Best wine tour ever - Diana was amazing. She took us to the most interesting wineries. One of the owners who gave the presentation could have been a stand up comic. There were five in our party and there were three people that we didn’t know. Diana was able to interact well with all of us and by the end of the day we all felt like friends. She took us to an out-of-the-way place for lunch, which was wonderful. She was also an excellent driver and I felt secure at all times. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Excellent Small Group Day Trip - This particular company is the one I would pick if you are at a loss of which to choose of the many companies, as it is small groups. We only had 6 in our group, and the experience was much more personal. We got to see a small town on the way to the wineries, we got to tour 2 wineries, 1 hour on the boat, and had lunch at a local spot in the valley (included). Our tour guide Pedro was excellent, very knowledgeable, but laid back, not over bearing, and fun. The schedule was also excellent - plenty of time in between activities where we did not feel rushed or like we were falling behind or stressed. Overall this was 10/10 experience. Visiting the wine country was one of our main "To-Do's" for visiting Portugal but we could never have picked the places we visited or executed it with such efficiency. Only thing to be aware of - It is a full day of activities, we were picked up at 8:00 and dropped off at 17:30. Lunch was included and we were back by dinner time, but be prepared for about an hour car ride out to wine country, a lot of in-and-out of the car while there, and an hour drive back at the end of the day. This was great for us as we were entertained the entire day, but it is a full day commitment for sure.

Wonderful experience - not to be missed! - We had our trip on 10th November, Luis was our guide and we instantly gelled well as a group. Luis was knowledgeable, a great driver (which helped with motion sickness) and good company. The journey is broken up well so you are not in the car for too long. And My favourite part of the tour was visiting the small family winemakers and learning about the process of winemaking. The wine tasting was great, however, do not expect to be led in the tasting. We also tasted their honey and olive oil - both of which we were sad we couldn’t bring home due to only having hand luggage. There were plenty of options provided for lunch, including salad, bread, rice dishes, meat and vegetarian options. A fantastic day, not to be missed.

Pedro is the best guide! - This was an amazing day trip to the Douro Valley! Our guide Pedro was not only incredibly knowledgeable about wine, Portuguese culture, but also made the entire day fun. We got to make some extra stops along the way because everyone was so punctual in the morning. Overall this is a great value for the amount of stops we took in a small group size of 6!
