\u201cThe inspiration behind the riverboat\u2019s public areas is the Rene Lalique 1929 Pullman car \u2018Cote d\u2019Azur\u2019 operated by the Compagnie Internationale des Wagons-Lits. The river between R\u00e9gua and Barca d’ Alva is one of the more scenic parts of the cruise route.\u00a0 As Barca d’Alva is the last Portuguese town before the Spanish border,\u00a0 this section of the cruise is at the greatest distance from Porto.\u00a0 Along the route, the steep hills are covered in grape vines and there are several locks and dams, built to slow down the fast-running river.\u201d Jan Baumgartner<\/p>\n
