    Great wine tour

    Daniel_V, May 2026
    Tour guide was excellent and her husband (the driver) was very helpful as well. Went to several wineries. Had a great lunch. Highly recommend!

    Wonderful way to explore the Douro Valley

    Tricia_M, Apr 2026
    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...

    Inara_Z, Apr 2026
    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.

    Brilliant tour of the Duoro

    Katie_P, Sep 2025
    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!

    Response from Host, Apr 2026

    Thank you Katie for your detailed and uplifting feedback! We're delighted you enjoyed the tour, visiting the exceptional sites of the Douro Valley and experiencing the rich cultural insights and exquisite local flavors. We truly appreciate your recommendation. Kind Regards, Andreia and Valdemar

    Delightful, Authentic Tour of the Douro!

    Jeffrey_F, Sep 2025
    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!

    Day trip with friends

    CWoods33, Apr 2025
    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

    Response from Host, Apr 2026

    Thank you for sharing your experience! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed the trip . Exploring lesser-known gems adds a unique touch. We appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you again. Kind Regards, Andreia and Valdemar

    Just the kindest guides with an insider view!

    Renee_Y, May 2024
    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.

    Great small tour of the Douro Valley

    Jessica_S, May 2024
    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!

    Response from Host, Apr 2026

    Thank you Jessica. for sharing your experience! We're glad you enjoyed the tour, and appreciated the arrangements. It’s wonderful to hear that the itinerary and hospitality left such a great impression. Kind Regards, Andreia and Valdemar

    Great guided tour in German

    Claudia_G, Jul 2025
    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.
