Overview
As specialized guides, we take you to the off-the-beaten cultural, wine, food and tailor-made Experiences!
Enjoy this private tour to the UNESCO World Heritage Douro Valley with an expert local guide that will show you the culture and history of this region. Discover the excellent wines and local products of the small producers and relax while you hear the stories that are behind these charming wineries. Have lunch in a winery (recommended) with stunning scenery and taste some of the local food presented in a contemporary way (lunch not included). Take a rabelo boat group cruise in the heart of the Douro Valley on a traditional boat used, in the past, to transport the port wine barrels to Vila nova de Gaia, before visiting a charming winery where you can stroll in the vineyards and taste some of the best douro DOC and port wines. All transportation is in a comfortable, luxury and air conditioning van.
