Great day out in the Douro Valley. Tried plenty of wine and lunch was delicious. Would definitely recommend.

Good way to see and learn a lot in one day without driving yourself and coordinating everything. The group was a bit too large with 28 people but that explains the good price. Do not be shy during the tours. Ask questions and be sure to speak up if you feel the winery tour guides need to speak up or speak slower.

All was good - nice ride, good visits, boat was a nice change. But the boat was a very short ride and seriously I would have thought a glass of wine on the boat during a wine tour would have been a nice touch. NOTE: this is NOT like a wine tour in the US. The wineries did not even sell the ports and moscats that they had us try. Very odd. But it was worth the money, the food was plentiful and the wine tasting was fun.
