavors and memories. We promise an experience and an immersion into the heart of the Douro Valley’s heritage, beauty, and culinary wonders. Join us for an experience that transcends the ordinary, where every moment is rich with history, and every flavor tells a story.

Ben –
This experience is truly amazing. We had Bruno as our tour guide and he was truly great. We were picked up directly at our airbnb which was extremely convenient, and then taken on an amazing drive to the heart of the Douro Valley. The places chosen by the team for us to visit are perfect in that they aren’t too touristy and slightly out of the way, but they also are made to accept tourists in a way that makes the experience very welcoming and comfortable. I thought the value was exceptional in terms of the amount of food and wine served, as well as the exceptional service of Bruno and the places we went to. The experience was truly very special and was made even better by Bruno. We had a very memorable day and I’d certainly recommend this exact tour to absolutely anyone!
