Review of Porto’s Douro Valley day trip with winery lunch, six tastings, river cruise, Amarante stop, and scenic N222 drive.
“We really enjoyed the trip, however the bus ride was long and it would have been more comfortable with only 2 people in a row, as the middle row person could not enjoy the beautiful views from the bus. My daughter and I had a very good time seeing all the wonderful stops. The tours at the wineries were very informative and the food was excellent. The wines at both vineyards was exceptional. Our driver was very friendly and informative. I would highly recommend this tour. 5starts.”

Review of Porto’s Douro Valley day tour with Amarante, scenic viewpoints, lunch, Rabelo boat cruise, and three-wine tasting.
“I think this day trip is very good if you only want to go to one winery (three tastings) versus three wineries and don't feel confident driving yourself or hiring a personal driver / tour guide (where you could customise your trip and visit more townships etc). Be aware the cruise requires you to download an app and listen to an audio recording. It would be helpful if the link to the app / recording was sent to participants before the tour commenced (in the confirmartion email) and suggest bringing your own headphones. I did not enjoy having the tour guide speak in two languages (e.g. French then English or…”

Porto city train, port cellar tasting, and Douro cruise reviewed with practical tips, timing advice, value notes, and honest drawbacks.
“The experience was absolutely fantastic. The exchange of the email confirmation at the magic Tourism office for individual tickets was so easy and well organised - the guy manning the desk was friendly and helpful. I really enjoyed being able to split the activities over two days which proved even better value for money in my opinion. Plus helped us avoid a spot of bad weather too! We went on the train to the wine cellar one day followed by the boat cruise the day after when the sun returned. Everything was really clearly explained to us regarding pick up location and times. Would 100% recommend”
