- brettwO4383WD0 contributionsA DAY OUT IN THE DOURO VALLEYWe had the best day out! Pedro, our guide was engaging, spoke several languages, and always translated for everybody. The Mercedes van was comfortable, and Pedro had a great sense of humour and was really knowledgeable. The vineyard visits were excellent, the sights breathtaking and the food and wine superb. We highly recommend the tour! Great fun!Written September 18, 2024

- matthewdA462KV0 contributionsGreat trip through the Douro valleyWe had a great time! Antonio was a fantastic guide, highly recommend! Fantastic wine, fantastic food, and fantastic views!Written September 18, 2024
- 872debbyl0 contributionsPerfect day trip to Douro RegionThe all day trip to the Douro valley was so awesome! Our driver Tiago was incredibly knowledgeable and drove our 8 person group in comfort (A/C Mercedes van) to Amarante-Kilowatt Taverna/D’Origem winery/ boat cruise on the Douro River ,finishing withLunch and port tastings in a beautiful village where Magellan was born, Sabrosa. I truly have nothing bad to say - book this trip even if you don’t drink for the beautiful scenery and learned experience of the Douro region.Written September 18, 2024
- samwisew20240 contributionsAn amazing experienceFirst off, a massive shout out to our guide Tiago!! He absolutely made the day with his knowledge of the various foods and wines on offer, the areas we explored and the history of Portugal as a nation. I went on the tour with an old pal from Aus and we made friends with the fabulous Irish couple on the way. Exploring the stunning scenery, eating the delicious local cuisine, and sampling a healthy about of the regions world class wines. There is no better way to experience the one of Portugals finest regions. Highly recommend to all!!Written September 17, 2024
- Excursion7321180 contributionsThis is a tour for all the senses.Our group of six had a wonderful tour of the Douro Valley with Pedro, who guided us through the day with his expert knowledge and keen sense of humor! He organized a seamless flow of events over many hours and miles that went off without a hitch! Thank you, Pedro! Highlights of the day included tasting wines while eating almonds and dipping bread into olive oil and then honey. Loved by many. Different to be sure! We found that each and every person that spoke to us at the various wineries was delightful and most eager to share their experiences and expertise. Lunch was delicious and served on a beautiful terrace in Sabrosa. There we learned how great it tastes to drink port wine and eat chocolate cake simultaneously! We also learned a great deal about the differences between tawny and ruby port. Then, at the picturesque and very old town of Amarante we experienced vinho verde with a tasty selection of curated ham and cheese at a charming little shop whose walls are covered by thousands of messages written by happy customers from all over the world. And, needless to say, the amazing views of the vineyards that surrounded us throughout the day were stunning! I've been on many guided tours over the years, and I can truly say that I now count this as one of my favorites!Written September 16, 2024

- jonwY141PJ0 contributionsA magical day in the Douro with TiagoFrom pick up to drop off at the end of the day this tour was an amazing experience. Tiago is a host with a unique ability to both inform about the Douro Valley but also get the group to know each other and create a better shared experience. Our group of 8 plus Tiago all felt like good friends by the end of the day. All 3 tastings were very good and in picturesque locations. There were stunning views of the valley and vineyards. The one hour boat ride was very relaxing and we were allowed and encouraged to bring wine from our tasting on board. It was an unexpected bonus that a vegan option for lunch was available for me. I came prepared with my own lunch but was happily surprised that I could save it for a dinner after the tour was over. It was such a special day that couldn’t have been as good without Tiago leading the way. He is a very outgoing, kind, and inclusive person without being overbearing and intrusive. If you can take this tour with him, you can be guaranteed to have many new friends and a life long memory afterward. As an extra bonus, 6 of the 8 members of our tour happened to run into each other at a wine bar in the evening after the tour. We were all marveling at the magical day we experienced together.Written September 16, 2024
- 796vivienh0 contributionsA true must do when Porto highly recommend!We did this tour today and our host / guide was Tiago Mendez. It was a true one-in-a-lifetime experience. From start to finish, the trip was wonderful communication with host was easy and we felt assured that all was going to go smoothly. The scenery is breathtaking, the wines wonderful the meal was superb in the most beautiful setting. Would not hesitate to recommend this tour to anybody. Must do when in Porto.Written September 15, 2024
- GlobeTrotting5426680 contributionsPerfect day in the Douro ValleyPedro was an excellent and pleasant guide. The 2 wineries were beautiful. Lunch at the 2nd winery was like a movie set and it was delicious. Beautiful property. Boat ride was ok. Half hour out and turn around. Amaranth was really lovely.Written September 14, 2024
- L8458GArobertag0 contributionsExceeded our expectations!The tour was amazing! We did many stops and tastings, beautiful places. Our tour guide was Antonio and he was the best tour guide we have ever had! He was very nice and explained everything. This tour definitely exceeded our expectations!

- JoHodg0 contributionsGreat experience in the Douro ValleyI had read many mixed reviews about day trips to the Duoro Valley but our day spent with Thiago was delightful. He was an excellent driver ( essential on the winding mountain roads!), a charming host and extremely knowledgeable about Portuguese history and winemaking. This was a great way to experience the beautiful Duoro region, taste local wines and have a great lunch. I would highly recommend.Written September 12, 2024
- ButtonsGo0 contributionsGreat time!We were batched with wonderful couples and had a grand time. Douro Valley has beautiful scenes and good wine and port to enjoy it with. Our guide, Tiago, made the experience even better by giving bits of information about the region, culture, lifestyle of the area, and most importantly, he drove us safely to and from wine tasting.Written September 11, 2024

If you are thinking of booking, we suggest careful consideration as to whether this experience would suit you (it was not really our style or what we expected, and we would not have booked had we known the full details/itinerary- see below), and whether you would gain better value for money elsewhere (we thought what we received was poor value for money, unfortunately).
We were collected promptly from our hotel at the advertised time, and the driving tour was tailored to what we had already seen in Porto (as there were only two of us). The short stop at Casa Portuguesa do Pastel de Bacalhau was entertaining. However, from the description on this site, we were expecting the night tour part of this trip to be more substantial than it was.
The restaurant we were taken to was Fado Português in Gaia; we were seated in the back room which had an excellent view across Porto. The food we received was homely and the atmosphere was very casual and friendly with groups of Portuguese people as well as people from a variety of nationalities. The Fado singing (with accompaniment including traditional double-stringed guitar) was enjoyable and we were able to watch two 10-minute live shows from our table.
Our driver returned just in time to return us to our hotel (we had been uncertain as to whether this would be the case and we had been just about to book a taxi).

Most enjoyable evening! Had a bit of difficulty finding the meeting location. Contacted Touch Tours who quickly connected us with Alex our Tour Guide. He was enthusiastic and provided us with a wonderful tour and commentary of Porto easily manoeuvring the tight roads. The Fado Show & Dinner was a real treat, felt very authentic. Amazing voices. Well worth including on your itinerary.

We had such a wonderful time with Tiago and at the restaurant! Our tour was amazing and the food and performance were incredible. We would highly recommend this tour! Tiago was so knowledgeable about the city and gave us so many great recommendations for the rest of our time in Porto. The staff at the restaurant were so kind and we all enjoyed our meals while listening to fado music in an intimate setting. It felt like our own private concert!

My group of 5 did the fado tour and dinner in April 2024. We had a GREAT time. Tiago was early to meet us and drove us through Porto along the coast showing us all the sites. He offered to let us stop and take photos too, which was great. He then dropped us off for our fado dinner. The musicians were MAGICAL. The dinner was so delicious. The server told us her favorites and we were not disappointed. Tiago picked us up promptly and showed us sites on the way back to our hotel. He was so knowledgeable about the sites he showed us and we felt very safe throughout. 10/10 recommend this tour experience and especially Tiago as your tour guide. Thank you!!!!

The night tour was very informative and cozy. Our guide, Alex, was knowledgeable and friendly and we enjoyed our time with him.
Afterwards, the traditional fado show was breathtaking, and the food exquisite. The restaurant staff was also very welcoming.
My wife and I had no complaints whatsoever about the whole experience.

Had a great time last night. Everything was as advertised and exceeded our expectations. Maximo picked us up from our hotel and provided us a wonderful tour before the show and dinner. He also provided excellent recommendations for local restaurants and things to do. The show and dinner were excellent. We were dropped off at our hotel afterwards and were very happy with our evening. Well worth it!

We are staying at the holiday inn express porto city centre…….we are planning to book this for October 25 so wondering if we would get picked up and dropped off at the hotel??
Written October 7, 2023
I know for sure they'll drop you back off at your hotel, but you might just need to make your way to the meeting point. From your hotel it's maybe a 15-20 min walk, less than a mile.
