A day with Alex in the Duoro Valley
We had an absolutely beautiful tour of the Duoro Valley with our guide Alex, who has an incredible knowledge of the area history, wines & olives. Our stops at two small wineries before & after the boat ride and lunch were so informative and the hosts were also fantastic. Pick up & drop off was painless, just be patient with the Porto traffic! Overall, great value for money especially if Alex is your tour guide for the day. Obrigado!

It’s more than just food tasting
We met our guide NuNu on time, was happy to see there was no other tourists in our group. We bounded right away. Since we just tour the Mercado do Bolhoa, we didn’t waste much time in there. But we did circle around and tried some samples. NuNu was very helpful, realized that my sister needed some items, he took us shopping on the way to next stop. The Frichies sandwich was interesting and he explained it do amusingly. The walks was delightful, he showed us some interesting site on the way. The succession tastings were just so amazing. When we need to leave to meet our family just arrived from airport, NuNu helped us is getting the best location to meet the Uber driver. We had a great time
