It was a fantastic guided tour. Would recommended 10/10. My wife and I were between a few tours but chose this due to it being a small group. It was definitely the move to do it that way. We were in a van with 2 other couples and our tour guide was Rui. Rui was fantastic, very knowledgeable about various things, very funny and kind. If I did this again I would request Rui again.
It was amazing - best tour I ever did in Portugal. Please ask for Rui - he is very knowledgeable and made us smile the entire time. If you want to do a tour to Douro Valley, this is the only one!!!
We had a fantastic experience. Our guide Rui was full of knowledge. The wine and views were great. The hotel pick up was very convenient.
Excellent, great guide, wineries, lovely food and great value for money, can’t recommend enough
Rui is the best! He knows all scenic spots throughout Douro, and is a great driver. He also recommends great eating spots in Porto. I’d definitely spilt a bottle of Vinho Verde with him.
Rui was very fun and engaging, went out of his way (literally) to give us the best views he could offer. All the while keeping us entertained!
Amazing tour complete with a private boat ride and delicious lunch. Very small group of 8, so the tour felt intimate and personalized. There's a ton of vendors offering tours to Duomo valley, many with very similar itineraries, but this one was simply great. Yes, you pay a bit more to have a more exclusive tour, but being with the same 8 people all day made it so worth it. We arrived as strangers and by the end were exchanging numbers to swap photos from the day. It's worth the extra money.
It was a great deal, a great experience, and perfect amount of time. I was so glad that we did this excursion versus doing it ourselves via the train. Rui was amazing and made his experience perfecto.
We had the most incredible day exploring the Douro Valley with Rui! I went with two friends, and the entire experience was truly one of the highlights of our trip to Portugal. We visited four different locations throughout the day, and each stop was beautiful, unique, and gave us such a great introduction to the wines and culture of the region. Rui was absolutely fantastic—friendly, knowledgeable, engaging, and so much fun to spend the day with. He made everything feel relaxed and personal while still teaching us so much about the Douro Valley and Portugal. The scenery was breathtaking, the wine was amazing, and the whole day was incredibly well organized. If you are visiting Portugal, I cannot recommend this tour—and especially Rui—enough. It was the perfect combination of incredible wine, gorgeous views, and great company. We are still talking about how much fun we had. Absolutely a 10/10 experience!
Excellent experience! The tour made our trip even more enjoyable and unforgettable. Beautiful places, amazing landscapes and, of course, lots of good wines and delicious food! We had a bath in the Douro, as well as lots of food, drinks and special moments. The service at the restaurant was also excellent and left the experience even better. Thank you, David, for making this tour so wonderful and for providing a day that will surely stay in our memory!
