Day 1: Madrid - Ciudad rodrigo - Porto

Welcome to your tour with Europamundo!Early departure from Madrid to Castilla. We´ll begin with a brief stop at The Four Posts, a famous viewpoint offering magnificent views of the walls of Ávila. Near the border with Portugal, we´ll visit Ciudad Rodrigo to see its cathedral, ancient walls, and medieval streets. Continuing our journey towards Portugal, we´ll arrive in Porto, where we’ll take a 50-minute boat ride along the Douro River on a traditional Portuguese "Rabelo" to admire the city from the water while we drink a delicious Port wine. Afterwards, you’ll have free time. Note: If the number of passengers between Madrid and Porto is very small, this segment may be conducted by plane, in which case the stop in Ciudad Rodrigo will be canceled.

Here, we´ll embark on a glass-bottom boat trip along the Ría de Arousa, learning about mussel and oyster production. Enjoy wine and mussel tasting onboard.
