The Trip

The Trip

A trip that goes through the great Douro estates and the famous Valeira Waterfall where D. Antónia Ferreirinha and the famous Baron of Forrester were shipwrecked in 1861. This accident occurred when the Douro River was still a stormy and untamed river. The several dams built along the river in the 1960's transformed the Douro River into what it is today - one of the few navigable, calm, and extremely safe European Rivers.
