    Great day with an awesome guide

    We had a great day with our guide David. It was on our last day of a one week visit tomorrow Porto. On the evening before, we got contacted with the exact time when we will be collected, and when we stepped out of our Airbnb the next day, David was already there waiting for us. The tour was very well organized. We drove around 90 minutes with a modern, clean van and we never had the feeling of being rushed, with many opportunities to take a good photo in spectacular locations. We were the youngest participants with 3 Canadian pensioner couples, but we had a really good time together with lots of laughter. Prepare to drink a good amount of wine ;)! Each tasting also includes a guided tour of that location and there's the chance to buy stuff, but you are not pushed to do so, which we found very pleasant. Definitely one of the highlights of our visit to Porto and well worth the money, if you have the time I can only recommend this trip.

    The tour to Douro valley was lovely.

    The tour to Douro valley was lovely. The visit to Quinta do Tedo was very good. However the second winery Imagen was disappointing. There was no explanation on the wines produced, only a tour of the old olive oil museum, and tastings. Paulo, our guide was very pleasant but not knowledgeable enough in our opinion.

    Highlight of our trip to Porto!

    My niece and I wanted to see beyond the city and explore the countryside without driving ourselves, so we booked the vineyard tour. Our driver and tour guide, Diana, was awesome! She talked about our surroundings as we drove into the Douro Valley and about the history there of making wine and port. Her driving skills were perfect as we wound up and down hills and encountered hair-pin turns. She knew when and where we needed to be and explained everything including Portuguese customs. This really was the highlight of our Porto trip!
