A full day of experiencing the rich history of portuguese winemaking, seeing the expansive and gorgeous wine country, and tasting fresh and carefully made wine. The drive out from Porto was about an hour and a half BUT our tour guide Leo made the drive fun and engaging. Leo was very knowledgeable about wine and a lot of fun to be around.
Had a wonderful time as a family of 3 traveling with a 13 year old. Great wineries and we could not ask for a better guide than Leo!
We had an amazing time on this tour. It was a small group, just our group of 5 and one other couple. Andre was very knowledgeable about wines and the region and very engaging. We couldn't have asked for a better tour guide. First we visited an amazing small family vineyard, where we got to walk around the beautiful property and learned about the history of wine making. The wines were fabulous (and priced very well) and they offered meats, cheeses and other pairings. Then we had a delicious portuguese lunch before taking a boat tour of the area. The wines at the second winery were also very good and the tour guide was excellent. We even got to go inside of a wine barrel. Everyone agreed it was the highlight of our trip to Portugal.
If you want to truly experience the Douro Valley, this is the way to do it. André is so passionate about what he does and about the place he was born, and that passion makes this experience truly one of a kind. I don’t want to spoil all the surprises, but the personal touches and unique moments are something you simply won’t experience any other way. André was knowledgeable, funny, warm, and you can genuinely see how much he loves sharing his home and his story. This was an amazing experience and a highlight of our time in the Douro Valley!
This is by far the best tour ever! My second time doing it, once with my friend Christina and this time with my husband I had Andres the first time, and he was so knowledgeable, and fun. This time we had Michael, and he was just as good as Andres. The tour takes you to the Douro Valley to Andres' dad property, where you learn about the vineyards, olive trees and Kiwis. The property itself is the highlight of the tour. Seeing Adriano again (the father) was wonderful. We had a wine tasting in a most wonderful cave like setting, and served "Portugues Sushi" Then on to a great lunch in Pinhao, a boat tour, some sightseeing along the way and a finale at a Port vineyard. I will be back!
This is truly a day not to miss. Guides, sommeliers etc. were all superb. I hadn't expected to start the first wine tasting at 10 am, but it certainly gave us a great start to the day, leading to a fun climb into the barrel. Lunch was good, and the boat trip on the Douro beautiful. This was all a precursor to the grand finale with a wonderfully eccentric local producer. Many corks were removed, some with swords, others with red hot tongs. The host and guide were happy for us to stay and talk into the late afternoon. Truly a marvellous day.
Amazing and beautiful experience with gorgeous views and delicious lunch accompanied by excellent wine tasting on a beautiful family farm. Our guide Andre was more than amazing, courteous, polite, and very professional. We highly recommend this tour.
Leopoldo is so fantastic! We had the best time traversing from Porto to Douro Valley and around to a few Quintas. The wine and views were incredible. It’s a long day and well worth the time!
This tour went beyond our expectations! Michael, our guide and sommelier, provided a fabulous experience for our group of 6. He shared his knowledge of wine and wine production throughout the day in a way that was engaging and helpful to all. He kept the conversation open and lively, and welcomed all questions. The two vineyards that we went to were impressive family-owned and operated facilities. The warmth and appreciation shared from the proprietors was genuine and made us all feel so welcome. A unique aspect of this excursion is that one vineyard is in the Vino Verde area and the other in the Douro Valley. This offered a better contrast of the types of wines. It also gave our group a better understanding of the different grapes / wines and we all found wines that we enjoyed that we likely would not have tried ourselves. In addition, the food was tremendous!! The opening breakfast and the mid-day lunch were well thought and paired well with the wines we tasted (15 through the day). We enjoyed the boat ride to have a spectacular view from the river level to the surrounding region. I can’t say enough about how all members of our group were so impressed with all aspects of the day. If there is availability, you will want to pick this tour!! Many thanks again to Michael and the vineyard families who made our day so special!
Our tour guide Mikel was great. The Douro valley is breathtaking! He took us to 2 amazing wineries & a fabulous Portuguese lunch. He went above & beyond to make us all comfortable & it was a great day! I’d highly recommend this tour.
