A THREE-DAY PRIVATE IMMERSION IN PORTO AND THE DOURO VALLEY WITH TAYLOR'S PORT IN SUPPORT OF PORTO PROTOCOL

Perched above the historic city of Porto, overlooking the Douro River, Taylor’s Port is one of the most iconic names in the world of Port wine, with a legacy dating back to 1692. This exceptional three-day experience invites you to immerse yourself in the heritage, elegance, and innovation of the Douro Valley — while enjoying some of Portugal’s finest hospitality.

Day 1 – Porto
Your journey begins with a premium private visit and tasting at Taylor’s Visitor’s Centre in Vila Nova de Gaia, where you will explore the history, craftsmanship, and cellars of this legendary Port house.

In the evening, enjoy dinner at The Orangerie Restaurant at The Yeatman Hotel, where refined cuisine meets breathtaking views over Porto’s skyline.

You will then retire for an overnight stay at the award-winning The Yeatman Hotel, a luxury wine hotel renowned for its comfort, service, and panoramic terraces.

Day 2 – Douro Valley
Travel at your own pace into the heart of the Douro Valley for a guided visit to Croft’s Quinta da Roêda, one of the region’s most beautiful and historic estates. Discover the vineyard landscape, learn about Douro terroir, and taste wines surrounded by dramatic river vistas.

That evening, enjoy dinner and an overnight stay at The Vintage House Hotel, a five-star luxury retreat nestled on the banks of the Douro River in Pinhão — an idyllic setting at the heart of Port country.

Day 3 – World of Wine Experience
Return to Vila Nova de Gaia for a full immersion into the cultural district of World of Wine (WoW). You will receive a free pass granting access to its museums and experiences.

Savour lunch at The Golden Catch Restaurant, followed by a private chocolate and Port wine pairing at WoW — a delicious exploration of flavoured harmony.

Conclude this extraordinary journey by joining Adrian Bridge, CEO of the Fladgate Partnership, for dinner at a restaurant of your choice at the World of Wine.
