This winery tour of the Douro Valley was MUCH better than expected. Our guide, Hugo, was very informative, caring, and navigated the tricky roads with ease. The whole experience was planned to provide education and enjoyment for all. We walked into a vineyard and learned about the grape vines and varieties, explored vintage grape stomping and processing rooms, and tasted amazing varieties. Lunch was prepared in the most beautiful and idyllic setting. You will not regret booking this tour. Thank you, Hugo! - Bob & Sandy

Everything was very well organized, from picking up at my accommodation to bringing it back. The port wine tasting in a beautiful ambience, lunch was delicious in a beautiful location. The previous boat trip showed us the wine-growing area in the form of a terrace. Finally we visited an organic winery.

We loved our tour. Our guide Tiago was great! He explained us many facts and curiosities about the region. The visit to the first wine yard was beautiful! The views were just stunning and the Porto wine delicious. Gorgeous and interesting at the same time. Lunch was great too, with a wonderful view. We didn’t like the last vineyard as much and my opinion this should be changed. There were no views or opportunity to walk through the vineyards. It was not interesting as the other one and guide from there wasn’t very knowledgeable. But overall the tour was great. I would just change the last vineyard.
