Douro Serenity
About the ship
Different to our purpose-built boutique ships, Douro Serenity is an existing built ship used exclusively by Saga, and this smaller ship is the ideal way to explore the Portuguese waterways.
Cruise the River Douro, passing wine-producing estates and vine-covered terraces, from the comfort of Douro Serenity, a ship that is reserved exclusively for our guests.
Along the way a variety of excursions provide the opportunity to stop and explore local towns, visit historic churches and sample delicious local produce.
Reserved exclusively for our guests
When you are not exploring on land, relax in the ship’s panoramic lounge or the Sun Deck, with its sun loungers and small open-air splash pool. The restaurant’s panoramic windows provide a scenic backdrop as you dine on four-course dinners, buffet-style breakfasts and lunches.
All-inclusive local drinks including selected wines at lunch and dinner, house-branded spirits with mixers, draught lager, and soft drinks are available throughout your cruise. Other facilities include a small gym, spa and shop. Plus, complimentary Wi-Fi around the ship means you can keep in touch with friends and family back home.
All 60 cabins are outward facing, and cabins on the upper and main decks have floor-to-ceiling windows which open to form French balconies. Cabins on the lower deck have smaller non-opening windows, located close to the ceiling. Every cabin is en-suite and equipped with facilities to make your stay as comfortable as possible.
