Great historical information

Jorge was a great guide. He knew so much about the history of Portugal. So much information was provided. He gave us lots of free time on our own to visit each location.

Very nice experience

My two friends and I had an amazing time on this day trip to the Douro Valley! Visiting two wineries and getting to try table wines and various port wines was very enjoyable. The views were amazing and our guide kept us punctual and on time from point to point. Our only critique is the listing says they will provide bottled water during the trip (we thought this meant during our car rides, but we only got water at the wineries and at lunch), and we ate lunch later than we anticipated (pick up at 8:15 and lunch was at 2-3pm). But overall it was a great experience! One of my friends is gluten free and we indicated this when we booked the reservation and they were able to accommodate her.

Perfect way to experience the Douro Valley!

Incredible experience! Fun, friendly tour guide provided pick up near our hotel. The ride was comfortable, and water was provided. The stops were AMAZING! The Douro Valley is one of the most beautiful places we've ever seen. The tastings and lunch were fantastic. The river cruise after the first stop was relaxing with plenty of great photo ops. We even bought a bottle of wine from our first stop to enjoy on the cruise. I highly recommend this trip!
