Porto: Tour de Vinho no Vale do Douro com Almoço, Degustações e Cruzeiro Fluvial

We enjoyed tour with variety of qine testing. Tour guide, Thomas explained history of Porto and economy and industry of Porto. It was insightful. Also a driver Carlos drives very gentle and make the long journey comfortable. Food was good and only thing I would like to mention about a quality of coffee. I didn't drink coffee after a bit of test the coffee and noticed other partisans didn't finish the coffee. Overall a good experience and worth to join the tour.

Highly recommended tour. The itinerary is perfect for a day tour, not cramped. The tour offered plenty of time for us to explore rather than feeling rushed. There were only about 16 people in each tour, so the guide was attentive to all of us. Lunch was exceptionally great too.

The tour, which was guided by a nice and funny guide German, was absolutely great. It's a bit sad that the boat ride had been canceled due to the severe weather. However, I enjoyed the port wines tasting and Douro Valley very much.

Throughout the trip, you can taste 6 different wines from two wineries: Croft Port - Quinta da Roêda (the jewel of the Douro Valley, modern elegance, a veteran brand in the port wine industry, classic three-glass port wine) and Quinta da Avessada (an interactive museum dedicated to preserving local winemaking culture, with humorous explanations; lunch is also served here, featuring Douro red and white wines, and a welcome sweet wine). These two wineries perfectly complement each other, completing the winemaking puzzle of this Douro Valley journey. The six wines have an alcohol content of approximately 10%-20%, are generally sweet, smooth, and easy to drink in excess, so don't underestimate their after-effects.

Muy contento con esta excursión de un día desde Oporto. No hubo comunicación previa por parte de la empresa turística, pero resulta que el punto de encuentro es una oficina de turismo muy visible en el centro de la ciudad y hay varios autobuses turísticos con la marca saliendo de la calle cercana, por lo que es una empresa turística grande y profesional, y bastante fácil de encontrar. Nuestro guía, Nelson, fue amable y se aseguró de que tuviéramos un día feliz. El tour fue tal como se describió, con una breve parada para tomar café por la mañana antes de llegar al viñedo para un recorrido y almuerzo. Tenga en cuenta que, contrariamente a algunas reseñas, se obtiene un cuarto de botella de vino tinto y blanco con el almuerzo, junto con dos vinos fortificados, por lo que no es una barra libre de alcohol. Nuestro almuerzo no fue una barbacoa, sino un sabroso bacalao y un plato de cerdo. También tenga en cuenta que no se proporciona agua, contrariamente a la descripción, así que compramos la nuestra en la parada. El paseo en barco está bien, pero no es nada especial, y la degustación de vino de Oporto podría incluir algún aperitivo o pan a estas alturas de la tarde. Pero no hay quejas. Fue una buena relación calidad-precio y tuvimos una buena experiencia.

Ótima excursão com a guia mais adorável e maternal, Marianna. Ela manteve o clima leve e divertido, apesar de um grupo pequeno e relativamente tranquilo de cerca de 11 pessoas. A excursão nos levou por paisagens incríveis de terraços e mais terraços de vinhedos. A degustação de vinho do Porto foi excelente, assim como o almoço. O passeio de barco quebrou o dia de forma agradável e foi uma experiência muito prazerosa.

La excursión está bien organizada, comenzó a tiempo, el autobús es cómodo y nuestro guía turístico Arnaldo tiene muchos conocimientos y habla bien inglés. Antes de llegar al Valle del Duero, hicimos una parada en Amarante, que es un pueblo precioso, y también fuimos a la presa. El Valle del Duero es hermoso y me alegro de que tuviéramos un crucero por el río, que fue lo más destacado del viaje.

This course is absolutely perfect when you meet the delightful guide, Suzan, on a well-planned itinerary! I was happy and satisfied throughout the entire schedule. The bus, which was our transportation, was clean, and the bus driver's comfortable and safe driving was excellent. Suzan is a guide I'd love to meet again, and this is a trip I would definitely recommend.

I like the tour. The tour guide and bus driver are very friendly. The scenery is beautiful and the wines we tasted were so good. The tour can be exhausting, so try to rest well before the trip.

Join the English group tour (find the meeting point and scan the QR code to check in upon arrival). Don't worry too much, the whole group consists of Europeans and Americans, and everyone is quite lively on the way. The tour guide is very nice (they also confirm meeting times when getting on and off the bus). The weather was good on the day of departure, and the scenery along the Douro Valley was beautiful. The elevated sections of the valley are worth seeing. The winery introduction, wine tasting, and boat trip were all enjoyable. Lunch also included red and white wine, and the portions were filling. It was a relaxing, no-brainer tour. If it were September, during the grape harvest season in Portugal, it would probably be even more beautiful. Highly recommended.
