Douro Valley Wine Tasting, Lunch and Cruise

We loved this tour to the Douro Valley, especially the lunch at Quinta Do Lodeiro! The lunch in the beautiful home was the best food we had in Portugal! Sonya at the Quinta Do Lodeiro had a dry sense of humor but was a hoot! Our guide,Tanya, was fun and very informative! She is one of the best we have had! We also enjoyed the visit to Amarante even though it was raining a lot and the winery tasting and tour although it was a bit early before lunch. The boat tour was relaxing too.

Villa Escudero Tour with Kenji! :)

This experience was amazing, and my tour guide Kenji was the best! Please, if you ever decide to go on this request Kenji as your tour guide! Request him for all his tours! The Coconut Planation was beautiful and memorable. After a short ride with a water buffalo, we arrived at the museum which houses one of the largest personal collections of religious relics, artifacts from around the world, and taxidermy. Since it's a resort, there were also beautiful places by the pool to swim and lounge. The grounds and gardens were also beautiful. During the trip I also rode a bamboo raft and visited the waterfall restaurant! Definitely check out the waterfall restaurant that has amazing food and is a great place to take videos and pictures. After the lunch, there was a cultural showcase of traditional Filipino dances from around the regions, as well as a musical ensemble. I'm so grateful to Kenji and Yolo Travel for making this a memorable experience I won't forget, and I promise that they'll make it memorable and special for you as well.

Our group of four had a wonderful time & enjoyed every minute of our tour that exceeded our expectations. We were picked up from our meeting place on time. We had a very pleasant, excellent , entertaining ,& patient tour guide named Fernando who took our photos on the best locations of the Villa. He is a very good photographer as well. We also had an excellent driver that made sure we were safe. The lunch buffet that was included with the tour was sumptuous . We enjoyed the ride pulled by a carabao & the live serenading duo of Filipino songs as we traveled to the waterfalls . Thank you so much for the excellent service rendered. I highly recommend this tour to everyone.
