The guide Leopoldo kept the group interested throughout the journey, both on the route and in the wineries. His comprehensive knowledge impressed everyone. We all start timidly and end up, at the end of the day, completely relaxed. This was largely due to his personality, which at all times relaxed the group. It is worth the experience!!!
Amazing day with Andre. Small group, friendly wineries, generous tastings, great food. Grape Journeys is the tour provider to choose.
This was a wonderful wine tour! The first winery we stopped in was so charming, personal, family owned and completely authentic. The gentleman that owned the winery could not have been more extending,charming, pleasant, and informative.The food and wine were delicious! Our tour guide Michael was incredible!!!!! Informative, extending great driver! Took us to so many scenic spots, we also had a delicious lunch all included in the price of this tour. He took so many pictures of us. Honestly he really could not have been nicer and could not have done a better job. We were a family of six and every single one of us enjoyed it immensely! I could not recommend this tour enough.
We were met by our delightful guide Michael who was full of knowledge but was also fun and very attentive to everyone’s needs. The wineries we visited were very quaint and informative. The experiences were unique, one including sitting around a beautifully set table in the room where the family still stomps the grapes at harvest and the other included climbing in a barrel that stores wine. The scenic drive through the valley and boat ride down the Douro River were spectacular. Our family would highly recommend adding this to your Porto plans! Thank you so much Michael for a beautiful day. You truly shine at what you do!
We had a wonderful 11 hour tour of the Douro River wine region with Andre. The tour was semi-private and shared with 5 other guests who greatly enhanced the experience. The day was just as described with visits to two wine regions, lunch at a traditional restaurant in Pinhao and a Douro River boat cruise. The first winery visited turned out to be the ancestral home of Andre’s family for 400 years. The table setting for our wine tasting and appetizers was very inviting and elaborate. It made us feel special that so much effort had gone into preparing the table setting. Andre was a very knowledgeable sommelier and the two wine bottle opening demonstrations make for a very interesting show. The second winery visited also was hosted by a sommelier who was a member of the multigenerational family who owned and operated the winery. This was also a very intimate and educational experience. Overall a wonderful day with beautiful scenery, gracious hosts, many fine wines to taste and a fun educational experience.
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!
