Francisco was our driver and guide. He combined a thoroughly informative commentary with music appropriate to particular parts of the tour. The Douro Valley is spectacular, and he knew where to go for optimum enjoyment. We had some excellent wine, and food, and came away feeling it was time and money well spent. Thank you Francisco!

Tiago was an amazing tour guide - he was very informative about the local culture, Portugal’s history and a wealth of knowledge bringing our Douro Valley Tour to life. We toured 2 local family owned wineries, went on a boat ride and had an authentic lunch at a small, family owned restaurant in the heart a quaint, small town - all amazingly fun and memorable. Awesome day, amazing guide and truly a wonderful day!!!

What an amazing experience! Thiago was an absolutely fantastic guide. He was so knowledgeable and fun. His personal experience and his understanding of the history of Portuguese wine and food was unparalleled. Each stop was meaningful and well thought out. It was relaxing not to have to drive and to be entertained and educated along the way. We especially enjoyed the delicious authentic family style lunch. We loved everything about the tour and would highly recommend!

My wife and I had an absolute blast on our tour of Porto with Tania! Tania made us feel extremely welcome and comfortable the entire time. She took the time to show us around and gave amazing restaurant recommendations. She even dropped us off at a separate location we wanted to see in the city. We highly recommend going to Porto and booking a tour specifically with Tania! She is one of the best in the business!

We had an incredible day in the Douro Valley with Nuno as our guide. We brought our 3 year old and 11 month old and Nuno was so kind and helpful. He shared many pieces of valuable information and really took the time to help us get to experience the area. Each stop was lovely. After taking many full day tours across the world, I would highly recommend this tour and Nuno.

Tiago was an excellent guide. He was friendly, fun and was very knowledgeable about the Duoro Valley. He also gave us great recommendations for things to do and places to eat in Porto. Lunch was a fantastic experience in a quaint little village and we also loved the wine tasting experience. Fantastic trip that I highly recommend!

Even though it was raining non-stop for most of the day, we had a great time on this tour, in large part due to our great guide Tiago. He answered every one of our many questions, answered more we didn't know we had, and was fun and pleasant the whole time. He also did a great job taking care of one of the members of our party when they slipped and got a minor cut - definitely not part of the job description, but much appreciated.
The stops were great, especially lunch

From start to finish this well structured tour was an excellent introduction to the beautiful Douro valley. Our guide/driver, Joao, was very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and friendly. There wasn’t a part of the day that failed to impress - the stunning scenery, the wine tasting “breakfast” at the Quinta Seara d’Ordens vineyard, the boat trip along the Douro and the delicious traditional Portuguese lunch (with more wine!) in a quiet hillside village. Joao went out of his way to ensure that we got the most out of our day, adding in a visit to the picturesque town of Amarante on the way back to Porto.
I would highly recommend this tour!
