Nicely curated tour. Very seamless from point of interest to point of interest. The tours of the vineyard were informative and had time to enjoy the wines with great views. Our tour guide, João, was friendly and knowledgeable. We also had a great, authentic meal at small restaurant in a small nearby village.

The entire day was wonderful! Joaon was the perfect guide for our day. He made sure that all of us were happy from the food, to the vineyards, to boat ride and to taking memorable photos. All of the guides at the vineyards were both knowledgeable and entertaining. The absolute perfect combination. We enjoyed the food and the river cruise. Would gladly do it again!

Now, after the tour I know why it is a G tour: there is a guarantee that everything is just perfect balanced - the top wine cellars are selected, not rushing between the objectives, not a push to buy something, it will be your Wish! The meal was quality and enough with everything included (table wine also). The key element was Enough Time to see and enjoy all the spots and highlights of the UNESCO Douro Valley!!!

Our guide, Luis, was great! Was very knowledgeable and friendly. Tour included a perfect variety of activities. Thoroughly enjoyed the port & wine tasting and the selection of both a large and small winery. Although the small winery with delicious wine & olive oil tasting is more our speed, the large port winery was very interesting and gives you the option to taste additional ports by the glass. The lunch was plentiful and tasty. The boat cruise was scenic & relaxing. Gives you a different perspective of the vineyards and chaparral. Highly recommend this tour.

We loved our day with Luis. We chose the mini-van experience and our guide, Luis drove and narrated on the way. He was engaging, very patient (herding cats with picky needs) and humorous. We stopped at two wineries with amazing views. Each winery had a nice introduction to explain their history and processes, then we got to share a tasting (and we purchased...). The wineries began and ended the days, in between we had lunch and went on a very enjoyable boat ride on the Douro river. I 100% recommend this tour. I'm a pretty serious traveler and found it to be relaxing, enjoyable and incredibly scenic. A high point!

I had heard that the Douro valley tour was must see while in Portugal. They were right! If you plan to attend the tour, you have to use this company and ask for Carla, she was very knowledgeable about the area, its history and people and so much fun. Did I mention she is an amazing driver?

Loved our day in Douro valley! This was a fabulous tour and our guide, Joao, was fantastic. So thorough and patient with us. We saw two vineyards, tasted wine/port, enjoyed a river cruise, lunch and capped off with an olive oil tasting. Highly recommend !

Our guide Luis was very charming. Thoroughly enjoyed our tour. Tour guides at the various places very knowledgable and entertaining. However don’t really feel that the cruise added any value to the tour. Even if there was a need to have a guide talking it would have been more enjoyable had we at least been offered a glass of wine

Booked the tour day before online and booked vegetarian meal for lunch. Tour guide Brahim was very knowledgable and informative. always checking everyone was okay. Nice small number of 8 people. Both visits to Winery were good and lunch was exceptional they went out of there way to make sure I had enough vegetarian food. Overall a very good tour and guide made it even more enjoyable with his interaction with the group.
