A wonderful, relaxing day with amazing views of the Douro Valley. Maria was a great host and explained things during the drive as well as during our stops and tours. Nice, small producers for the wine and port tastings and a nice lunch. Fun stop in a very small town with a quirky bar. I highly recommend Maria and the tour company!

Really enjoyable Port and wine tasting trip in Douro River valley

Alex was a great tour guide and driver and we really enjoyed the wine, port and olive oil tastings, as well as the lunch at a local restaurant. The boat trip on the Douro River was a great way to see the different estates. He was very knowledgeable about the area as well as the port making process.

This tour was amazing!

I had a perfect day: our guide Celia was knowledgeable and professional, the vinyards we went to were beautiful and the products we tasted were all delicious. I really appreciated having information about the making process and that we visited smaller producers, much more personnalized visit! Lunch was also delicious. It was a wonderful day, I really recommend doing this tour!
