    Excellent fun class. Ana was chatty, and encouraged everybody to get involved, (with plenty of Vinho Verde) to talk and bake. Highly recommended. The class was really well located as it is only 10minutes walk from the port house tastings.

    A great way to see the cities of Porto and Gaia, our guide was very knowledgeable and able to point out many details that we would not have seen and also provided some history and context which helped bring everything to life. We have since been back to some of the highlighted places to spend more time and look even more closely at the sites.

    Some of the ride is a little bumpy but that is to be expected as the tour took us to backstreets and places which we would not have otherwise seen and the cobbled streets can be a little bit uneven.

    We had time to take in the views and take photos and our friendly local driver was able to answer all our questions.

    A great way to see Porto and Gaia and I would recommend doing it early in your visit.

    The host and captain was very welcoming, giving a lovely overview of the city, with a good amount of wine to accompany the tour. They made sure to accommodate to multiple languages, and for a small group tour it was still very intimate and friendly.

    Informative, educational and very, very tasty!
    Pedro was a friendly, knowledgeable guide, as was Jaoa, the expert bar person in Solar dos Dragos, who shared his knowledge on the wines and ports in question.

    Our host Vanessa from C & D Porto tours was very friendly and knowledgeable, not just about the wine but also about the region. She took her time to explain the differences between each category of port. We had never been to a wine tasting before and were a little apprehensive but there was no need. We felt at ease and came away having learnt a lot in a relatively short time.

    Pedro and Silvia were such kind and friendly hosts. Both born and raised in Porto, they shared all there was to know about each of the 6 bridges and the river, and life in Porto. In March, it was a little chilly on the water, but they had more than enough blankets for the passengers to stay warm. There's an inside part of the boat where you can sit and enjoy the view, or you can stay on the outside. Plenty of room. They also had a free drink and small snacks for us.

    It was a beautiful day out and we got a marvelous sunset view. Even on a rainy day, if you don't have other plans in Porto, a rainy afternoon cruise with Pedro and Silvia on the inside of their boat may still be a cozy and interesting adventure if you want to learn more about the Douro River, Porto. the surrounding cities, and life in Portugal. These guys are the best. Will definitely recommend to friends and familiy who get to visit Porto in the future.

    Tour was lovely. We were lucky to get the whole boat to ourselves and the full time attention of our crew. The blankets provided were a welcome wind break. The boat was spotless and very stable to the relief of my wife!

    A wonderful cruise on the Douro! Lots of excellent info and great conversation with the captain. Really loved this small and personal experience. Captain was extremely capable and we felt very safe even in some rather strong winds as we left the marina. So much better than the larger tour boats filled with so many people. Highly recommend

    This, is, UNBELIEVABLY GREAT FUN. Who does not want to dance on a yacht whilst sailing into sunset. If you don't like loud crowds, this is not for you my friend. Be prepared for loads of Bachelorettes and loud singing. The staff was so awesome and friendly. This is highly recommended. FUN FUN FUN

    The boat was very comfortable and the captain and guide were wonderful. The guide gave us a lot of information about the river and surrounding area. The wine and tapas were delicious. I highly recommend this tour

    We had a great time. Learned a lot about the city and about Port and the Duoro Valley from our tour guide. We never would've learned so much about the wines on our own. She gave great restaurant recommendations as well! Easy and fun.

    This is an informative tour, teaching about the ground, the grapes, the process, and finally the wine. I thought it was very educational, and I’ve been in a wine club many years. I think it was a little expensive, and they really don’t limit it the amount of people on a tour. There are different prices depending on how many wines you want to sample. I’d go for the cheapest because you get two as a minimum and that should be sufficient.
