Do this tour!!

This was an absolutely amazing experience. I went with João and had such a fun time. I will admit I knew nothing about wine, and I still don’t (though there was a nice tour about them), but I definitely enjoyed it. I would highly recommend this tour. I went by myself, and it was fine because everyone was so friendly that I felt very safe. The wine was absolutely delicious. We had a wine tasting at the stop. And then, during lunch, we had access to unlimited wine, followed by a tasting of Porto wine. We also went on a boat tour of the Duoro valley, and it was quite nice, especially as no one else was on the boat!!

First third was fantastic ! Tram ride was fun too.

First visit to Fonseco port lodge was fantastic educational experience. Then 2 smaller places were less exciting and very repetitive. We enjoyed some of the port wines more than others. And we learned a lot. Victor was very friendly and helpful

Pretty Porto

Porto is NOT flat. Unless you have mobility issues, don’t let some ups and downs stop you from enjoying a great walk around the city.
