Lisbon and the Heart of the Douro Cruise Review

“My Lisbon and the Heart of the Douro cruise was a fantastic journey from start to finish. I loved Lisbon and having free time to explore it further as well as exploring Jerónimos Monastery. I also really enjoyed the port wine tastings and the port wine cellar tour, it was such a blast getting to taste such iconic wines. My time onboard the ship was amazing, too. My cabin was pristine and incredibly comfortable and the dining options were phenomenal. This cruise absolutely blew me away and I’ll be sure to book again with Saga.”
