From Ancient Lakes to Zamora, there are countless regions where you can explore both wine and riversides to your heart's content.

If Europe is more your thing, the Duoro is a natural guide to the many varied wine regions of northern Iberia or go truly multinational, and follow the Danube's path through Austria, Croatia and Serbia.
