Porto: Dourovallei dagvullende tour per boot, trein en lunch

The guide was wonderful and so sweet. He was helpful throughout the day and taught us a lot about the area.

Our trip to the Douro Valley with Carlos was excellent! Carlos is incredibly knowledgeable, warm, and a fantastic communicator. The train ride followed by an excellent local lunch were the highlights for us. The team for the boat ride was also wonderful! We had a fantastic time tasting port wine, exploring the small, picturesque town of Amarante, and even visiting some bonus spots that made the trip extra special. At the end of the day, Carlos was kind enough to drop us off near the gondolas in Porto, so we could check them out before leaving. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience!

We thoroughly enjoyed our Nov 5/24 Douro Valley Tour, in spite of cloudy weather & bit of rain. Guide, Antonio, was excellent. He was informative, accommodating, great driver. Our brief boat ride on the Douro was a great experience in spite of clouds and drizzle. Our captain (Sorry,forgot his name) & first mate, Dianne, were interactive, informative and a great team to share the information along the way. We were also served sparkling wine to commemorate the occasion. After departing the boat we boarded the train back to our starting point and were driven to the vineyard for our lunch and tour. The historical vineyard house is furnished with original pieces of furniture, information about the family & property. The meal was top shelf, prepared by the vineyard matriarch! Lots of food and wine to accompany each course. After our meal we were toured around the property by the son in the family. He’s a very entertaining and knowledgeable young man. Took the train back to Porto.
