Satiated from your tasting at Quinta do Bomfim, it's time for the next leg of your journey. Head back towards the train station, but instead of going inside, continue to the end of the road. You'll see a small path to your left. Follow this path, and it will lead you down to Pinhão Quay. Here, you'll find a flotilla of traditional Rabelo boats waiting to carry you along the majestic Douro.

As we walk, we're not just moving through space; we're moving through the history and culture of the Douro Valley. We're walking in the footsteps of the winemakers, the laborers, the merchants, and the countless others who have shaped this land and its traditions. As we approach the quay, take a moment to appreciate the serene beauty of the river, a constant companion on our journey through the Douro Valley.
