Best wine tour - Our guide, Hernan, was exceptional. His knowledgeable of the countryside along with his experience of making and producing wine was commendable. My knowledge of wine expanded tremendously at the end of this tour. He gave each guest on the tour individual attention and was diligent to include each of us into the conversation, as several of us were from different countries. We all made new friends and throughly enjoyed each others’ company. Definitely recommend this tour if you want to get away from the large tourist attractions and enjoy the culture.

Great time in Douro Valley - We went on a truly memorable tour of the Douro Valley with a boat ride and two wine tastings. The Douro Valley is incredible, even more beautiful than you might expect. The picturesque landscape, scenery, residents, and history are amazing. We had a wonderful and plentiful lunch with many traditional dishes. We toured two excellent wineries and learned so much about the wine making process and interesting history. Our guide Alex gave us some great insight into Portuguese wines, food, and culture. He helped to make this tour incredibly memorable. We highly recommend this tour and suggest you ask for Alex for a great experience.

Fabulous day at the Douro Valley - A very special day in the Douro Valley, we where picked up by Hernan with a big smile at 8.30am and drove in a very comfortable car to the valley, Hernan was fabulous and very informative, his knowledge in wine making and all sorts of grapes, as well he taught how to enjoy the wine to the fullest, he was absolutely fantastic, first we had a cruise on the Douro river we went to a small but very upscale, by the name Quinte Do Cume which we absolutely loved., They were very informative and the wine was very good, we where happy to hear that they are selling in Ontario Canada, We had a traditional delicious lunch and after that we went to another winery more established in the Douro Valley which made fantastic port wines and olive oil and Honey which we loved and perched, we wanted to buy port wine as well but we couldn’t as we are traveling all over Portugal. Overall amazing experience thank you Hernan.

MUST DO IN PORTO - This was our first time in Portugal and booked this tour last minute. We weren’t sure what to expect, as there are so many options to choose from. This tour far exceeded our expectations! Our tour guide, Alex was kind, friendly, and knowledgeable. The drive is lengthy, and winding, but speaking to Alex made it feel like you were traveling with an old friend. The boat cruise on the Douro River is lovely if selected (it’s important to note this is not a private boat, you are with a larger group than your group of 8) The wineries included in the tour were phenomenal. Each unique in their own style. We also stopped for lunch at a local restaurant for a traditional Portuguese lunch and it was so lovely. Tons of food options, water, wine, and espresso. The whole experience is a MUST DO, and I credit most of the fabulous experience to our guide Alex for being so engaging and knowledgeable.

A wonderful adventure in the Douro Valley! - We spent the most wonderful day with Violeta! She was so fun and knowledgeable, both about winemaking and the history of the region. We particularly enjoyed the first vineyard, Quinta do Cume. Its whites were simply out of this world. Overall, we highly recommend!

Best. Tour. Ever. - This fantastic tour far exceeded our expectations. Maria was brilliant in giving us a constant stream of great information all day. The wineries were perfect, and the small group (6) was the perfect size to enjoy it all. Two wineries, an amazing lunch, boat ride, and spectacular scenery resulted in a perfect day.
