Douro Valley Tours from Porto

Know that the pick up location listed is not the exact spot. You have to go to the nearest tourist office (which should be the one you booked with) and they will point you to the bus you’re suppose to get on. They match the vehicle with how many are completing the activity. For us it was a bus not a mini van. The cruise is not personal to your group. It’s shared with other people that paid for their own seats. You have to buy the wine you desire at the time you’re at that specific winery otherwise purchase online if that’s offered. The experience over wall was lovely. I would recommend if it matches your budget.

Felipe was outstanding guide for From Porto Douro River Tour 9 hours. Knowledge expert professionally relevant to being a guide, safe efficient driver, personable, sense of humour. 9 of us in group was perfect size. Best ports, wines, lunch, 1 hour cruise on Douro River, best and different tasting olive oil tasting and honeys. Had the best wine ever not available in Canada but can purchase on site. Amazing products and informative education. In addition Felipe arranged for me to attend 1 hour Fado show in Porto before leaving for my restaurant dinner reservation. Thank you Felipe. We were all so grateful you were our guide.

I did a similar tour about a month ago and I thought it was pretty good but this one raised the bar. The guide was just amazing and full of information. She also had a great sense of humor. The winery's chosen where great and so beautiful. The lunch provided was family style at this restaurant above a fire station. There was plenty of food and wine and it was well presented.

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.

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.

I didn't really know what to expect from this tour, but it was so much better than I could have imagined! The tour was so amazing, our host, Violet, was so welcoming and warm and she made the tour a really great experience! She always made sure that we were all okay and accommodated all of us. Great day, even better wine and the knowledge given was well worth every penny! It's a must!

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 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.
