MS Infante Don Henrique is one of six CroisiEurope river vessels that sail on Portugal’s Douro. Sundeck has a swimming pool, sun loungers and armchairs. The panoramic lounge, with a bar and dance floor, is on the middle deck, and the dining room is on the main deck. Other onboard facilities include free wifi, a shop and an elevator.

CroisiEurope is proud of its French heritage, and meals onboard are inspired by French cuisine. Three-course lunches and dinners feature many of the country’s classic dishes. And with Alain Bohn, the company’s head chef, serving as an active member of Maîtres Cuisiniers de France you can expect the menu to be decidedly French. Lunches and dinners are set menus, and breakfast is buffet-style.
