Loved this tour; our guide was fabulous, and we were lucky enough to be in such a amazing group of fellow travelers! The views were spectacular, and we loved learning more about the wine history in the area form both a larger facility and a smaller one. And of course, the wine was amazing. Great activity!

Really great experience, our tour guide was very friendly and knowledgable about the ports and wines we tasted and the Douro region we visited. We had a few opportunities to take scenic photos along some roadsides, at the vineyards and on the river boat. There are also opportunities to buy the merchandise that you try, which you are going to want to do!

Diego was a fantastic and thoughtful guide on a very hot day at the Duoro. Both winery experiences were exceptional with plenty of time to relax and enjoy the wines and other produce provided. Lunch was really authentic and delicious. We loved the feel of the small group and direct interactions with family winemakers.
