Douro Valley Tour ( Taylor Made )
Overview
The Douro Valley is one of the most beautiful landscapes in the world. However, not everyone is a big wine lover. To avoid visiting several wineries with different tastings, this tour was designed for small private groups of up to 4 people.
The tour is intended to introduce you to the region's history and culture, with free time to do what you want, whether it's a boat trip, wine tasting at the wineries, or dining at a restaurant. Please note that some wineries require advance reservations. I can help you decide where to go according to your preferences, but if you want to visit a specific winery or have lunch at a particular restaurant, you should inform us so we can schedule the visit.
For a more relaxed day, without having to wake up too early, we suggest picking you up around 10 am, with a return to Porto by 5 pm.
The cost is 220€ per car (maximum 4 people).

Amazing tour with Marcio This was an excellent tour with Marcio. The region is spectacular. Marcio was an amazing tour guide. He made sure we were having a great time. Marcio is extremely knowledgable about the area and the Portugease wines. He was very flexible and adjusted the itinerarey to accomodate a boat tour. He took us to more quiet, local, authentic places. Overall it was an unforgetful day. We were so happy with Marcios hospitality that we asked him to take us for another tour. Highly recommend this private tour with Marcio ! - 3/26/2025 read moreread less

A pleasant day in the Douro valley a very nice day tasting wine in the Douro valley. Marcio the guide is a personable and attentive companion. He organized two very different and equally interesting tastings and a very nice slow lunch. Overall, a memorable experience. - 11/24/2024 read moreread less

Exceptional Stress-free Douro Wine Tour This tour was definitely a highlight of our trip to Porto. Communication with Márcio was great; we knew exactly what to expect beforehand. He picked us up from our hotel, and on the drive to the Douro valley, after treating us to cappuccinos, Márcio shared his extensive knowledge of Portuguese wine, food, and culture. Here’s where it pays to book a private tour— the drive up to the first winery we visited was up a windy, steep drive that could not be made by a larger sized tour group. The view and staff of this small winery were spectacular, and the wine was even better. We were kicking ourselves afterward for only purchasing one bottle. My husband and I had our own private tasting table in front of the window, apart from a tour group, and we were given higher-end and additional wines to taste. We were very well tended to at the second winery we visited as well. We made several other stops in various nearby towns that added to the the local experience. Márcio genuinely ensured we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves the whole day. This tour was authentic, did not feel the least bit touristy, and would not have been the same without Márcio. As a side note, I am a vegetarian, and Márcio ensured that I had ample food options at each stop. - 6/09/2024 read moreread less

Excelente forma de experimentar um pedaço do Vale do Douro Tivemos um dia incrível! Nosso guia era absolutamente adorável e conhecia muito bem a região, os vinhos e a comida. Gostamos muito do nosso tempo com ele e sentimos que aprendemos algumas coisas interessantes enquanto viajávamos pela bela paisagem rural. Recomendamos vivamente esta experiência. - 4/11/2024 read moreread less
