My husband and I had the most amazing time on our tour. It was truly the highlight of our trip in Portugal! We’re wine lovers visiting from California and were looking forward to tasting authentic port! Hugo was so kind and had a WEALTH of knowledge about everything regarding port wine, the Douro valley, how it’s produced, all while keeping us entertained with fun history facts. Hugo made us feel so comfortable and was able to break the ice amongst our now new friends who were on the tour with us. We were a small group of 7 and went to a beautiful winery off the beaten path avoiding all the tour buses and crowds. We had a relaxing boat ride on the river and got to enjoy more Port and after went to another winery where we had an authentic Portuguese meal with lots of appetizers and ENDLESS amounts of wine followed by desert and more port. The wine was flowing all day as well as the good vibes, highly highly recommend!!!

The views from the winery were amazing. The food at lunch was delicious. Marcelo did a phenomenal job guiding and hosting us.

Sarah was our tour guide and he was nothing but amazing! I recommend this tour 100%! She was an amazing driver who picked us up from central Porto and took us to a boat ride down the Douro Valley and 2 wineries (of which one served lunch)! Every time I looked at my glasses at lunch it was topped up! She also stopped at an amazing look out point for views and pictures! Thank you thank you so so much Sarah!!

So grateful to have found and booked this tour. Loved that it was smaller (only 8 people), and our whole group got to meet and connect throughout the wineries and beautiful views! Sergio was our tour guide and he was fantastic. So kind, engaging, fun, and knowledgeable as a local - truly made this experience unforgettable!

Taylor_W

Marcelo was an excellent tour guide - he was very knowledgeable about the region and took us to unique spots. The tour was so beautiful and Marcelo made it special!

Brooke_J

I had a great day on this tour and would highly recommend to anyone visiting Porto. There is much wine and port to be had, the lunch was the highlight of the day. The place was very special and unique and also served us delicious food. As a solo female traveller I enjoyed that the tour was a small group, it was worth paying a bit more for as it was a comfortable experience. Ricardo did a good job at facilitating the tour and giving us lots of information about the Douro Valley and local vineyards.
