Each winery offered a unique experience and the knowledgeable staff provided a wealth of information about port wine. We also learned fascinating details about the wine regions and their distinct characteristics and some historical insights from our guide. The cancelled boat tour due to the weather was perfectly compensated with extra wine. Overall, it was a wonderful way to conclude our trip in Porto.”

The tastings were delicious and the lunch was even better. Miguel was our tour guide and really took his time to explain the history of the wine making and interesting bits of information on the different towns we visited. His energy and humor is perfection! Thank you Miguel for the special day!!!”

Take a 50-minute rabelo boat ride to see Porto and Vila Nova de Gaia’s 6 bridges, with multilingual audio and great river views.

“The boat ride was lovely! I'm so glad we did this so we could see a lot of the city that we would have missed out on if we had stuck with just the walking we were doing. The only "issue" was that I originally booked a 11:30 boat, but when I arrived they said they're no longer doing tours on the half-hour, just the hour. They were able to rebook me easily but I wish that had been communicated before I arrived at the dock - it would have changed how I structured my morning and I might have been able to get on the 11am tour instead of…”

Porto to Douro Valley: two vineyard tastings, Pinhão Rabelo river cruise, and a Sabrosa winery lunch with wine and port.

“I wrote a longer review on tripadvisor, so I’ll keep this brief. The Douro valley is beautiful and its wines are great, so what really separates a fine tour from a great one are the people. This tour killed it in that respect. Zthe guides, Rita & Pedro, were great all day (not easy to do for what was basically a full workday), and the wineries we visited also had great people.”
