Great Experience - Anselmo was the perfect host! We tasked him with planning our day in the Douro Valley and we are so glad we did . His knowledge of the valley and his expertise in the wines of the region did not disappoint. The ‘scenic route’ was the perfect choice allowing for a quaint village coffee stop and he even surprised us with local pastries ! Thank you Amselmo for treating us to a wonderful day !

Highlight of our stay in Porto - Our guide was Luis and he went above and beyond to make our day a memorable experience. He checked in a few days before regarding pick up location and dietary requirements. Promptly arrived at the arranged time and was extremely welcoming. Clean comfortable car with plenty of room for our group of four. Excellent English great banter and very knowledgeable and passionate about Porto and the Douro Valley. The highlight of the day was our picnic lunch in a private room over looking the winery. Such a perfect day from start to finish. Thank you Luis for a awesome time

Excellent Day Trip From Porto - This was a lovely day out from Porto. There were no issues with being picked up from our hotel. Teresa is incredibly friendly and goes over and above to ensure you have an excellent experience in the Douro. It was our anniversary and she gave amazing recommendations for lunch spots. The winery tour and tasting was superb fun. The boat ride down the Douro was exceptionally beautiful. We cannot thank Teresa enough for such an excellent day and experience.

This was an unforgettable trip. We loved every minute of it. - Our guide, Luis, was fantastic & had a great deal of knowledge. As 4 adults in our 50’s (early), we would recommend this trip without hesitation.

Lovely day in the Douro valley! - Anselmo gave us a lovely day tour of the Doura Valley. About a 90 minute drive from Porto in a comfortable car, we then enjoyed about an hour (out and back) on a riverboat through the river valley of the wine region. Our guide gave us lots of interesting history and information. We then went to a lovely local winery to learn more about port and then went to a restaurant/hotel/winery for a beautiful lunch and more wine tasting. It was a very pleasant day and Anselmo was a fun and knowledgeable guide!

Amazing day in the Douro Valley! - We had an absolutely amazing experience touring the Douro Valley with our guide Orlando. We were picked up from our hotel, and we first went to the quaint and charming Pinhao, then took a river cruise and ate lunch. After that, we stopped in Provesende and toured the tiny village. We then had a wine tasting at Quinto do Beijo, followed by a trip to Amarante, where we saw the sights before eating again and heading back to Porto. Orlando was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. Every part of the tour was incredible. It was definitely the highlight of our trip, and I would highly recommend it!!

Lovely day in the Duoro - Our group of 4 enjoyed a lovely Day with Gustavo exploring the Duoro Valley. He was right on time picking us up in his new Mercedes wagon. He is an area native and knowledgeable on all points of Portugals history and wine making. Everywhere we went he had friends and colleagues that took good care of us. I believe he designed this day in the Duoro for all of the guides that offer the tour. Gustavo was fun and interesting and congenial spend a day touring this beautiful winemaking region. .

Excellent Tour with Anselmo - We had an amazing time with Anselmo, he was punctual, super polite, very knowledgeable about wine and history of the area. We told him we were foodies and took us to the most beautiful restaurant with an amazing view and food. He was the one giving the wine tastings and explanation of the different wines. Totally enjoyed his company and wonderful tour. Highly recommended!
