We had so much fun on our day long tour with our guide Juan. Excellent wine tastings at 2 gorgeous, smaller, family owned vineyards. Delicious lunch and a small group boat ride on the Douro River with amazing views of the surrounding terraced hills. Highly recommend this tour.

Rui is our guide and is very familiar with the region and its history. We enjoyed the trip very much.

It was a wonderful time! The only thing was that we couldn't sit on the front part of the boat because there were no side protectors and seats were soaked. If there were plastic-covered sides, people still could have gone to the front of the boat and taken pictures. Andre was our host and he's phenomenal! Lunch - amazing restaurant. Wine tastings were lovely; gracious hosts - very informative visits

Our tour guide/driver Joāo was phenomenal. The day started early at the meeting point, and continued to the first of two wineries. The white house wine was wonderful, and the main ingredient of the vegetable and fruit jams that were served with the wonderful bread, olive oil, olives and olive tapenade were the secret quiz we had to solve. (The tour provider checks for food allergies during the booking process). We did solve all three secret ingredients, and moved on to red wine, and finally headed for a nice Douro river boat trip. The tour continued through the stunning Douro Valley to the second winery of the day, which also provided homemade wines of all kinds for tasting, besides a full home cooked lunch in the traditional cast iron pot in the main kitchen fire place with salad. The desserts were great! The lunch ended with another wonderful surprise by our tour guide João. Make sure you get him as a guide when you book, he is wonderful. The trip concludes with the drive back to Porto.

Our guide Joao was very personable and helped our group get to know one another during the trip. He gave good explanations of grape cultivation and how the various wines are produced. Our wine tastings were good but after a while it was hard to distinguish one from another. I would have liked fewer tastings (or less wine per tasting). It was a rainy day so our boat cruise was not a good as it might have been. Overall a nice experience.
