Lovely day and a great start to our Portuguese adventure!

We had a lovely day with Filipe on our small group tour to Braga and Guimaraįŗ½s. We appreciated his quick wit, great suggestions, knowledge of, and passion for the area. He was flexible with the schedule and we never felt rushed. Everything we saw was beautiful, and the multi-course lunch was delicious – a real cut above the usual group-tour fare! A standout was the bakery stop, where we got to try some truly unique pastries made with a local type of spaghetti squash. Delicioso!

A lovely day!

We had a great time on this tour! Our guide was personable--and a good driver on those winding roads! The wineries we visited were beautiful, as was the location for lunch. The boat ride was beautiful--I guess more information could have been shared, but we had fun and chatted with our group. We had what I thought were a generous number of wines to taste. I was with my two adult sons and we all enjoyed the day and seeing the beautiful (sorry if I've overused the word) Douro Valley!
