Explore the Douro Valley on an exclusive private wine tour designed for true wine lovers. Visit three distinctive wine estates and meet the passionate winemakers in an exclusive atmosphere.

Travel in comfort aboard a premium vehicle with your expert local guide, who will ensure a seamless and fully personalized experience throughout the day.

Begin your journey at a small, family-run winery that started producing its own wines 17 years ago, with a limited annual production of just 10,000 bottles. Here, you’ll taste up to six different wines — white, sparkling, rosĆ©, red, reserve, and port. Walk through the vineyards with the winemaker, discover the grape varieties and growing techniques, and follow the full process from harvest to vinification — even sampling wine directly from the barrels. Conclude your visit with a premium tasting paired with local delicacies.

Next, enjoy a one-of-a-kind experience at a private wine project, where you’ll share a homemade lunch paired with premium wines alongside the estate owners. This passionate couple, with over 30 years of experience, craft organic and experimental wines that express the Douro’s true character. Here, quality always comes before quantity. This intimate encounter offers a rare opportunity to see wine through the eyes of those who live and breathe it.

Finally, visit a historic, family-owned estate that embodies the Douro’s rich winemaking heritage. Dating back to the 18th century and now run by its fifth generation, this Quinta produces over 300,000 bottles each year. Enjoy a premium Port tasting, featuring a 10-year-old white port, single-harvest colheitas aged over 15 years, and, of course, a Vintage Port — the perfect finale to your immersive wine journey.

Every estate on this private Douro Valley wine tour has been carefully chosen for its authenticity, quality, and character — each one unique yet perfectly complementary. Should a winery be unavailable, it will be replaced with an equivalent experience of the same high standard.


Spoken Languages: Portuguese, English, Spanish, and French (by request).
