Amadeus Waterways has launched a brand new itinerary for 2008,
Cruising Portugal & Spain, aboard the MS Amadouro. Clients will
begin their journey in Lisbon, one of Europe’s most beautiful
cities, which lies on several hills along the River Tagus.
The cruise will explore the Douro River Valley, beginning with
Porto, the capital of North Portugal, which also gives its name to
one of the finest wines in the world Port wine.
The journey continues inland to visit the countryside of the
Tras-os-Montes Region (Behind the Mountain), with its unique
languages and customs that have been nurtured by a picturesque
location amongst the steep terraces that climb up and into the
mountains.
The tour continues into Spain with a visit to Salamanca, a
UNESCO World Heritage Site, located at the center of the Castilla y
Leon Region before returning to Portugal. Your clients will visit
the ancient and picturesque city of Lamego, before concluding their
voyage in historic Porto.
With Amadeus Waterways, your clients will discover the rich
history of Portugal and Spain while relaxing aboard the newest ship
cruising the Douro River. Clients can embark the ship, unpack, and
enjoy a glass of Port wine as they mingle with new friends in the
spacious lounge or up on the Sun Deck. They can take in the fresh
air as the ship sails past beautiful vineyards along the hillsides
of the Douro.
