Guadiana River cruise with barbecue

4.5/5
34 reviews

As the natural border between Spain and Portugal, the River Guadiana cuts through areas of natural beauty. You'll navigate your way upriver from Vila Real de Santo António to Foz de Odeleite and Quinta do Rio, where you'll enjoy barbecue and live music.

Once you arrive at Vila Real de Santo António, you'll board the boat ready for a relaxing cruise up the Guadiana. Take a seat and enjoy the passing scenery and once we reach the timeless village Foz de Odeleite, we'll anchor up, and you can stroll around at your own pace. Back on board, we'll cruise a bit further to Quinta do Rio.

Here you'll have views over the river and village, and you'll even be able to cool down with a swim and a drink at the bar. We'll then serve up a barbecue lunch, complete with local wine and live music in the background. The rest of the afternoon is for relaxing on the sun terrace and cruising back downriver.

    It was probably the best TUI trip we have had. Esther the guide was so lovely and joined in with activities. The whole team were amazing and the patriotic singing was emotional. The food was tasty and plentiful as was the wine and the trip back down the river was great fun. The only slightly misleading thing was the mention of a bbq. There was no bbq however, the chicken tasted amazing

    This was a really great experience, I highly recommend this trip. The team that was with us took care of everyone and gave us an insight into the local culture. We were served great food, live music and a great atmosphere. The trip exceeded all expectations!

    Gids was kattig en gedroeg zich alsof wij kleuters waren, als je een vraag wilde stellen kreeg je een snauwde. Ook was er onduidelijkheid over de drankjes, deze zouden bij de maaltijd zijn inbegrepen, maar dat was alleen water en wijn. Wijn drinken we niet en het water kwam niet uit flessen en vertrouwden we niet.

    Utflykten gav allt som utlovades och lite till! Mycket god mat och dryck, vacker båttur, härlig stämning/underhållning samt en underhållande och kunnig guide (Esther)
