Details About Regua

Destinations » River Cruises » European Rivers » Regua


Backed by the Serra do Marao mountains and overlooking the wide valley of the River Douro, the peaceful town of Peso da Regua is the official centre of the Port wine growing region. From here, barrels of wine were traditionally transported to Vila Nova de Gaia in the past using wooden sailing ships called rabelos. Today, the journey is made by road using specially-adapted tankers.

Activities

  • Regua is the center for Port wine production. Visit a local inn for wine tasting and a lecture on Port wine.
  • Relax for an evening at Solar da Rede, a beautifully restored 18th-century "pousada" manor house located high above the river.

Currency

The unit of currency in Regua is the Euro (€), made up of 100 cents.
