Released February 12, 2025. - Superb day of discovery of the Douro valley of the cellars and boat ride. Our guide Mr José Mendosa, with a lot of humor, introduced us with passion to the history of Portugal, Porto and the Douro Valley by applying himself to speak in French when we were only two in the group. A big thank you to José for his professionalism and kindness towards my girlfriend whose birthday was. I forgot, the lunch we had on February 12 was also very good.

I highly recommend - It was a very pleasant experience. The bus is very clean and deluxe. The guide Isabelle is fantastic and so is the driver. The tasting experience is well organized and the visit is very rewarding. Lunch was very good and service fast. The cruise is also very pleasant and allowed us to observe the landscape from another glance. We were treated to good musical entertainment during transport and a beautiful view of the multiple landscapes on the road between Porto and Douro Valley. We finish with a visit to a very pretty city with its original architecture. It is a must in Porto.

Physical and mental relaxation experience - The valley of the Douro River is beautiful, the view is excellent, I took a lot of photos, lunch and guided tours are great, the companions are friendly, if there is a local language guide it will be better.

Nice walk - Very nice and pleasant tour! With free time for photos, snacks, shopping etc. Highlight to the guide / driver Paul who with his education, knowledge and culture enriched the experience considerably! I did not give maximum score due to the offer of QR Code for the use of “virtual guide” during the Douro cruise. If the explanation of the points along the boat ride were done in person, the experience would have been amazing.

Far too much bus transport - The tour includes a 30-minute stop in Mirante after 1 hour by bus. Then another hour by bus for the boat ride. Then visit the cellar for 1 hour and very light meal in the restaurant. All for the morning until 2:00. Then the return on 2 hours drive with a stop seen 10 minutes. Like some comments, I found the day disproportionate for visits. Might as well rent a car and go eat in a real traditional Portuguese restaurant. As for the guide Juan and the bus driver Luis, nothing to say! they did their job flawlessly and were really nice. 10 out of 10 for both of them.

BEWARE!!!!!!! it DOES NOT include hotel pick up - BEWARE!!!!!!! it DOES NOT include hotel pick up like the add states. Below is a cut and paste of trip advisor add! while convenient hotel pickup means that you don’t have to worry about finding a meeting point in the morning.
