We had a lovely day with Luis. Loved the wine tasting and locations. Sour Valley is worth the visit and EFun was a great company to take you there!

Tour guide and driver were great. The tour itself was not as advertised - essentially running in reverse with our first stop being port and lunch before 11am. The “local” lunch spot was very touristy with a lot of tables set up ready for tour buses, and you are rushed in and out within 50 minutes. We were told we could buy drinks and snacks on the Douro boat tour but that wasn’t the case. The boat was a bit crowded - with a bunch of other tours piled onto the same boat. The two tasting experiences were generally good.
Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback with us. We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed the guide, driver, and the tasting experiences. At the same time, we’re truly sorry that some aspects of the tour did not meet your expectations. We take your comments about the schedule, lunch experience, and boat tour very seriously, as they help us improve the experience for future guests. Your observations will be passed on to our team and partners so that we can ensure better consistency and comfort moving forward. We appreciate you taking the time to let us know, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again for a smoother experience.
Visited small local wineries that offered delicious wine and lunch. Learned a lot about the Douro Valley and enjoyed chatting with all the folks involved. The views were incredible as well and worth the ride!

Luis and Alejandro did a really good job. Only problem was that lunch was served too early and drinking port at the first stop meant you didn't quite appreciate it as much as you should. Would much prefer to have done the tour the other way around. - start at the winery then the river cruise and finish with the food and port
Dear Lynley, Thank you very much for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear that Luís and Alejandro did a good job and that you appreciated their effort throughout the experience. At the same time, we truly value your comments regarding the order of the stops. We understand how the sequence of lunch, tastings, and the river cruise can influence the overall experience, and your suggestion to adjust the order is very helpful. We will certainly take your feedback into consideration as we continue to review and improve the flow of the tour. Thank you again for your honest review, and we hope to welcome you again with Luka Destinations in the future. Warm regards, Luka Destinations
Among the best-structured tours I have been on. Two wineries, including an excellent lunch, and a river cruise. Our guide, Luis, and our driver, Alejandro, were excellent. A great day.
