    We can’t say enough good things about our experience walking through the beautiful Douro Valley with Antonio! Despite it being a cold and cloudy day, Antonio kept us smiling and in great spirits, as he shared his knowledge of the Douro Valley, as well as lots of personal and family anecdotes that made it such a special and memorable walk. We learned a lot, were lucky enough to catch some beautiful views and scenery despite the clouds, and walked away with full tummies after a generous and delicious picnic meal which included homemade food and goodies made by Antonio and his family. We loved how the picnic tied together so much of what we discussed and learned during our walk. Overall, we are so grateful for the experience and couldn’t have asked for anything more of Antonio. Thank you to Douro Walks, and we hope to be back in the Douro for another walk in the future!!

    Exceptional Tour

    Scott_J, Oct 2023
    This was one of my favorite tours I have taken in Portugal!!!....This is Not a Walk in the Vineyards it is a Hike! Make sure you have good Tennis/hiking shoes and 1 to 2 Liters of water!....You Hike to one of the best Scenic views in the Douro Valley! And then back down through Vineyards and even some Cork trees….Lunch was from Antonio’s kitchen and his family Vineyard’s including Port, Wine, Honey, Salad….Perhaps the Cheese and Sausage were from a Small market. Exceptional Tour!...Do this tour!....I can now Justify all the Nata’s I have eaten in Portugal!

    Our tour guide Antonio was amazing and the hiking tour was perfect. The views were stunning and the information Antonio provided was amazing. He shared a lot about local culture and his own families connections to the area. The picnic at the end was amazing and the food and wine were all prepared by his family. We would recommend doing a hiking tour with Antonio, you will not be disappointed!

    Must do! Amazing experience

    Excellent! Highly recommend this hike with Antonio. He’s very knowledgeable about the region and the wine making process, the scenery is so beautiful, and the picnic at the end is the best meal you’ll have during your stay!

    Thank you so much for coming! And, of course, you are welcome again!

    Awesome hike!

    We had a wonderful time with our guide Antonio! The hike we took was exhilarating and challenging, but we saw and learned so much about Douro, the land, and cultivating vines for wine. We also went to a small village at the top of the mountain that had a Quinta which produces wine and olive oil. The hike was challenging, but we’ll worth it. Bring water, hiking shoes and a walking stick if possible. Obrigado Antonio!

    Amazing Day in Douro Valley

    Matthew_C, Oct 2019
    Antonio met us at the Pinhao train station to begin our tour. We then went to a local coffee shop to cover our agenda. We pickup Silvia to begin our hike starting at Provesende which is a small town in the upper section of the Douro valley. Silvia proceeded to give us some history of this small town as we walked thru the streets and vineyards. We had many opportunities to take spectacular pictures. We trekked down to Douro trail to meet Antonio for a leisurely boat ride. Silvia provided us with port, almonds, dried figs and cookies to enjoy on the boat. Antonio gave us some history about Port and the vineyards. After boat ride, we had nice picnic lunch which included smoked meats, cheeses, breads and fresh fruits and vegetables. Also we had some great wine and Port from local shops and from Silvia's parents farm. Everything was delicious. This tour is a must if you are in the Douro Valley.

    Authentic experience
