Hi Diogo

Welcome to the forum!

If I recall correctly, a restaurant near where I work has a version of a Douro map on the wall. I'll pop in next week and see if I can find out where they got it. Meanwhile, I trust you've already read the various threads here on the subject? Here. And here. And another one here.

Hey!
Thank you ;) I really appreciate.
Yes, i have already seen these topics, however, considering the respective dates, I am afraid that much of the information might be out of date.

Hi Diogo,

I own one of the Forrester maps produced by Isaac Oelgart and I suspect he has more of these available. You should drop him an email at isaacoelgart@gmail.com

I bought the boxed set plus a rolled copy of the large map which I had framed and now hangs on the wall in my living room. From memory I think Isaac only sells the rolled version as an addition to the boxed set.

Good luck!

Not as nice as the Forrester map, but more precise...
