Did a small group tour in the Douro Valley that was the highlight of our time in Portugal. The wineries we visited were great, the boat ride was lovely, and the views everywhere were spectacular. Our guide Sara was wonderful and I really appreciated her giving us some local recommendations near our hotel in Porto on our drive back. I’d highly recommended this tour to anyone.
Great tour to Braga and Guimarães. Guide was super helpful and nice. Loved all the sites visited except Guimarães Castle which was a little disappointing. Tour ran well and was well planned.
An excellent day tour of Braga and Guimaraes. Our guide Bruno was superb, highly knowledgeable about both the history and the religious significance of the places visited. Good driving as well. Lunch was also very good and a welcome relaxation. He was also very caring regarding my wife’s partial mobility issues.
We had an excellent day trip to Braga and Gimaraes with Sergio! He was very knowledgeable, very friendly and attentive, spoke very good English. Communication about pick-up etc. was very clear and the program was also very well composed. If (or when) we come back to Porto we will definitely book a wine tasting tour with them :)
What a fantastic day exploring the Douro Valley and learning about Portugal, wine and more. Our guide, Tiago, was informative and entertaining, and every stop along the way was delightful. It was so nice to let someone else do all the driving so all we had to do was eat, drink, learn, and enjoy! This was absolutely the best and most enjoyable thing I did on my visit to Portugal!
