Best Douro Valley Tour - This tour was 10/10 that we highly recommend! It ended up just being our group of 5 which was nice. Alex was hands down the best tour guide so make sure you book with him. He was super knowledgeable, accommodating, and went above and beyond to give us suggestions on restaurants and bars in town. The wineries were also amazing and all the people were super nice. Overall a great experience!

Excellent - My daughters booked this for us. I didn’t know what to expect other than the wine and Port. Marcio picked us up from our hotel. He was polite friendly and very professional from the moment he picked us up.we had a fantastic day and visited three different vineyards. Marcio was very knowledgeable about the local area, and our hosts at vineyards were all excellent. My wife and I have told many of our friends to visit the Douro valley, and recommended Marcio and Excellence Tours

Fantastic family experience - Fantastic private family tour of multiple wineries coupled with a relaxing cruise and lunch. Our guide, Hugo, was excellent and an encyclopedia of knowledge. He went out of his way to make sure everything was smooth and by the end felt like a family member.
