Our Douro Valley tour and was definitely one of our trip highlights! Our Tour Guide Daniel was great; we loved both winery experiences which were different from each other and each unique and wonderful; and the boat tour with Bruno was so much fun and so beautiful. We would highly recommend this package!

Our guide, Roi, was great! Engaging, knowlegable, funny and informative. The 8 people in our group came together very well and enjoyed each other's company. The vinyards were beautiful, each in their own way - the first very posh and "corporate" with high style, the second a more rustic farm feel as expected from a family-owned vinyard in operstion for generations. the wine was delicious at both! Bruno and Kalil, the guides on the river cruise were hilarious - very friendly, open and fun - and who clearly love their region. A very good tour!

Me and my husband and a wonderful time on this experience to the Duoro Valley! Joao was our guide and driver and he was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and made sure our group was taken care of the entire day. Both of the vineyards we visited were great, especially the first one (it was absolutely gorgeous), and the river cruise was a relaxing way to see more views of the beautiful Duoro region. Highly recommend this tour and Joao!

We had a wonderful tour guide named Alex, who took excellent care of us! He was accommodating, kind, funny… And made the whole day extremely special. I would give this 10 stars out of five if I could. Highly, highly recommend this company for anyone who wants a special day in a Mercedes sprinter van to one of the most beautiful places in the world.

Everything worked perfectly from pick up to drop off. Loved Amarante - such a beautiful town. The Douro was gorgeous and our wineries both welcoming and informative. Lovely wines and very relaxing trip down the river. Our guide was great and an excellent driver

Experience the Douro Valley in a small group of just 8 guests, ensuring a more personal, relaxed tour with better access to guides, local hosts, and the region’s hidden gems.

Tour two distinct vineyards—one family-run and one renowned—each offering guided tastings of three local drinks and insights into traditional production methods.

Enjoy free time in the charming riverside town of Amarante, where you can stroll historic streets, admire the iconic bridge and church, and soak in the town’s laid-back atmosphere.

Glide along the Douro River on a 60-minute cruise, taking in panoramic vistas of terraced hills and picturesque villages.

Savor authentic Portuguese cuisine with a drinks-paired lunch at a family-run estate, surrounded by vineyard views.
