Thoroughly enjoyed our full day tour in the Douro Valley. We visited two small production family run quintas and learned a lot about wine production and the history of the valley. Our guide and driver were very knowledgeable and fluent in English. Highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to see and experience Douro.
This was an exceptional experience, excellent wine at diverse producers in the region with inspiring stories who were so generous with their time and sharing their knowledge. Andreia and Valdemar were so wonderful: knowledgeable, kind, and generous. We took the train from Porto in the morning to arrive at 925 in Regua and they were willing to pick us up from the station and adjust the schedule for the day. We really appreciated how they timed our visits at each stop to avoid large crowds, and we had a very intimate experience throughout the entire day. We are already planning a return to the region to experience more!

Fantastic day! Ándreia and her husband, Valdemere, were fantastic tour guides. Valdemere navigated the roads beautifully and Andreia was so passionate and knowledgeable about her country. Loved the small family wineries and the lunch was one of our best meals. Best tour we have been on in Portugal!

Excellent wine tour with beautiful scenery, great wines, and a relaxing boat trip. Our guide was fantastic and even surprised me with two Super Bock beers during the excursion, which was a nice touch! The entire experience was well-organized, enjoyable, and a great way to spend the day. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the area.

We had an incredible Douro Valley experience with Andreia and her husband. What made this tour so special was that they both grew up and live in the Douro Valley, so it felt like spending the day with locals who truly know and love the region. They took us to amazing family-owned vineyards that we never would have discovered on our own, and each stop felt authentic and personal rather than touristy. We loved hearing their stories, learning about the valley from people with deep roots here, and experiencing places that felt like hidden gems. The entire day was perfectly planned and was honestly one of the highlights of our time in Portugal. If you’re visiting the Douro Valley and want a genuine, unforgettable experience, this is the tour to book.

Wonderful experience! Andreia and Valdemar are great hosts; learning about and visiting the different small vineyards of the region was an absolute treat, and all of the sites offered something different. We opted for the 2 vineyards visit and a boat tour from Pinhão, but still had the opportunity to sample some port in the 3rd vineyard. A delicious local meal was had for lunch, which was the equal to any meal we've had so far in Portugal. Would recommend again, this was definitely my best day of the year so far!

We had a fabulous day with Andreia and Valdemar exploring the Douro Valley. It was lovely to be picked up straight from our hotel and enjoy a great day taking in the beauty of the region in the company of locals! Andreia was so knowledgeable about the area and the history. We had a delicious lunch and enjoyed tasting wine and port at local, family run wineries. We would not hesitate to recommend any tour with them!

We had a fantastic day with Andreia and Valdemar. Andreia was so informative and interesting. We felt relaxed for the whole day and didn't have to worry about anything. Andreia kindly took photos for us at every opportunity. Valdemar had cooled water ready to hand to us when we needed it. We had a lovely local Portuguese lunch with them both which was delicious. The 2 wineries were gorgeous and felt private and authentic. We lost sunglasses on the trip and they even went back to the winery and delivered them to our hotel before we left. We would love to come back and to another tour with them.

A brilliant tour of the Duoro valley. Andreia and Valdemar were great guides and couldn't do enough for us. It was good to get the perspective of locals, who had spent their lives in the region and could share so much knowledge. We went to some beautiful viewpoints, where we got the chance to enjoy the views of the river and valley. We visited two small family run Quintas where we learnt about the wine and porto production and had the chance to taste various tasty wines and ports. Lunch was in a local restaurant, where we got the chance to try many traditional local dishes (and some more wine). The tour ended with a boat trip from Pinhao and a visit to the lovely tiled station. Would highly recommend!

Andreia and Valdemar were amazing guides! As a local, Andreia is highly knowledgeable about the region and proud of her culture. We loved the personal touch she brought to the tour! The tastings were at small, family-owned quintas with excellent wine and passionate owners. We also had a delicious Portuguese lunch at a local restaurant. Along the way, we stopped at beautiful viewpoints, and we ended the day with a relaxing boat ride on the river. If you're looking for an authentic experiences in the Douro Valley, this is the tour for you!

Would highly recommend this trip. The hosts were very friendly, hospitable, and so knowledgeable on everything there is to know about the region. You will not be disappointed with the amount of food and wine that is included on this tour and you'll be taken to the lesser known vineyards, restaurants and view points, broken up nicely with an hour boat trip down the Douro River. Everything is included in the price and it's worth every penny

Andrea and Baldemar were knowledgeable, friendly, kind, and just altogether super guides. They picked us up at our Quinta. They had cold water all day long. Andrea was especially knowledgeable about the wine industry and its development in the Duoro River Valley. She also gave us several inside tips to help us through the rest of our time in this beautiful area of the world. A+, we are so grateful and we look forward to seeing them again on our next trip.

Andreia and Valdemar were fantastic hosts to the Douro Valley! It was so nice to have a small group and transportation around the region. We were a group of two couples, so four total. There was some driving so we are glad we did not have to drive. They were very knowledgeable about the region since they grew up and live here now. We visited a winery in the morning, scenic viewpoint, lunch with locals, another winery, and then finished with a boat ride and seeing the train station. They made sure we were comfortable and had cold water at all times. We are very happy we did this tour!

A very beautiful experience with a very interesting and engaged guide, along with her experienced driver husband (as the roads of the Douro can be complex to navigate!). This package is a nice mix of vineyard visits (one a bit commercial, and the other very family-oriented). There is also a small boat cruise (without service, but the guides graciously provided us with drinks and fresh fruit to support us during the 50 minutes that the cruise lasted). We were picked up at our accommodation and taken back to our accommodation at the end, which is frankly amazing considering that the day is very full, thus tiring. And finally, the lunch is beyond all expectations. We had lunch at a restaurant and the table was full of delicious and typical food. Thank you!

We were able to spend a great, interesting, informative and fun day that day thanks to Andreia and Valdemar. It was very interesting what we could learn about the Douro Valley and the wine and port.
The visit to the two wineries was very warm and also the lunch tasted very good, unfortunately was just a little too much.
Unfortunately we only spent two days in the valley, so this tour was ideal for us.
