Wine Venture and Boat Trip in Douro Valley
Overview
We start our day in Porto, heading to Douro Valley in a very comfortable Mercedes Van driving through spectacular roads. We want to let you immerse in breathtaking views in a Unesco World Heritage Site. It's time for a stop in a hidden viewpoint where you will have a great opportunity to take wonderful pictures.
THE WINE AND SOMETHING MORE
We will visit a stunning old winery where you will discover more about viticulture, winemaking and wine aging. You will learn about technical specifications of Douro Wines and their Terroir. Tasting their wines is embracing the whole region by feeling its aromas, flavours and complexity.
NOT JUST WINE
Before lunch, nothing fits better than 1 hour private cruise enjoying the breathtaking views with tasty snacks and drink.

The views were incredible. Our tour guide was Leonardo and he was so personable. We drove up the valley to a overview lookout for photos, then went on to tour a winery in Pinhao. We spent an hour on the river seeing the vineyards from that point. Then we went to another winery where we had a tour and had lunch in their kitchen. It was a long and very fun day. because there were six of us, we were picked up at our hotel. Very good company!Great day trip. Maybe should have stopped for a couple of scenic photo opportunities. Leonardo was a very attentive and friendly host especially as he has been in the role for only a couple of weeks. Has a great career in tourism ahead of him. Plenty to eat and drink along the way. Thankyou BT ...

BY FAR, one of the coolest experiences we’ve ever done!! My husband and I booked this trip while visiting Porto to celebrate our wedding anniversary and it was the best decision we’ve ever made. The winery tour/tasting, lunch, and boat ride were all SUPERB! But, the person who truly made our experience was our guide, Rita.
