This was a 10/10 experience for our family. I spent a lot of time researching different tours before our trip and landed on this one for the length of time and added reviews. I did this trip with my husband and my parents, one of which is very hard of hearing, and this was absolutely amazing for all four of us. We had a smaller tour with a total of 7 people including the guide. This allowed us to be in a van rather than a larger tour bus, which was perfect for us, with my dad being about 85% deaf. He could sit next to Tiago, our guide, in the van to ask questions and hear the tour. The Duoro valley was beautiful and we had a blast trying the wines and learning about the history. Having a smaller group was also great because it was more intimate, so we got to know the others on our tour as well. Tiago, our guide, was amazing. He spoke English very well, and he was a native to Porto, so he had tons of knowledge to share with us. His love for Portugal was commendable! Additionally, the smaller van helped with the drive down to the Duoro River, as it was a longer, windy road. I get motion sickness easily, and Tiago made sure we knew that he would stop if I needed air. Additionally, he knew the spots to stop for the best photos, one of which is attached. The lunch was great, the codfish and the chicken were both good options, and they do not short you on wine or port! I recommend this trip to any couple for family looking for a trip that doesn’t take all day. We would absolutely take the same tour again!

Book this tour!!! Juliana is the best guide & a half day is PERFECT! We departed at 8:30 & were back by 3:30. The Mercedes transportation is comfy & luxurious, Juliana was very informative, doing our tour in Portuguese & English. The boat ride was stunning & the winery we went to was incredible. What a fun way to see the Douro Valley without it taking up too much time! Would recommend to anyone. Our driver Lucas was awesome too!

We had a wonderful time on this tour with our toddler son and I can recommend this tour for families. Thiago is an energetic guide and Lucas made the trip smooth and safe with his driving - both are very kind. We appreciated that they contacted us the day before to arrange the type of car seat needed for our son, which was already nicely set up on arrival. The small group, chill pace of all the stops, and overall organization was great. Obrigada!

Excellent experience! From driving through the Douro Valley, to the boat cruise, and a three course lunch at a beautiful vineyard, Quinta do Lodeiro.. Everything was perfect! Our tour guide, Vitor (with Efun), was the best! He was extremely knowledgeable, fun and made sure we were comfortable at all times, especially during a 47° heatwave in the Valley. Highly recommend this trip, even for those who don't consume alcohol (like us)! 🙂

We’re so pleased you enjoyed the scenic drive through the Douro Valley, the river cruise, and the three-course winery lunch at Quinta do Lodeiro.

This tour exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend booking this tour, you absolutely won’t regret it and it’s a MUST when visiting Porto. Our tour guide was amazing, so knowledgeable, personable, and friendly. The lunch is at the home turned vineyard of Dono Antonia Ferreira the “Queen of the Douro” and the home was kept as it was in the 18th century. The vineyard is absolutely breathtaking as well as the boat ride where you see the Duoro valley
