Our driver and tour guide, Pedro, was really friendly, fun, and knowledgable. All the wineries we visited were delightful. The whole day was delightful. I definitely would highly recommend this day trip.

The Duoro Valley is lovely. The wine tours were informative and delicious. Our tour guide, Barheim, made it an even better trip. He was knowledgeable, fun and a very good driver. We felt well taken care of.

Took a small group tour led by George on Sept 3rd. He was a very good tour guide who shared a lot of information. He made sure everyone was comfortable and enjoyed the trip. The two wineries were a bit different but both equally good in their presentation. Lunch was in Pinhâo. It was a very good meal with three types of meats. Two types of wine were provided and a small glass of Porto. Dessert was delicious. The boat tour was a good break between wine tastings. The meal was top on my list of meals in Portugal. If you are planning a tour in Douro, George is a great choice.

Andrea was fantastic! Her English was great and she was incredibly friendly. She kept us on track in terms of timing so we were able to see a few more cute spots for photos. etc. Food was great and very authentic. Highly recommend!

Douro Valley was incredible. We spent the day visiting wineries, taking a cruise & making new friends. We couldn’t of asked for a more beautiful day. Brahim was our driver and guide. He was amazing every step of the trip. We had our 3 year old with us and she loved Brahim. They provided a car seat and were extremely attentive to our needs. I highly recommend him and the Oporto Road Trips.

This tour (went on Aug 7th) was absolutely amazing, and it wouldn’t have been the same without our tour guide Joāo! Joāo was amazingly kind, extremely knowledgeable and generous with his time. Not only did he provide us with exceptional services and care the entire day, he really made us feel welcomed and appreciated. Joāo also let us purchase an extra bottle of wine at our last tour and let us squeeze in a few more minutes knowing he would end up getting home a little more later than usual. Our group was thoroughly impressed with the service. Now for feedback on the wineries: Overall, the tours were really enjoyable. The views from the Doro Valley were absolutely stunning! The employees at both wineries took the time to explain their processes for making their wine and that was really fun too. Our only complaint was that we thought for the money paid to visit two wineries, the quantities of pours could have been a little more generous. One of the wineries supplied two bottles for our group of 6 to share which was a little underwhelming to say the least… we had to buy a third bottle and felt it could have been offered given the price of these tours. All in all, I would highly recommend this tour to anyone interested. We learned a lot, got to try some amazing wine and had the best tour guide we could ask for. Thanks again Joāo, we sincerely enjoyed meeting you! Jesse

We really enjoyed our day out with Oporto Road Trips. We were picked up from our hotel by our guide Francisco is a small air conditioned minibus. There were 8 people in total on the trip and the bus felt room enough for all of us. Francisco was great, so friendly but really knowledgeable too, giving us info about wine and the local area on our ride to the first vineyard and then on the trips in between. Both vineyards we visited were lovely, the hosts were great and the wine was lovely. The river cruise was really picturesque, you could be outdoors or indoors and it was a big boat with other trips but didn't feel crowded. The lunch was good too, a local restaurant set up for tours. I can't eat gluten and Francisco checked in with the kitchen confirming what I could and couldn't have. There was plenty of food, it was yummy and lots of wine too. We were dropped right back to our hotel after a nice relaxing trip back. Francisco could tell we all just needed to chill on the ride home and he let us get on with it. The whole day was great and we would highly recommend it!

Amazing tour. Incredible, breathtaking views everywhere! the 2 wineries was a great experience. Lunch was OK, if you like rustics and authentic food. Personnaly, the quantity of wines/porto was fine, and delicious. The only "OK" thing was the Douro boat tour, the app installed was poor and not useful at all. Enjoy the view instead.

Yesterday my husband I went on an amazing tour exploring the wineries of the Douro River region. We were so very fortunate to have Brahmin as our guide. He was an absolutely amazing guide, very respectful to all participants and very knowledgeable on the regions history. Our winery visits were fun and interesting and our lunch -Devine! Brahmin certainly made our trip. What an amazing young man. We highly recommend this tour! Gerard and Denise Higgins Australia
