Douro Three Winery Small Group Tour with Lunch and Tastings

Thank you so much, Dylan, for your wonderful review! We're delighted you chose our Three Winery Douro Valley Tour and had such a great day exploring the region with David. He'll be very happy to read your kind words. It's fantastic to know you appreciated the variety of the three smaller producers, from whites and reds to Port wines, as well as the traditional Portuguese lunch. Offering wine lovers a deeper and more diverse experience of the Douro Valley is exactly what we aim for with this tour. Thank you for your recommendation, and we hope to welcome you back soon for more unforgettable wine experiences in Porto, the Douro Valley and Portugal! — Gonçalo Castanho, Cooltour Oporto

Hi Kwokmun, thank you so much for taking the time to write such a detailed and thoughtful review. We're really pleased that you chose Cooltour Oporto specifically for our Three Winery Douro Valley Tour and, most importantly, that you had such a great day with José. He'll be very happy to read your kind words. It's also wonderful to hear how much you enjoyed Quinta Santa Eufémia and Dois Lagares, especially the opportunity to meet the people behind the wines and enjoy those more personal conversations. That's very much the kind of experience we want to create with this tour. We also completely understand your comments about the third winery, and we genuinely appreciate you sharing them. We try to make the three visits complementary, showing different producers and different approaches to winemaking in the Douro Valley. At the same time, we understand why this particular experience felt less personal after the first two visits. That personal and boutique character is important to us, so your feedback is something we'll certainly take into consideration. Thank you again for such a fair and constructive review. It means a lot to know that you would consider travelling with us again, and we'd love to welcome you back to discover another side of Porto, the Douro Valley and Portugal with us! — Gonçalo Castanho, Cooltour Oporto

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear you had such a great experience exploring the Douro Valley with us. It's fantastic to know you appreciated the diversity of the three wineries, their beautiful settings, and the different wines you tasted along the way. We're especially pleased that our Three Winery Tour was the right choice for you as a wine lover. Thank you for your recommendation, and we hope to welcome you back soon for more unforgettable wine experiences in Porto and Portugal! — Gonçalo Castanho, Cooltour Oporto

Thank you so much, Rob, for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear your group had such a fantastic and personal experience exploring the Douro Valley with us. It's especially rewarding to know that adapting the winery visits to your preference for drier wines made a difference. Visiting three smaller wineries, each with its own character, while keeping the day relaxed and unhurried is exactly the kind of experience we aim to provide. Thank you for making us one of the highlights of your time in Portugal and for your recommendation. We hope to welcome you all back soon for more unforgettable experiences in Porto and Portugal! — Gonçalo Castanho, Cooltour Oporto

Thank you very much for your thoughtful and understanding review. We're delighted to hear that, despite the change to your original itinerary, you still had a lovely day in the Douro Valley and especially enjoyed the company of your guide. We would also like to acknowledge your point regarding the difference between the tour you booked and the experience provided. During this period, two of the winery partners we normally work with for our Three Winery Tour were unavailable, and we therefore arranged for you to join our Douro Valley Tour with two winery visits and the river cruise instead. While the pricing of these two experiences is normally identical, it can vary depending on the booking platform and conditions available at the time. In your case, there was a difference, and we genuinely should have noticed and addressed it. We apologize for overlooking this. We're very grateful that you still enjoyed the experience and took the time to share such a fair review. If you return to Porto, or travel elsewhere in Portugal, please don't hesitate to contact us directly. We would be very happy to recognize this oversight and make it up to you on a future experience. Thank you again for your understanding, and we hope we'll have the opportunity to welcome you back to Portugal. — Gonçalo Castanho, Cooltour Oporto
