Amazing Day Trip - Must Do in Porto.
A day trip to remember from Porto and have recommended already to a few friends to try. A personalised experience from Cooltour Porto and our guide Phillip was well worth the price rather thab going with a larger tour operator with a "transactional" feel. Highly recommend Phillip/Cooltour Porto!

Most Authentic Tour Experience Ever!
From the beginning to end, this tour was exceptional and I highly recommend itāsuch a wonderful surprise to have it be so good! The two wineries we visited (wine/port) in the Douro were beautiful and authentic, and they gave us good insight into the local wine culture. Both were family run and we were the only people there, so the interaction and discussion were intimate. The fabulous lunch inside a history port producing hacienda was gorgeously authentic, meeting up with other small tours who were having just as good a time as we were. Our guide Andreia was very accomplished, with great knowledge of the wines and the history of the Valley, and had a lovely personality, making for a fantastic tour all around! Pickup was conveniently at our hotel in a minivan with full view windows and only 6 people total, including my parents of 80+ years old, who enjoyed it thoroughly. Highly recommend!

This was a fantastic experience, well organised and informative. Our guide Philip was excellent, shared lots of information and facilitated the group sharing together. He certainly knows a lot about pudding. Thanks for a great day Philip.
