It was amazing tour, I enjoyed my trip enough. 한국인들 계신가요? 영어로 진행되지만 모국어가 영어가 아닌 사람들이 하는 영어라서 비교적 잘 들립니다. 영어가 아예 안되시는 분이 아니라면 도전해볼만한 것 같아요. 유일한 아시안이었는데도 와인 테이스팅 시간에 스몰톡 나누면서 마신 와인도 괜찮았고 포르투에 오래 머물면서 할거 없는데 크루즈 태워주고 왕복 교통에 와인 3잔 테이스팅이면 완전 가성비는 아니지만 나쁘지는 않은 것 같아요!!! 가이드 너무 친절했고 (이름은 모르겠지만 ㅜㅜ) 만족스러웠습니다.
A wonderful day out with an amazing tour guide Aldrin. Aldrin made this day with his patience, humor and attention to each guest. Our lovely bus driver Thor went over and above and allowed us to take pictures at the most stunning view point. Port tasting was delicious!
Beautiful drive — perfect length of time to still allow exploring of Porto
Very good tour. The voice was a great guide
love it, very nice personal and the wine was sooo good
A great day out with beautiful views and lovely wine/port. Diego was an amazing host with funny music choices, and Gabriel was a great driver, getting us safely along some difficult roads. A little more wine tasting/time in the vineyard would have been nice but no complaints for a half day tour and lovely guides!
Diego is the actual GOAT! Perfect mix of funny, informative, helpful, and genuinely kind. Despite some scary roads, Gabriel never made us feel unsafe. Truly an angel behind the wheel! I hate feeling super tourist-y when traveling, but this was honestly worth it for the vibes and the crew!
Gabriel and Diego were pleasant. Diego did a nice job pointing out items of interest. Nice way to visit Douro Valley in a few hours.
Diego and Gabriel were excellent and the tour was very interesting and informative. The valley is spectacular and well worth the visit.
Very nice tour with a scenic view of the douro valley and a visit to the vineyard. Our guide Diego and driver Gabriel got us to the places very quickly and made the trip memorable, thanks!
