Description of Experience

Discover Melgaço from a different perspective — not the mountains, but the Minho River Valley, where the border river and its ancient fishing grounds have shaped the landscape for centuries.

This is also the land of Alvarinho, an exceptional white wine, and of remarkable local flavours, including artisanal goat’s cheese, with a visit to a traditional cheese dairy included in the programme. Along the way, we explore the stories of smuggling and emigration — essential chapters for understanding the soul of this border territory

A day to savour, and to remember.
