This tour was a highlight of our time in Portugal. Andreia and Valdemar were incredibly knowledgeable and welcoming, and gave us a thoughtful and fun day that highlighted the beauty of the area. They’re from the region and, both with their own stories and experiences and by connecting us with people who worked at the quintas, allowed us to get to understand the region in a much deeper way than we would on another type of tour. The tastings were fantastic, and we loved our local lunch and boat ride. This is a day we won’t forget, and we appreciate how special they made it for us. The only tip that we have (apart from making sure you book this tour) is to leave space in your case for all the incredible port wines and olive oils that you will pick up along the way!
Andreia and Valdemar were amazing. So informative and kind. We had an absolutely delightful day with them. Wonderful tastings and outstanding food at local restaurant. We could not have asked for a better experience.
Amazing from start to finish. It was a great day for me and my wife. We really enjoyed all of the local wine knowledge that Andrea passed on to us. She was an amazing guide.
Thank you, Chris, for sharing your experience! We’re thrilled to hear you and your wife enjoyed the local wine journey with us. Your kind words mean a lot to us ; Kind Regards, Andreia and Valdemar
Fantastic day! Ándreia and her husband, Valdemere, were fantastic tour guides. Valdemere navigated the roads beautifully and Andreia was so passionate and knowledgeable about her country. Loved the small family wineries and the lunch was one of our best meals. Best tour we have been on in Portugal!
Thank you, Brenda, for sharing your experience and for your kind words. We're glad you enjoyed the tour and that your experience was memorable. We hope to see you again in the future. Kind Regards, Andreia and Valdemar

Thank you, Danielle, for sharing your experience! We're thrilled you enjoyed the tour, the locations, and appreciated Valdemar's driving. It's wonderful to know the lunch and overall visit left a positive impression! Kind Regards, Andreia and Valdemar
The amazing duo of the Douro, Andreia and Valdemar, run a perfect day tour of wineries, viewpoints, a fantastic local lunch, and a 1 hr boat cruise out of Pinhão. Stop searching…book this tour.
Thank you for your lovely review! We're so glad you enjoyed the tour and the organized activities so much. We hope to welcome you back for more unforgettable experiences in the future. Kind Regards , Andreia and Valdemar
Excellent wine tour with beautiful scenery, great wines, and a relaxing boat trip. Our guide was fantastic and even surprised me with two Super Bock beers during the excursion, which was a nice touch! The entire experience was well-organized, enjoyable, and a great way to spend the day. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the area.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience, Benjamin. We're so glad to hear you enjoyed the tour, the scenery, and those special little details like the Super Bock bier .We hope to see you again for more unforgettable moments Kind Regards, Andreia and Valdemar
Trip was amazing! Our hosts were the absolute best. Andreia Douro Tours were the absolute best!!!! They were knowledgeable, down to earth, fun and had such great insight in the region having grown up here. A true authentic experience.
Thank you, Megan ,for sharing your experience. We're delighted to hear you enjoyed the trip and our local perspective so much. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure! Kind Regards, Andreia and Valdemar
The small group made us feel connected and we were able to move at a good pace. Andreia provided us with a lot of history and heritage about the area. Both winery's offered great insight into the making of wine, including port wine. We also enjoyed a generous amount of wine and Moscatel with lunch which was very noteworthy. Also to note was Valdemar's excellent driving. He navigated the winding roads with skillfulness and made us feel safe. Overall, we would recommend this tour group to those looking to support a small business, learn more about local history, and move at a relaxed pace. Thank you Andreia and Valdemar!
Thank you, Oneshia, for sharing your experience! We're delighted you appreciated the insightful guidance, safe driving, and intimate group setting. Your kind words inspire us to continue providing authentic tours. We’re grateful for your recommendation! Kind Regards, Andreia and Valdemar
A very beautiful experience with a very interesting and engaged guide, along with her experienced driver husband (as the roads of the Douro can be complex to navigate!). This package is a nice mix of vineyard visits (one a bit commercial, and the other very family-oriented). There is also a small boat cruise (without service, but the guides graciously provided us with drinks and fresh fruit to support us during the 50 minutes that the cruise lasted). We were picked up at our accommodation and taken back to our accommodation at the end, which is frankly amazing considering that the day is very full, thus tiring. And finally, the lunch is beyond all expectations. We had lunch at a restaurant and the table was full of delicious and typical food. Thank you!
Merci Carl ! Nous sommes ravis que l'expérience vous ait plu . Nous apprécions vos gentils mots et espérons vous revoi de nouvelles expériences Salutations, Andreia et Valdemar
