Traveler reviews
A great day in Poro
First I must say that Andre (our driver and tour guide) was incredible. We learned so much from him and he was so friendly and an incredible driver. The roads to get to where he took us were not easy to navigate. The Duoro Valley winery and river boat cruise was a great part of our trip to Poro and so glad we took this trip.

Alex was a great guide! He is personable and knowledgeable. He made the tour fun and worthwhile. It was a great day!
AMAZING DOURO VALLEY TOUR
We had the most incredible day exploring the Douro Valley, and this tour exceeded all of our expectations! The scenery was absolutely breathtaking, the wineries were wonderful, and the entire day was perfectly organized from start to finish. It was such a beautiful way to experience the region, and we left feeling like we had truly gotten to know and appreciate the Douro Valley. A HUGE shoutout to our guide, Alex, who honestly made the entire experience so special. He was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, funny, and genuinely passionate about the region. Alex had the perfect balance of sharing interesting history and information while still keeping the day relaxed, fun, and personal. He was also so attentive to every little detail and made sure we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves throughout the entire day. You can tell Alex genuinely loves what he does, and that made such a difference. He went above and beyond to make our day memorable, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. If you’re visiting Porto, do yourself a favour and book a Douro Valley tour — and if you can request Alex, absolutely do it! This was one of the highlights of our trip to Portugal and an experience we’ll remember for a long time. 🇵🇹🍷✨
