Wonderful experience. Highly recommend this tour. - What a fantastic tour led by Nino Lisboa. From the moment we stepped on our tour till the very end was extremely enjoyable. Nuno’s customer service and knowledge was excellent. The tour which included the winery, the lunch, the boat trip and the views was 10/10. There were so many tours on offer but so glad I chose Douro First Tours. The private lunch all cooked by the wonderful chef which we enjoyed in a beautiful atmosphere. It felt as though we were having a home cooked family lunch. Highly recommend. Definitely the highlight of our 3 day Porto trip.

Lovely setting and a fine host - The Douro Valley is absolutely beautiful. I think all tours offer a tasting or two, a boat ride on the river, and a Portuguese lunch. The value of our tour was enhanced by our intelligent, knowledgeable and thoughtful host Miguel, who explained a lot about the region and the wines.

A day full of wine, food, and fun! - We spent a wonderful day with Pedro, our tour guide. He was very informative, personable, and professional. We stopped at a winery for a tour and a tasting, took a scenic boat ride on the Douro River, and had a delicious lunch. Port wine aplenty throughout. Pick up and drop off were at our hotel. Very small groups travel in minivans with their own guide and meet at the activities. Every group seemed to like their guide. The format makes for a relaxing and enjoyable day.

Well worth a trip with these guys, they do their job very well. - We were picked up promptly from our hotel and shared the Luxury Vito with two other couples. Pedro was our driver who was full of information and fun. We visited a fine private family run winery where we enjoyed their wines and ports and light refreshments. A boat trip on the Douro followed and after that we drove to a fabulous lunch at a private farmhouse. A really good way to see this area and would highly recommended Pedro and Douro First Tours who looked after us so well.

Duoro Valley Day Wine Tour - I signed up for the Duoro First day wine tour on Nov. 2, 2024 through my hotel (Hilton Porto Gaia). I was picked up on time at my hotel and enjoyed a wonderful tour which included several photo opportunities, wine tasting at Quinta Seara d'Ordens (which I had enjoyed at a restaurant in Lisbon), a beautiful boat ride on the Duoro at Pinhao, and then a wonderful meal in Villa Real before returning to the hotel. I was so happy that I did this tour as every minute was amazing and well planned. As a solo traveler, I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I also want to say thank you to the Duoro First team. I left my cell phone in the van after returning to the hotel. My hotel contacted Duoro First and the driver drove 90 minutes late at night to return my phone to the hotel. I could not believe the incredible service that they provided! Thank you so much!

Fun day, but from now on prefer to book at a kiosk - Let me say first of all that we had a nice day. Comfortable mini-van picked us up at the hotel. We were 2 couples. The tasting was informative, cozy and especially tasty (tastings are generally free), the boat trip we shared with 2 other mini-vans (about 12 people), nothing was told and it was the same part of the valley we had already driven through. Porto & snack were tasty. Then for late lunch (3pm!) to what turned out to be the boss's airbnb (tax-wise advantageous it seems). The other mini-vans were there again, but they ate separately. Everyone was uncomfortable. The home cooked meal was fine but in the end this day was definitely NOT worth 160 € p.p. I also reported this to the hotel.
