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?

We enjoyed the tour much. Our guide was kind, calm and friendly. The portwine tour and tasting at sandeman was nice, the boat trip too. Lunch was awesome, never had that much and that good food on an organized tour. the wine tasting was in a very nice location with an awesome view and a funny guide. we could sit there quite long to enjoy the wine and the scenery and chat with other guests of the tour. not like at other tours, where you only have some minutes before you have to leave. can highly recommend this tour.

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!!!

This was the highlight of our stay in Porto. Our guide/driver met us and we joined six others for the trip inland on the minibus stopping for coffee en route. We visited the Sandeman's winery and had a wonderful tour with a knowledgeable guide followed by a tasting. Then we drive on to a place for lunch where we could converse with our fellow travellers. Then we enjoyed an hour's boat trip on the Douro to enjoy the sights of this beautiful valley. After this, we visited another winery that was smaller and produced wine, olive oil (the best I have ever tasted), and honey. Then it was the drive home! It was an excellent day and our driver was lovely, kind, and unhurried. Thank you. Highly recommend this.

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.
