Steam Train Ride in Portugal's Douro Valley. Hauled by broad gauge preserved steam loco 284T CP0186, we ride in vintage coaches from Peso de Regua to Tua via Pinhao. The loco dates from 1924, made by Henschel, with five contemporary 4 wheel coaches. En route we have some cheese and port, and are entertained by local musicians playing traditional music. Views from the train over the river Douro are fantastic. There are many vinyards full of grapes ready for harvest at their 'Quintas'. Regua is well served by trains from Porto, this trip is over rails normally used by service trains continuing up the valley to Pocinho. Unfortunately, all the narrow guage lines in the area have ceased working, but much of the trackwork is still in place in the stations, especially at Regua where there are some interesting formations of mixed gauge, which we see near the end of the video. The remaining track of the narrow gauge Corgo line curves in, and follows the broad gauge over the viaduct into the station. A diesel engine then collects the complete empty train and stables it in the sidings.
Part 1 of 4 of AmaWaterways Portugal and Spain European River Cruise that includes cruising through the beautiful Douro Valley on-board the just launched luxury ship AmaVida and seeing many other parts of Portugal by bus as documented by travel filmmaker Clint Denn.

Then the Casa De Mateus, in the Villa Real municipality, that is a splendid manor house that was declared Portuguese national monument in 1917.
The AmaCerto and Zambezi Queen, launched in 2012, are being followed in 2013 with the AmaVida on the Douro River in Portugal and AmaPrimra, which was inspired by classic ocean yachts and ill provide the most distinctive river cruise experience. A magnificent glass elevator is one of the unique design elements found onboard, as well as our exclusive "Twin Balconies." The beautifully-decorated and spacious accommodations range in size up to 350 sq. ft. Relax in a heated Sun Deck swimming pool with a "swim-up" bar; enjoy Chaîne des Rôtisseurs culinary creations in five dining venues.

Part 3 of 4 of AmaWaterways Portugal and Spain European River Cruise that includes cruising through the beautiful Douro Valley on-board the just launched luxury ship AmaVida and seeing many other parts of Portugal by bus as documented by travel filmmaker Clint Denn. This episode includes the southwest and historic Algarve region that takes in cities that contributed to the European maritime exploration of the undiscovered world in the early 1500s as Henry the Navigator, Vasco de Gama, Columbus, Magellan and many others successfully mapped the whole unknown world for the Europeans to explore and map.
In this segment Clint Denn tells about the various industries which dominate the Algarve region of Portugal such as timber, fishing, knitting, tourism and more. Portugal might be a small country, but it is historic and one the main exports that Clint Denn highlights is the Cork, the production of it after the famed monk winemaker Dom Perignon started using it for wine bottles and how it now produces much of the cork for the world. Also cattle, farming and timber industries are talked about in this AmaWaterways river cruise documentary.

Steam Train Ride in Portugal's Douro Valley. Hauled by broad gauge preserved steam loco 284T CP0186, we ride in vintage coaches from Peso de Regua to Tua via Pinhao. The loco dates from 1924, made by Henschel, with five contemporary 4 wheel coaches. En route we have some cheese and port, and are entertained by local musicians playing traditional music. Views from the train over the river Douro are fantastic. There are many vinyards full of grapes ready for harvest at their 'Quintas'. Regua is well served by trains from Porto, this trip is over rails normally used by service trains continuing up the valley to Pocinho. Unfortunately, all the narrow guage lines in the area have ceased working, but much of the trackwork is still in place in the stations, especially at Regua where there are some interesting formations of mixed gauge, which we see near the end of the video. The remaining track of the narrow gauge Corgo line curves in, and follows the broad gauge over the viaduct into the station. A diesel engine then collects the complete empty train and stables it in the sidings.

In this segment Clint Denn tells about the various industries which dominate the Algarve region of Portugal such as timber, fishing, knitting, tourism and more. Portugal might be a small country, but it is historic and one the main exports that Clint Denn highlights is the Cork, the production of it after the famed monk winemaker Dom Perignon started using it for wine bottles and how it now produces much of the cork for the world.
