About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Stefano K0 contributionsDouro Valley Wine TourSlimmy was one of the best guides we ever had, very personal and creative in mind. Good food, good tasting and good music. The timing however could be a bit better, but that was not the fault of the guide but the organization of the company and meetup point at Porto, even with pre-booking you need to stay in line and wait.Written October 11, 2024
- EvefromLondon0 contributionsDisappointing - could be improvedGorgeous scenery. Nice boat trip. Knowledgeable and friendly guide (Ricardo). Croft estate wines quite nice but a lack lustre wine tasting. Let down by a very disappointing, meagre lunch at the second vineyard - Favaios which was not until 2pm. Small bowl of soup, a small salad - between 4, one ball of cod and one slice of pork. Served with wine which is ÂŁ2:96 in the uk. Pretty undrinkable. A completely chaotic, earlier than expected start. Who wants to get to a day trip at 7.20 am to join a long queue to check in, having booked for 8:10? If you are expecting a classic wine tour you will be disappointed as this is a fortified wine tour with Port then Muschatel with some awful table wine at lunchtime.Written October 11, 2024
- 164mariannen0 contributionsBeautiful tour but too rushedThe Douro valley is beautiful ! We had fantastic views and a lovely boat trip. However, it was such a shame that we felt rushed along. We only had 20 minutes in the first village which was not enough time to explore. Just take photos and toilet and back in coach . Very frustrating. Then we had to wait at vineyard as they were not ready and were split into two groups with only one person to tell us about the wine which gelt rushed. We were also told off for talking whilst we waited ! Driver and guide both good. But the company is obviously trying to fit in too many tours and we paid a lot for this.Written October 10, 2024
- davidrQ8119PS0 contributionsHappy daysReally enjoyed this day trip, enjoyed the the scenery as we drove through duro valley on the way to our first wine tasting and our lunch. Unfortunately we couldn’t do the boat trip as the weather was awful in the morning but our guide Rita was full of energy and absolutely amazing and arranged another wine vineyard. It was a full day also the weather improved in the afternoon good day out. Rita was one the best guides we have ever had.Written October 10, 2024
- 89meaghanr0 contributionsBest day of our trip by far!!Lello and Tiago made our day absolutely perfect - Tiagos driving made us feel very safe on the beautiful winding roads (we were very impressed, no wonder he has won awards for his driving! Lello was equally as amazing - knowledgable, funny and friendly. We got to know him over the day and had a lot of fun. He took time at the end of the tour to give each guess personalised recommendations from a local, very nice touch. They also played fun music on the bus to keep us entertained - including some fado! A beautiful day, a must-see for anyone visiting portoWritten October 10, 2024

Amazing driver on these very narrow roads. Amazing places to see and a fantastic 3 course lunch with the most amazing viewsWritten October 10, 2024
- Inspire675290169620 contributionsNice tour with little timeThe drive with Jonas was very smooth. We have learnt a lot of interesting facts from Bernardo in the bus. He was a very pleasant guide. The Costa Nova has a beautiful beach. We would go for a full day trip if we were to go again, since it would be nice to have more time on the beach and in town. The boat trip was ok, but not too educative and we did not appreciate the silly jokes.Written October 10, 2024

We booked the tour in advance. Antonio Bras, our guide was right on time to pick us up from the hotel. Along the way he shared interesting facts of the region both in English and Spanish.
During the tour we got two Port tastings. Both where very enjoyable. In the first, the vineyard's guide explained of the way Port wines are produced, and in the second we got an explanation about the the way the vines are raised.
Antonio, our guide was happy to answer further questions that I had, and even sent me some recommendations of good brands of Port wine and good places to buy them.
All in all it was a very good day and I would highly recommend taking it.

We enjoyed the Douro Premium Tour today. Luis was our host and he was excellent from the time he met us in our hotel lobby, in a newish Mercedes van, until he dropped us off. There was one other couple in the van and we each had a row to ourselves. The highlight was the tour, tasting and 1st class lunch at Val Moreira. We also enjoyed the boat ride after lunch. We strongly recommend the premium tour for a personalized experience.

The Douro Valley private tour was spectacular in every stop led by Mariana Antonio, who provided relevant historical context, knowledge of the art and science of wine making, and good humor along the way. The wine estates and river cruise at the end of the tour left us with an enjoyable experience like no other! Two thumbs up!

The first vineyard we visited had a stunning setting with a wisteria clad terrace overlooking the valley. Simply breathtaking! The port was delicious too! The boat trip was lovely, and our guide Mariana friendly and knowledgeable. We felt in safe hands with our driver Novais. The lunch at the second vineyard was not so good - mass catered so cold food and small portions. Overall though it was a really enjoyable trip. Would recommend.
