We had an amazing time with Joao on our tour. Everything was seamless. He was very fun, polite, professional and knowledgeable. He gave us plenty of time wherever we went. A gem!

We had an amazing day touring the Douro Valley with Joao. He was very knowledgeable, personable, and tailored our visit and tastings to our interests. I don’t hesitate to recommend this tour to anyone and everyone!

Alex_B

Our day with João was truly one of the best we’ve ever had. João was extremely friendly and knowledgeable, and the wineries and restaurant he selected for the tour were all fantastic and places I doubt we would have discovered otherwise. Really can’t recommend this private tour enough, you won’t regret it!

Our day with Joao was exceptional and I'd highly recommend the tour to anyone visiting the region. He's incredibly knowledgeable about the region, the wines, and the culture. Every place we visited was great and they treat you like family when you're visiting with Joao. Lunch was fantastic and the conversation even better. If you're thinking of a tour, this is the one you should be booking.

We had booked with another company who canceled 3 days before. I think it was lucky as we had the best day with Joao. He picked us up at our hotel (and brought us back). We visited 3 vineyards and had very private personal experiences at each one tasting reds, whites and ports. He was so very knowledgeable but also explained easily for those of us less wine knowledgeable! As a trained sommelier he would also be great for someone with lots of knowledge. Despite having a very nice lunch planned he was very flexible and accommodated our request for no lunch and no boat tour. It was a great day!

We have a wonderful experience on our private wine tour with Somm Tours Douro. Our tour guide/sommelier was Joao Koehler. He picked up my husband and I at the Torel 1884 Hotel in Porto. Joao was relaxed, friendly, spoke excellent English, and extremely knowledgeable of the Duoro Valley having grown up there. It was a beautiful drive from Porto to Pinhao. From there we took a lovely boat ride on the Douro River. Our boat guide, Barbara, explained what we seeing and the history of the area. After that, we tasted some magnificent port wines nearby. Joao knew people at the local wineries and they treated us like royalty. The afternoon was followed up by a spectacular lunch featuring some traditional Portuguese dishes. After lunch, we visited another winery on a hilltop with a fabulous view of the valley. After a perfect day, Joao drove us back to our hotel. We would absolutely highly recommend Sommtoursdouro.com. Be sure to ask for Joao. Many thanks for a very memorable experience. We will be back!

Extraordinary experience!! We had an amazing time in Douro Valley, the best in Portugal!! Joao is impressively knowable and a superb guide, off the charts!! We enjoyed learning and sight seeing was breathtaking. Loved this tour, totally recommend when in Portugal!!

What can I say...Joao was clearly best in class as a Sommelier. His knowledge was second to none, and we thoroughly enjoyed our day with him. We were a group of 7 33yo lads, on an annual reunion - our reunions are very important to all of us, and our trip with Joao certainly enhanced our trip to Porto! He went out of his way to take us to a local restaturant for lunch, on our request. It was fantastic! Thoroughly recommend Joao to anyone considering doing a trip up the Douro Valley to explore the wine region.
