Great tour! Sarah was awesome - very friendly and made everyone comfortable right away. The Douro valley was gorgeous, unlike anything we’ve seen in previous travels. Getting to see the vineyards from the river and up on the highway was breathtaking.

It is a must tour when visiting Porto & area. I don’t think one can do this on their own, either.
Sara, our tour lady, was very engaged and excellent.

We travelled to Douro valley in a large comfortable coach, there was 30 in our group. Our guide Rita was brilliant, very funny.We visited 2 wineries with lots of samples of port given by another woman called Rita (also very funny and informative) Boat trip was lovely. I dropped one star for lunch, which was ok, a bit bland and very little wine, 2 bottles per table of ten worked out at 150 mls each. All in all, I thoroughly recommend this trip.

We had a wonderful time visiting the Douro Valley. We were part of a small group tour of 8 people. Our guide João was very knowledgeable about the history of the valley as well as Porto itself. He gave us a lot of information. We visited one winery where we tasted two wines and 3 different port wines. Then they gave us a special tasting of another port wine. We had bread, olive oil, olives and honey. We then went on the river cruise which was very beautiful but you see it all during the drive so it’s not anything more special. Then went for a wonderful lunch and had more port wine tastings. I really think this tour should be on the top of your list.

Sarah was a fantastic host! Great energy. Got a large group of people into a great mood. Scenery was beautiful. Wineries were a great choice. Lunch was wonderful.
Just wish the boat was smaller. Just with our group and not another bus. We weren’t able to sit outside and too many people to take pictures of riverside.
