What To Expect

In the early morning, board an air-conditioned minivan destined for the rolling hills of the Douro Valley. During the scenic drive, your guide provides commentary and details the day ahead.

Your first stop is Peso da Régua, a sprawling riverside town famed for its production of port wine, where you drink in vistas of the city from an elevated lookout point. Then, visit wine estates to sample locally produced wine during a tasting session.

Lunch: expect to enjoy dishes such as roasted chicken, spicy rice, and fish stew.

Sated, board a boat and enjoy a river cruise down the Douro; delight in your beautiful surroundings before you return to the coach and travel to another viewpoint to capture sweeping panoramas of the landscape.

After stopping at a small wine village enshrouded in history, return to your Porto hotel and bid your guide farewell.

Stunning views. Great experience.

Excellent trip. Started with the boat tour which was stunning. And they even included a couple of wines and home made cookies. Nice touch. The winery tours were great. One big name and one smaller family owned winery. It’s great to compare the two. The English tour guide at Quinte de Marrocco was perfect. So much detail and very personable. Lunch was ok. Delicious soup and average rest of the meal. And the views are outstanding. Bring a fully charged camera.

We really loved Douro valley and the wine tour. Honestly it showed us that all the wine that we have had until today was just terrible! We are not wine lovers or even know much about wine, but really enjoyed the tour and the experience.

Overall, this tour was a great experience. Our tour guide, Ivo, was very friendly, knowledgeable and kept us laughing all day. His English was very good and he took the time to explain and answer any questions our group had. Our group of 8 people traveled with a mini-van to several locations, then towards the end of the day, we took at one-hour boat tour in Duoro Valley, before heading back to our pick-up location in Porto. We had plenty of time in each location and we were able to take some memorable pictures. Also, there was plenty of port wine throughout the day. We were able to taste the three main types of port (Tawny, Ruby and Rose).
