Not much walking!

Can’t find the 1/2-day Living Tours Porto walking tour / port tasting we did on the list, so am reviewing here. Good things: the guide (Diego), very knowledgeable, and the very friendly driver (Maykal) who drove us to the winery. The tour and port tastings at the Quinta das Carvalhas winery were great and very informative. Less good: not much walking. We went from the cathedral to the station, and back. That was it. The tiles in S. Bento station are amazing, but we expected to see more. As a mixed English / Spanish group, every piece of information took twice as long, so that didn’t help. Also because of latecomers, we didn’t leave on time, so perhaps there was less time to cover more before we had to get back to the cathedral and get on the bus for the trip across the river for the port tasting. Anyway, disappointing overall. Would not recommend.

Douro boat trip & vineyards visit

We had a full day with Carlos Daniel. He was an a lovely guide - very entertaining - and even though we had a few bursts of rain it didn’t spoil an excellent experience as he kept the information coming and the enthusiasm going. Would 100% recommend!
