I was skeptical, and LOVED IT!! A Fantastic Day on the Douro! - I was really skeptical. But this trip was AWESOME!! I am not that into wine and olives but this was still a fantastic trip. It was a van ride with 7 other people (strangers) but we became friends quickly. First stop in Amarante for the “Breakfast of Champions” - ham, bread, goat cheese, green wine, and red wine. It was lovely. Next stop Pinhao for a short boat ride along the prettiest part of the Douro River. The views were spectacular, and we were on a spacious boat with room to move around. After the boat, we went up the mountain to have wine tasting at Origem. They gave us a tour of how olive oil was made and then we tasted three wines and two olive oils and some honey. The Rose was fantastic. Also, the view from there was easily among the best views of the day! Finally, we went down and back up to visit the restaurant for lunch. Very good food, two kinds of wine, some olives, and port wine for dessert. We also did a port wine tasting of 10 year, 20 year, and 30 year port at a picturesque spot. A great finish to the trip. I would be remiss if I didn’t mention Manuel, our guide, who spoke excellent English and was a wealth of knowledge for us to learn from all day!!! We loved Manuel! If you are skeptical, this is an amazing way to spend the day in the Porto/Douro area.
