Douro River Trips from Porto

This trip was the best thing we did visiting Porto. We learned so much from our guide, Nuno, the history of wine making going back to Roman days up until current days. Our visit to 2 wineries included a guided tour of the winery, wine tasting, and a very nice meal at one of the wineries. If you do anything, do this tour.

If you dont do this for any other reason, you do this for the scenery. I have been to Italy numerous times, and this is more magnificent. We went with a group that were not wine aficionados, but were glad they went, as the area and the history was the main event. Our guide Lola, was stellar!

The tour guide and driver were both very good, and the guide Ivor was very knowledgeable and made sure we got the best experience. The tasting at the vineyards was very informative and we purchased a few bottles. We had our grandchildren with us and they loved the river cruise. It was a most enjoyable day.

Guide Needs to be more interactive with the clients. Very little info and with the long bus ride he could have given lots of info on the area and Portugal. Never really ever knew what the next agenda was as he never gave a good overlay of what we were doing and time spent on each. Noticed a couple of the guides from other tours were very involved with their groups. Our guide acted like he didn't really wanted to be there.

This was one of the best tours I have done. Our guide Delfina was amazing and her knowledge and information she shared was invaluable. I would highly recommend this to anyone that would like to explore the Duoro river valley.. It is great value for money and gives you a great oversight of what this region has to offer.

We had a lovely trip out to the Douro Valley! Everything was well organised and ran smoothly- even in the rain! The food was amazing- best food of our trip! The port tasting was great and the setting in the valley is beautiful! Recommend this day trip to anyone who enjoys food and wine tours!

Ivo was the best! He is so informative and an overall awesome person! We felt really comfortable with him, and we just had the most amazing, beautiful day. I highly recommend this Boat tour/winery tour to anyone who will be in the area. Getting picked up from the hotel is also a fantastic plus!

Our guide, Iasmin, was very attentive, kind and sweet, and took care of the group at all times. Even though our bus had to be changed on our way to the vineyards, the process took around 5 minutes and it didn't delay us on our journey. The vineyards were both beautiful and the tour there was very informative. The tasting of the Porto wines was also very good. The boat part, however, was mediocre, more like a floating peak hour urban bus that went 3 km upstream and then returned. It was so packed we couldn't even move from the seats to take a picture. That part should be changed. Our group was over 30 people, too, but once we got to the boat it was like 5 groups joining the boat.
