Private tour and Lunch around Douro Valley

Start this private full-day adventure with a pick up from your hotel in a comfortable air-conditioned minibus. Experience the sights on this exciting journey into the heart of the Douro Wine Region. Get to know all about Port Wine and the History of the Douro Region as you have the chance to visit two well-known Port Wine Estates.

Surprise yourself with the endless opportunities to take stunning photographs of the region. Since 2001, the Douro Valley has been a World Heritage Site and you can definitely understand why. Fall in love with the wonderful views that the different viewpoints ("miradouros") offer you.

This is a hometown of wine producers, so it's time to visit a renowned Wine Estate to understand all about the process of winemaking. The high quality of the grapes, in combination with the perfect climate of the region, is the only way to give this very special wine its authentic character! Let's dive into a tasting experience: try some of the best Port wines.

Although it is a region known mainly for its delicious wines, we cannot forget its unique gastronomy. Strong flavors and fresh ingredients are two noticeable characteristics of the region. This private tour includes a traditional lunch at a typical restaurant in the region. Indulge yourself in Portuguese gastronomy and delight yourself!

After lunch, expect a one-hour scenic cruise on the Douro River in the village of Pinhão. This is the best way to end your day and we promise you enchanting moments! Observe the beautiful vineyards and the enchanted hills.

As expected, there is more to be discovered: another famous winery to visit. There, you will be invited to taste a wide variety of wines, surrounded by a truly welcoming surrounding: the vineyards of the Douro!

Afterwards, you will discover an extraordinary village called Provesende. Located on top of a plateau, it provides a special view over this wine region! Lastly, you will discover the history behind the beautiful tiles of the Pinhão train station. Let yourself fall in love with these remarkable ceramics that tell the story of the harvest of the Douro grapes.

Return comfortably to Porto with no worries. Have your guide drop you off at your hotel.
