    Our tour guide was Valdeoraz Itelio and he was fantastic. Had plenty of wine, beautiful lunch, cruise through the valley, and stopped by a location for a beautiful view of Douro Valley. I would do it again and recommend it.

    The difference between a good and a bad tour depends almost entirely on the tour guide. We unfortunately got assigned to a guide that turned this tour into a transfer service. We did not know until after we’re already on our way that it is offered in both English and French, French tourists being the majority. Our guide was an older gentleman that spoke both languages, but he seemed much more fluent in French, as he spoke a lot more of it and delivered it in a much happier demeanor. When we started the tour the guide basically just said hi and sat down, and the driver drove. He never bothered to give an orientation or a summary for the rest of the day. After we got to the first stop, he told us the name of the place, and what time we need to get back on the bus. That was it. When we got closer to Duoro Valley he pointed out a few thing occasionally. When he did speak English he spoke in a monotone as if he was simply going through the requirement. Our last stop was the 1-hour River cruise and he didn’t come with us. As you can imagine it was a very quiet 1-hour and no one knew what to look at. We signed up for a tour with the expectation to learn the history and culture, and be entertained and enlightened by our guide. Unfortunately this tour turned out to be merely a transfer service with a guide whose only function was to shepherd us around making sure we don’t miss the bus. We were very disappointed and thought this tour was a waste of time and money.

    The tour was very interesting and fun. It was a perfect day to be spend driving in very comfortable 8 seats micro bus and listening to Paula, who was our tour guide. She is very knowledgeable and passion able about the country and the region of Porto. We received so much information about the places that we visited and got all the answers to our questions. We visited along the way very beautiful small town with the gorgeous church and after had very delicious lunch. I had fish and it was very delicious! Then we drove to Douro Valley and had 1 hour cruise along the Douro River. It was very picturesque and relaxing. At the end, we visited one winery with a tour and wine testing. One more thing that made my trip unforgettable, was our tour guide. Paula. Beside that she is incredible tour guide, she is a very nice and a kind person. I forgot my camera in the bus when we were dropped at our hotel. After a phone call to the Grey Line office, we agreed that next morning I will pick it up from the office where we bought the tour. But how surprised I was, when the same evening Paula brought my camera to the hotel! It was very kind of her and I was very happy and thanks full to have my camera back.

    <p>This was a great tour, and the guide was a lot of fun! We had a good group of people, who enjoyed each other's company as well. Douro was a beautiful area, and the vineyard tour was good, although it was very, very hot to be walking in the full sun that day! The boat ride was fun too, although it was crowded with other groups on the small boat, and as our group was the last to board, not everyone had a place to sit. Also, we thought beverages would be available for purchase on the boat, and they weren't - disappointing on a hot day. </p> <p>The roads were very curvy, and although our driver did a pretty good job, the others on the road were a bit scary. Possibly more patrol, which is beyond the control of any tour company would help. Overall, a great trip that I recommend!</p>

    What to expect

    Porto

    Starting from Porto, this tour will drive you to Amarante, our first stop. On your way to the Douro Region, your guide will give you insights regarding the Portuguese history, development and cultural facts of portuguese heritage.

    2

    Amarante

    Our first stop is in Amarante. All visitors will most certainly be impressed by two imposing natural features: the great Serra do Marão rising above the city in a series of majestic landscapes and the river Tâmega, the longest tributary of the river Douro, whose journey begins in Galicia and which flows through the heart of Amarante, giving added colour to the picturesque houses standing on its banks. In the thirteenth century, St Gonçalo, a Benedictine monk and popular saint, arrived in this area, where he eventually settled after completing a pilgrimage to Italy and Jerusalem, later becoming the city´s patron saint. He is accredited with the building of a sturdy bridge over the Tâmega on the same site as the current one. Amarante's sweets and cakes are extremely famous and easy to find in many of the region's cake-shops and cafés. Remember some of the names and make sure to taste them for yourself: papos de anjo, brisas do Tâmega, toucinho do céu, bolos de São Gonçalo, galhofas.
