Experiences
At Aldeia da Margarida, put your worries aside. We take care of everything you need to focus on you, your loved ones, and the best that the Douro has to offer, from wine tasting to walks along official hiking trails, or activities on the river, with kayak or SUP (Stand Up Paddle).
We organize the basket for unforgettable picnics, boat trips on the Douro or by jeep. If you are interested in Douro wines, we will prepare visits to typical vineyards and wineries from the demarcated Vinho Verde region.
It is an opportunity to discover and learn about other modern forms of life, distinctive because they are anchored and strongly rooted in ancestral traditions.
And don't worry if you don't know the difference between an Arinto, Avesso, Trajadura or Loureiro grape variety. Community sharing can be educational for everyone. And the proximity to the Arouca Geopark is another living proof of this, with its birthing stones and giant trilobites, and its 41 geosites that constitute a unique natural heritage, ideal for a trip as a couple or with the family.
We know the region like the back of our hands, the nearby river beaches, the best spots for those looking for tranquility or those who want to explore nature on a mountain bike.
At Aldeia da Margarida we also know that Cinfães do Douro has some of the most picturesque road cycling routes in the country. We take care of everything.
And if you prefer something more focused on rest, free yourself from the constraints of urban life and let us guide you to the best places to crown the day with yoga or meditation.
We organize your day at Passadiços do Paiva and, for those who want to open horizons, crossing the Arouca suspension bridge, Ponte 516 Arouca.
