This 9-hour tour will show you the best of Douro, the first Portuguese wine region and UNESCO World Heritage Site. Learn about Douro and it's evolution all over centuries. Marvel at the sculpted landscape on the best viewpoints over the Douro Valley. Take a 1-hour river cruise, learn about the production of olive oil at a local producer property, visit two Port wine estates (wine tasting included) and enjoy the lunch at a typical portuguese restaurant.

We had a blast on our Douro wine tour! Pedro was a fantastic guide - answering all sorts of questions for us and sharing lots of fun facts along the way. Both wine stops were a great balance of education and tasting. Loved the mix of wines and ports. Food was good, and the boat tour was a great way to see the valley. Our group got along well - which really made the trip all that more fun. Overall would definitely recommend to anyone who visits Porto and wants a day trip to the Douro Valley.

Well worth doing this trip if you can. The region is stunning and our guide Tuna was superb with a great knowledge of the area. Both Wineries were really interesting and both different in their type and setting. We really enjoyed the day, a lovely typical Portuguese lunch, river trip and lovely scenery. Perfect!

Fabulous day-long trip with a great guide (Henrique). His knowledge, explanations, and navigating were great. Amazing scenery with spectacular vistas. Local lunch was typical Portuguese - pork, ham, and sausage with starches (potatoes, bread, rice). River cruise was relaxing and enjoyable.

Would totally recommend Oporto Road Trips.
We were lucky to have Diana as our guide for this small group tour. Knowledgeable and professional throughout.
The smaller group allowed us to visit smaller family owned wineries. Lunch was good and given another perspective, seeing the stunning Douro Valley from the river.

Sondra was awesome. Very knowledgeable and friendly. Enjoyed each of the wine tours very much and the chance to try different ports and wines. Group of 8 was perfect size. Boat for an hour was the ideal amount of time - not too long, but a chance to see the river from the water and get some wonderful photos.
Lunch was enjoyable with our other passengers; meal was okay.
