The best Douro tour! - We had an amazing time with Rui - he was a knowledgable and entertaining guide. The highlight was the boat tour, but really everything was amazing. We also loved that it was a small tour (8 people) which meant it was really personalised. Would 10/10 recommend.

Gorgeous and delicious Duoro Valley Private Tour - This tour was fabulous! Ana Alves was our guide and she was so knowledgeable and fun. We enjoyed 2 different wineries with breathtaking views and a fantastic river cruise where we learned about the history of the region and winemaking. The food was wonderful-we had the opportunity to try local specialties and had a delicious home cooked lunch of duck rice. I would highly recommend this private tour if you want a great Duoro Valley experience!

A tour I want to visit again - Highly recommended!! It was truly a perfect tour. ANA ALVES was an excellent guide. The transportation was clean, and there was plenty of space. The convenience of direct pick-up and drop-off at the accommodation made it very comfortable. Unlike large bus tours, this small-group tour allowed us to enjoy a relaxed atmosphere. We visited two wineries, each with its own unique features. The explanations were friendly, and most importantly, the surrounding environment was incredibly beautiful. Lunch was excellent, and the boat tour was so enjoyable that time flew by. muito obrigada Ana👍🏻
