Fra Porto : Douro Valley, 1–2 vingårde, Farm Lunch & Cruise
Beskrivelse
Vores eventyr begynder med eksklusive besøg på et eller to charmerende, familiedrevne vingårde (Chose Regular Option for 1 vingård, og PREMIUM for 2) Her vil du blive mødt som en gammel ven og guidet gennem smagsprøver af prisvindende Ports og elegante Douro bordviner - hver snup fortæller sin egen historie om jord, sol og tradition. Når det er tid til frokost, vil vi samles omkring bordet for at dele et kærligt forberedt tre-retters måltid, fyldt med regionale smage og parret perfekt med lokale vine. Om eftermiddagen vil du dykke langs floden på en traditionel rabelo båd, ligesom købmænd engang gjorde, når de bærer fat fra Port til Porto. Den panoramiske udsigt - terrasserede vinmarker kaskade til kanten af vandet - vil tage vejret væk. Gennem hele dagen vil du rejse i komfort i vores klimaanlæg, guidet af en lidenskabelig lokal ekspert i en lille gruppe ved din side, det er ikke bare en tur - det er en intim rejse delt med nye venner.

Rejseplan
Vores rejse begynder på Rua Mouzinho da Silveira 34, hvor vi byder dig velkommen om bord på vores komfortable 9-sæders van, der er fuldt airconditionet for at holde dig kølig på varmere dage. Derfra tager vi af sted på en naturskøn 1,5-timers køretur fra Porto ind i hjertet af Douro-dalen, hvor din uforglemmelige oplevelse venter.
Stadig i charmerende Pinhão, vil vi træde om bord for en mild en times krydstogt langs Douro floden. Dette handler ikke om selve båden - det handler om den udsigt, du kun kan se fra vandet. Som vi drev roligt mellem bakkerne, vil du se dalen fra sin mest private vinkel, hvor endeløse terrasser af vinstokke kaskader mod floden. Dette er det landskab, der fik Douro sin status som UNESCOs verdensarv - tidløs, uberørt og uforglemmelig.
(BARE FOR DEM, DER VÆLGER PREMIUM-MULIGHEDEN) Efter en naturskøn 1,5-timers kørsel ankommer vi i hjertet af Douro-dalen til vores første stop - et eksklusivt besøg og smagning. Vi vælger at samarbejde med mindre, familiedrevne vingårde, hvor velkomsten er varmere, historierne er personlige, og vinene er lavet med hjertet. Her vil du forbinde direkte med producenten, få en sand følelse af Douros sjæl - langt fra den mere kommercielle atmosfære af større ejendomme.
Efter vores tid i Pinhão, vil vi følge den svingende vej til Peso da Régua - en charmerende by kun 30 minutter væk, men forbundet med Pinhão ved hvad mange kalder den smukkeste vej i Portugal, og en af de mest betagende i verden. National Road 222 drejer pænt langs floden Douro, afslører udsigt efter udsigt af solbeskinnede vinmarker og skinnende vand. Vores sidste vingård venter på os her. Under en kærligt forberedt frokost, vil hver ret blive parret med omhyggeligt udvalgte Douro vine, hvilket gør måltidet til en sand fejring af regionen. Efterfølgende vil vi vente på et kort besøg, der slutter på en sød note med en smag af en fin, gammel havn - det perfekte farvel til dalens rige smag og varm gæstfrihed.
Efter en smuk dag fyldt med fantastiske landskaber, rige smag og uforglemmelige vine, vil vi gøre vores vej tilbage til Porto på en afslappende 1,5 - timers kørsel. Vi forventer at ankomme til mødestedet omkring 17:00, men den nøjagtige tid kan variere afhængigt af trafik eller andre omstændigheder. Vi beder venligt om lidt fleksibilitet - trods alt har Douro en måde at få os til at forblive bare lidt længere.

Nuno was an incredible tour guide. Very knowledgeable about the science and history of the valley! Would recommend anyone to take the tour, and support these family businesses so that they can pass onto the next generation!
We attended the so called ," premium wine tour, with 2 wineries and lunch and river cruise. Our driver and guide Pedro was first class but that is where the "premium" First wine tour was good. At the next wine tour we had lunch.The food was mediocre. I was told before the tour that the main course choice would be fish or meat. It was only meat. 3 miniscule pieces of meat, with rice, potato crisps from a packet and tomato and onion salad. Hardly "premium." It was a very hot day. We went on a boat with no cover outside and if you went inside there were no windows that opened.All the other boats had coverage outside with windows that opened for the inside cabin, if there was one. THE WORST BOAT. Definitely not premium. Pedro said he did not know why they gave us this boat. Extremely disappointed given their rave reviews.
We had an absolutely wonderful time on this tour. Great hosts, excellent wine, an amazing backdrop, and a top guide! If you want to have an informative and relaxing time, we can only recommend Nuno as a guide!
Incredible day, well organized and good guide. What was missing a bit was a little more info and info from the farmers themselves, one was not even English speaking. On the plus side the rest with two cozy vineyards, a fantastic lunch, good wines and port. Nice with a little boat trip even if that was maybe a little over rejected
Small group tour of some lovely wineries. Great authentic Portuguese lunch, followed by a relaxing river cruise.
This was a wonderful guided tour. We traveled in a van as a family of 7 with our elderly mother and two young kids. We had Philip as our guide and he was patient and accommodating the entire time. We chose one winery to visit because we wanted a slower-paced experience of the Douro Valley and we were hoping to avoid the crowds. This trip surpassed our expectations and came away with a personalized experience. After the boat ride along the Douro River, he took us to a small family-owned vineyard where we met the lovely couple Taveira and Anita. We had Portuguese homestyle cooking in a 4 course meal, probably the best food we've had during our trip in Portugal. I usually don't drink, but their wine was so delicious, We tried the white, red, ruby, and tawny wine, all delicious. It's really unlike anything you can buy at any store and is organically made since it's produced locally and in small batches. Taveira makes wine because he just genuinely enjoys it. Ditch those unpersonalized group tours that take you to large commercialized wineries and opt for this one.
We had an incredible experience touring from Porto to the Douro Valley with Felipe. From the start, he was fantastic—friendly, knowledgeable, and effortlessly multilingual (Portuguese, English, and Spanish), which made the experience feel welcoming and accessible. The day was thoughtfully planned and truly authentic. We began with a beautiful boat tour along the Douro River, taking in the stunning scenery, before heading to a small, family-run vineyard and bed & breakfast—Casa da Quinta do Cabo. What made this experience special was how personal and genuine it felt. We were welcomed with a home-cooked lunch featuring locally sourced meats and cheeses, along with vegetables, olives, and olive oil all produced on the vineyard. Everything was fresh, simple, and delicious. We then sampled the family’s wines—red, white, and their port (vinho generoso)—and toured the cellar to learn about the winemaking process. Tasting their 20-year port was a highlight. Overall, this was much more than a typical tour—it was an opportunity to connect with the region, understand the wine-making tradition, and spend time with a local family. Felipe made the entire experience seamless and engaging. Highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Porto and looking for something authentic, educational, and memorable.
Great tour with excellent guide who was also the driver. Had 1 hr river cruise with visits to 2 wineries with lunch plus wine and port tastings. Highly recommend this company.
Best excursion that we have ever taken! We have taken wine tours in various countries, but this was by far the best that we have experienced-our driver/tour guide/Sommelier/entertainer was fabulous! he was entertaining from the very beginning of our tour, but gave us great knowledge of how white, red and rosé wine is processed as he comes from a long line of wine producers. we visited three unique wineries, each had something very special. I boat tour on the Douro River was also incredible.. Highly highly recommend!
Enjoyed the first winery - great to go to a small family vineyard and Patrick who hosted was excellent. Boat trip was nothing special but good to see the beautiful scenery. Second winery was a lunch stop which was nice with plenty of food and wine. Lacked any additional info about the vineyard which was a shame. Overall an enjoyable day with a driver who kept us entertained.
