What a beautiful day we had! The weather was uncertain and a little cold but we could make all the stops without rain. And they were many stops all interesting with many explanations from Pedro who knows a lot. From Amarante and the visit of the center with a stop at a café to the visit at the palace of Mateus, what a beautiful place, along with a wine degustation of their own production, to the stop for lunch in a little village with a delicious meal with wine (a lot!) to a tour boat on the Douro, we had a marvelous experience. Of all the tours proposed for the Douro valley, I find myself so lucky to have picked the tour with Pedro! It’s a long day although very smooth (the wine helps!) but at the end you will understand better Porto wine industry and Potuguese culture. Thank you very very much Pedro for this wonderful experience.

Our tour with Pedro was wonderful. He was prompt, courteous, and charismatic. He was very knowledgeable, a longtime local with abundant facts and history to share about Portugal and all the places we visited. The views of the Douro Valley were stunning along the way. We had an excellent lunch and our fill of various wines and ports throughout the tour. The boat tour was a nice end to the day before driving back to Porto. The van was also spacious and comfortable. Can't say enough good things about the tour - would definitely recommend!

I highly recommend Pedro to guide you through an AMAZING day in the Duoro Valley. What sets him apart is that he genuinely cares about his clients. He has encyclopedic knowledge of wine and the Duoro Valley and will customize the tour to meet your particular needs and desires. And most important, he is extremely likeable and a joy to spend the day with!

I doubt that you can find any better English speaking tour guide than Pedro for an excellent day trip from Porto up through the Douro River valley. Despite the less than ideal weather, Pedro made our day fascinating and fun from beginning to end. He has an in depth knowledge of the river valley history, and his selection of stops was spot on. Food and wine (a lot!) were outstanding, transportation I comfortable and spacious. Pedro is an excellent driver and amazing guide. You won't be disappointed!

Sr. Cardoso gave us a phenomenal tour of the Douro Valley that, in retrospect, doesn't seem possible to have occurred in a single day. In our opinion, this is the best way to go, with a knowledgeable guide providing historical background information and knowing when and where to see the best sites and sights. His careful, thoughtful planning made the day comfortable and interesting for a small group with diverse needs. Muito obrigado Sr. Pedro, we had a wonderful time in your company.

Our visit to the Douro Valley with Pedro Cardoso was one of the best tours my husband and I have had. Pedro was outstanding. He made the complex history of Portugal interesting and comprehensible. The itinerary was excellent - the coffee break with pastries and cathedral visit in Amarante, the Mateus Palace visit, the wine tastings, the delicious lunch, the relaxing river cruise, and the clever pacing (we avoided the tour buses). After the tour Pedro sent us a souvenir map with photos he took of us in various locations. A wonderful memory to have of a special day. Thank you, Pedro!

Pedro was by far the most fantastic guide ever. He is passionate, knowledgeable, articulate and so much fun! He was so easy to listen to, and so responsive to all our questions. We talked about everything - of course all the sites we saw, but also about Portugal religion, economy, politics, family.
There were 4 of us on the tour and by the end of the day, the 5 of us hugged and kissed goodbye. Pedro took lots of pictures of us which he forwarded to us right away - wonderful memories/keepsakes. I’d give him 10 stars!

Piedro was an absolute fantastic guide and provided us two beautiful days of tours. The Douro valley tour was incredible. The views were breathtaking, the wine was divine, and the company (Piedro) was everything you can ask for in a guide. Thank you Piedro for providing us with memories we will not soon forget!!!
