A1 service - We were a group of 6. The Mercedes van was very comfortable. Driver, Euclides, arrived on time. Very neat. Very polite. Pointed out and explained the different sites we passed. Drove smoothly. Very accommodating to stops for bathroom breaks.
I would highly recommend.
After our day trip to Porto, we got another trip to Sintra with the same company for the following day.

Perfect Day! - We had an amazing trip from start to finish on Monday October 14th with Euclides. The tour was fabulous. Euclides was extremely knowledgeable and informative showing us the major attractions of the beautiful city of Porto. We learned so much and loved talking to him about the history and culture. He arranged for our lunch at a fabulous cafe on the Douro River with breathtaking views of the port. The tour of the Taylor winery was a great finale to our wonderful day. Euclides expertly navigated the streets of Porto. The pickup and drop offs were beyond our expectations of how he made our trip extremely convenient.
We extend a huge Thank you to him for a perfect day!!

Great Trip - Rui made our Porto trip most enjoyable. He was knowledgeable, considerate, and entertaining. It was especially nice to have someone else to do the driving. I highly recommend this tour and especially Rui.

Highly Recommend - Ishmael was an Excellent, driver, guide, historian & current events resource.
My wife has some mobility issues & we walk slowly. Ishmael showed a great deal of respect, adjusting the tour to our pace & watching out for Mrs missteps.

Porto in a Day - Had a wonderful time in Porto. My tour guide Carlos was very knowledgeable about the area and took us to the best spots in town…the Harry Potter Library and the “world’s most beautiful McDonalds”. The restaurant recommendation for lunch was fantastic! Porto is a magnificent city and I’m glad that Carlos was my guide!

Amazing day through the Douro Valley. - We were picked up in a spotlessly clean Mercedes by Paolo at our hotel. We asked for an itinerary change to see the Douro Valley and visit a vineyard. It was quickly confirmed. We drove through the beautiful countryside discussing Portugal and world politics. Paulo knew so much about his country - we learned a great deal. He stopped several times at great photo spots - the valley with all its vineyards is stunning! Finally, he took us to the Pacheka vineyard where we had a tasting. Fantastic! We’re new wine club members and sent a case home. Try the Tawny Port! We had lunch at a spot he knew of and walked around Lamego a bit. We didn’t get back until 8:30 as the drive was around 4 hours each way. He was so accommodating and it was a magnificent day. We cannot recommend this tour and this driver enough!

Exceptional tour! - The drive to Porto was worth it! Our guide, Miguel was awesome and showed us the major sites in Porto. He took us on the bridge overlooking the river to get a view that was simply amazing!

Port, beautiful experience - The beauty of Porto is undeniable and thanks to the Guide / Driver we had leaving Lisbon, we had a pleasant day. Ishmael, excellent driver and travel companion, with excellent vehicle for the trip. Sharing knowledge of the town, which Porto is in chaos for all the improvements they are making in the center. What you do, you should consider that the journey from Lisbon is long, almost three hours, and that it limits the time of visit in the sense that it is tourism and without time to wander around Porto, see what shopping opportunities there are. Although Ishmael arranged everything for some time to be curious.
I emphasize again, Porto beautiful town to visit and Ishmael excellent driver for a heavy and long trip.

Great experience with the perfect driver! - Luiz was fabulous, he gave us exactly what we wanted. There was a great balance between educating us and letting us enjoy. He was great to spend the day with and made sure we saw absolutely everything we could in the time we had.
