We booked a private Douro Valley tour for 4 with Joao and could not have asked for a better experience! Booking was easy with fast commutations from Norberto. Joao picked us up and was an amazing, knowledgeable and personal tour guide. We learned so much about Portugal’s history and culture. He shuttled us around all day in a nice air conditioned van. The boat ride was awesome (we had a little boat all to ourselves!) and lunch was at this amazing private little winery (they were wonderful about working with dietary restrictions). We also toured a second winery, where the owner gave the tour himself, and it was both funny and informative. Joao then dropped us off at the train station. It was such an incredible experience. Highly recommended! Thank you so much, Joao! We all enjoyed ourselves so much (probably had 11-12 different kinds of wine)!

Norberto provided us (two couples) a wonderful one-day experience touring the Douro Valley. Despite the rain, he ensured we saw spectacular views of the valley and enjoyed the tastings at two wineries and a one-hour boat ride on the river. We also had an amazing and delicious lunch experience at a very rustic restaurant. Norberto is an excellent guide who brings great knowledge and enthusiasm along with a wonderful sense of humor. We were impressed with his professionalism and for being so personable. He’s also a safe driver. I would highly recommend Norberto.

An amazing day trip with the best host Norberto! Super knowledgeable about the area and set us up with an itinerary that was exceptional. Thank you!
