Nice tour, beautiful scenery, comfortable bus ride with WiFi available. Lunch and tasting at the second winery was highlight. First winery we visited, our bus arrived last and we were asked to join a tour already in progress. I think they should have waited for all to arrive before starting the tour. Also suggest that bus be equipped with a mic as it was sometimes hard to hear our guide.

Great tour, beautiful landscape, lot of Porto and wine, good food, excellent guide. The only negative point was a confusion for the pick up point from the agency, however everything has ended well.

50/50 mix of German and English speaking guests with German native guide. Commentary in both languages, that was ok, but guide struggled with any questions in English. The tour was sold as "English", so I felt disappointed most of the day. Very rushed from point to point, lunch was lacklustre. So all in all I felt not worth the money. Nice in the Druro Valley.

We had a wonderful experience travelling with our 2 daughters (3 and 10). Our guide Catia was excellent and really helped make the girls feel special. She was knowledgeable, helpful, and lovely to be around.

Great trip: Douro Valley Tour: Wine Tasting, River Cruise and Lunch From Porto. Ricardo, our tour guide, was informative and a really nice guy. The lunch was very tasty. The views were awesome, and we enjoyed the 3 wineries. Highly recommend this. The tour operator was CM Tours via Viator.

A really brilliant way to spend one of our days in Porto, we were picked up from our hotel promptly and driven out to the beautiful Douro Valley. All the stops were wonderful, the boat ride, Quinta do Tedo and Casa dos Barros were all lovely, the Port was great and the food at Casa dos Barros was delicious. Our guide, Ricardo, did an amazing job leading the tour in both English and Spanish.

We were picked up promptly at our hotel at 8AM by our knowledgeable and entertaining guide, Filipe. With a full van after a couple of other pick-ups, we zoomed north out of Porto to the stunning Douro Valley, stopping first at a winery for a lesson in making wine and some tastings. Lunch followed at a restaurant with wine, authentic food (can you say tripe?) and fantastic views, and then another winery where we learned about making port. And some tastings. A one-hour cruise on the Douro River was next, and more port was served. The boat was more authentic than luxurious, but fun and scenic. I'm not sure anyone didn't fall asleep on the ride home. One note that Viator should include is that it can get quite hot in the Valley. Many people were overdressed. Thanks, Filipe! Thanks, Viator!

The most important features of a tour are the destination and the guide. Both were absolutely first class. A truly amazing landscape and a guide to match. Carla is so good at what she does and a very delightful human being. We could not have asked for any more even in the face of unexpected difficulties she remained calm, funny and a pleasure to be with.

We had the best time on this tour. The guides are not only very knowledgeable about the Douro Valley and the wine, but also hilarious. The valley itself was breathtaking, the lunch was delicious and we even learned to appreciate port wine. One tiny complaint was the ride home was way too hot after all that wine. Besides that, perfect service and perfect day! Please send the group photo!

We have done a lot of tours in our travels, and really enjoyed this one. We couldn't believe how much we packed in for the price, but it was a nice pace. We were gone from 8:45-6:30, and were picked up and dropped off at our place which was great. The Douro Valley is incredibly beautiful and we enjoyed sitting back and enjoying the views and several tastings, including a multi course lunch. The river cruise was a nice break, and gave us time to really savor it all. If you want to see the Douro Valley, don't hesitate and book this tour. It's an amazing way to spend the day. Enjoy!

Ivo was great - now only as a winemaker who knew all the intricacies of the process, but also as a great source of a wide variety of information about customs, traditions, and overall way of life. Thanks, Ivo! Yours sincerely, Victor, Sofya, David

We had a wonderful time with Ivo our guide spent getting to know why the Douro Valley is special. In a small group (8) of English language speakers we travelled in a comfortable van. We travelled via the modern motorway to the Doro Valley where we visited two very different wineries, tasted wines, cheeses and jams made on each estate. The first was a very old estate but with a modern stainless steel equipment for making white, red and port wines. The second was also very old but had retained traditional methods, including the foot stamping of the grapes. Between the two wineries, lunch was served at a lovely restaurant high on the slopes of the Douro River Valley. Lunch consisted of savory starters and olives, sardines or chicken for mains and creme brulee to follow. Drinks included white and red wine and water. Lunch was filling and delicious. The visits to the wineries was complemented by a trip by boat on the river which gave another perspective of the beautiful valley. All in all this was great value and a good way to understand more about what makes this part of Portugal so special. We enjoyed ourselves thoroughly and complement Ivo on his skill as both driver and guide. We would gladly recommend this day trip to others as good value for money.

The Douro Valley day trip is a great way to see this incredible area in a short time. Our guide Sergio picked us up at our hotel. He was very knowledgable and provided interesting commentary along the route. The winery tour was interesting and informative and the port was good too! The one hour boat trip on the Douro was just long enough to take in the beautiful scenery along the river with more port. Our lunch on a deck overlooking the vineyards was incredible, great food and wine. More port tasting in the winery made for a quiet drive back to our Porto hotel! Would highly recommend this tour.

Our day in the Douro valley, and cruising the Douro river, could not have gone better. Ricardo, our guide/driver was prompt, friendly, engaging and knowledgeable. He brought us to several truly beautiful spots in the hills where we sampled some fine, small-production port wines. The tastings never felt like grudging or rote marketing of their products--rather it was master craftspeople eager to share their pride and knowledge. No pressure at all to buy anything. The lunch was really, really good in a hilltop winery with sweeping views. The leisurely river cruise was the perfect way to savor the after-effects of our many glasses of port, not too long, on water smooth as glass.

We had an amazing time on this trip and I would recommend this to anyone wanting to explore the Douro Valley in a day! We enjoyed the views, boat ride, wineries, food and lots of wine, and the best tour guide Diana - she really made this trip memorable!
