Private tour - Fabulous way to explore Porto. - Because of a dock workers strike our scheduled stop in Porto on our cruise was canceled. Unlike others on our cruise, we had a lot of time in Lisbon (using it as our home base) to explore outside Lisboa. With a few adjustments and searches online I decided to add a full day private tour from Lisbon to Porto. We wanted to enjoy quality time in Porto, not just a quick stop. We are so glad that we found Duca. What a top notch way to travel. Our assigned driver, Filipe was full of knowledge and pride for Portugal and of course Porto. We learned so much about Porto, way beyond its association with Port wine. We were together for 14 hours and saw much of Porto and Gaia, as we learned the roles each of those cities play in Port production. We ate a traditional lunch in one of Filipe’s favorite traditional restaurants. And we walked and walked. It was so thorough and enjoyable. Thank you!

Exceptional and memorable experience with Marta! - We had a wonderful time with Marta in Porto! Marta was so kind, attentive and conscientious to our entire family and she went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable experience. She customized our trip and even made sure we could see the most beautiful bookstore in Portugal! And her recommendation for lunch was perfect! We will be back and we hope we can spend the day with Marta again. We highly recommend asking for her specifically if you choose this experience. You will, no doubt, be taken care of like a VIP!

A full day roundtrip by private transportation all you can experience in Porto from Lisbon-well worth the time and money - Filiipe Crespo is an excellent tour guide. Two of us first time to Portugal and have visited other cities- Lisbon, Fatima, Sintra, Cascais, Cabo de Roca so Porto was last itinerary on the list and decided to take a more "catered" tour-by private car. A comprehensive tour of Porto that lasted about 7 hours in Porto-walking tour, visit the food market, lunch, boat cruise, and port wine testing. This is a round trip tour from Lisbon to Porto. Each way is about 3 hours by car so 6 hours on the road. The Mercedes Benz 7-seater is comfortable. The total time was about 13 hours. Left hotel in Lisbon at 8 am and arrived back to hotel around 9 pm. it is a full agenda but well worth the money.

Trip from Lisbon to Porto - We recently used Daytrip to transfer from Lisbon to Porto. Our driver, Diogo, was punctual, the car was spotless and the whole experience was very enjoyable. Diogo was very knowledgeable and shared with us his tips for places to visit, even treated us to few local delicacies Fully recommended 😊 Eve

Reliable Company with Excellent Private Services - We arrived to Lisbon tired and decided to change our trip from Sintra to Porto. I came across DUCA on TripAdvisor and called Rui. He immediately accommodated my request at the last minute and organised a day trip to Porto for the next day. Our Guide and Driver Filipe was exceptional, with a good, clean vehicle and safe driving and also accommodating moving at our pace with a Teen and much younger Child. Our day trip consisted of the viewpoint, walking tour of Porto, Boat trip on the Douro River and a visit to the Cellars to try the famous Portuguese Port Wine from Douro Valley. We will always be grateful to Rui and Filipe for the wonderful memories at Porto I highly recommend DUCA if you are looking for excellent and reliable service, do not book anyone else!
