Portugal’s River of Gold
Enjoy this ten-day getaway, with 8 days spent cruising the Douro River on a path through Portugal and Spain. We also offer a two-day extension after the cruise’s initial conclusion, so that you don’t have to stop the good times rolling once they’ve started.
Enjoy scenic views during serene cruising, picturesque bridges, vineyards and rock formations are only some of the interesting sights you’ll pass during travel. While moored, get your adventurous spirit going with our variety of guided tours, taking you through several UNESCO World Heritage sites alongside many more options.
From visiting Gothic Cathedrals to shopping in Plaza Mayor, whatever your interests are, our team aboard Viking can guarantee that there will be something to knock your socks off during this once in a lifetime experience.

Portugal’s River of Gold Cruise Review
“I’ve always loved cruising with Viking, and this trip kept up its fabulous reputation as far as I’m concerned! With its usual jam-packed expeditions, conscientious staff members and luxury accommodation, I wasn’t let down during my travels down the Douro. I really enjoyed the optional all-day excursions offered, although I only chose to go on two. It’s amazing what proper planning can get done in a day. I had the best time.”
Joan Mailady, Chatsworth
Portugal’s River of Gold FAQ
Does the sun deck have a garden?
Unlike some of our other Viking Longships, the ships for this cruise in particular are complete with a pool rather than herb garden. We promise that it’s equally as peaceful.
How many days will be spent in Spain?
During the cruise duration of your holiday, only one night will be spent moored in Spain. Day 6 will be spent exploring Salamanca. However, if this isn’t enough for you there is an optional two-day extension to the holiday which will take you to both Braga, Portugal and Compostela, Spain.
What should I pack for my trip?
We recommend checking the weather forecast in weeks closest to your trip for an accurate weather prediction. However, you can never go wrong with holiday staples such as sunglasses and your camera.
