Douro Valley Essential Tour: Wine & Landscape

Amazing!

We did 2 tours with Norberto – the Douro Valley day tour and 1/2 day to Aveiro & Costa Nova. The minute that we met Norberto, we felt that we had known him forever. He has a wonderful personality – warm, funny, very knowledgeable, relaxed and just happy to be with you. The trips with him were so enjoyable and it was good to get off the beaten track and see things from more of a local viewpoint.We hope to do more with sightseeing with him in the future.

Thanks to Norberto for a great day’s visit to the Douro Valley. Norberto was good company and knowledgeable about the wines, the area and the places we visited. Felt like the day was tailor-made for us. One of the highlights of our trip to Portugal.

My husband and I had a wonderful time. Noberto was really nice and knowledgeable. I totally recommend this tour.

Magical Douro Valley Tour

We, four in a family, did the “Douro Valley Tour” with Ennetours and were guided by Norberto who is also the owner of the tour company. First off from the price to value perspective, there is nothing out there that gives you the value that this tour gives you. In Norberto, we not only found a efficient and knowledgeable guide but also a friend who goes above and beyond to make memories for you and make you happy.

Norberto has a beautiful and comfortable van which made our travel very smooth. All through the tour, Norberto kept us engaged with wonderful facts and stories of the area.
We first were taken to the beautiful town of Amarante, we toured the beautiful narrow streets, the cathedral and the surrounding area.

If I had to describe how paradise looks like, Douro valley would probably be something that would come to my mind. The lush green vineyards on the valley with the beautiful Douro river flowing through it is something that gets permanently etched in our mind. We were taken to the best spots and views to get some of the most awesome pictures we have ever taken.

We were then taken to a non-touristy restaurant, very well known to locals, where we had the best Portuguese meal in Portugal. It as sort of fine dining. I had the wood oven roasted lamb which just melted in my mouth while rest of the family’s dishes of Veal and Bacalao Braga was awesome. The meal came with delicious bread, appetizers and wine. Note that this was all included in the tour (WOW).

Next we went for wine tasting with also a tour of the winery called “Quinta do Tedo”. The wines were amazing and the person showing u was extremely humorous. Th view from there was to die for.
Lastly we went to the small own of Pinhao where we were given the historical railway station and the ties decorated on it.

I highly recommend this tour to everyone, we thank Norberto for the wonderful experience and will always remember you as the best tour guide (and a friend) we ever had.

wunderbare Tour durch Porto und das Dourotal!

Wir hatten mit Norberto eine Stadttour durch Porto, die uns die Stadt in ihrer Ursprünglichkeit gezeigt hat und wir waren sofort begeistert. Norberto ist ein wunderbarer Führer, der alle Details und Hintergründe kennt. Wir haben dadurch einen super Überblick über die Stadt gewonnen. Außerdem war die Kontaktaufnahme und auch die gesamte Kommunikation einfach und unkompliziert.
Wir hatten außerdem noch eine Tagestour ins Dourotal gebucht. Und auch diese Tour war wahnsinnig schön. Wir haben so viele Dinge gesehen und die Zeit verflog im Nu. Und dann noch das ausgezeichnete Essen!!!! Und erst der Portwein-Aperitif am Aussichtspunkt!
Wir können Ennetours nur empfehlen und freuen uns sehr auf ein Wiedersehen. Herzlichen Dank Norberto für die tolle Zeit!!

“50th birthday celebrations”
Travelled with a group of friends for a friend’s 50th. What an amazing, fun packed long weekend we had. Norbetto designed the best tour of Porto and beyond. The apartment we stayed in was amazing and clean (1851), though the staff could have been a bit more friendlier. That of course did not spoil our trip as we rarely spent time indoors. Ennertours I give you 100%

Wonderful!
We loved our Douro tour. It was absolutely amazing. Norberto took us to the most beautiful places. I highly recommend ennetours : )

Personalised, professional and fun! Just perfect!!!
I’m Portuguese and my boyfriend Brazilian. I decided for my bf birthday i wanted to give him a taste of Portugal. I talked to Norberto and made a plan for the day with is suggestions and my suggestions. Norberto was amazing in all the preparations super flexible, easy going and full of great ideas. We had an Amazing day in the Douro valley, Norberto took us to touristic and non touristic spots (that only insiders know), he gave us an overview of the History, economy and social aspects of Douro but always with a hint of fun and witty humour!!! Food was amazing (i’m a vegetarian) and the wine obviously even better!!
I most certainly recommend Ennetours and i’m looking forward for our next trip with Norberto!

Just brilliant!
Me and my girlfriend did a Tour with Norberto in Douro valley. We requested to focus the tour on wine tasting so that’s what we had! From the farm land, to the villas where port wine is produced to the tasting of the regional products. We enjoyed the views with a proper glass of wine in hand, drunk different wine varieties, enjoyed the food from a local restaurant and enjoyed Norberto’s great companionship and free spirited talk.
Thank you Norberto for the great time!

3 Touren in und um Porto

Unsere 1. Tour, Abholung vom Flughafen, hat super geklappt.
Am nächsten Morgen unsere 2. Tour, 4-stündige Stadtführung. Katharina und Norberto haben uns abgeholt und wir haben die Stadt auch abseits von Touristenpfaden erkundet. Wir haben viel über das Land, die Stadt, die Geschichte, das Essen, Geheimtipps erfahren und die beiden machten die Tour spannend, kurzweilig und individuell.
Die 3. Tour führte uns einen ganzen Tag ins Douro Tal mit seinen wunderbaren Aussichten und Weinen. Norberto liebt seine Heimat und weiss einfach viel über Tradition und Geschichte. Das Mittagessen in einem portugiesischem Lokal war hervorragend.
Die beiden haben uns in unserem Urlaub immer wieder mit Ratschlägen versorgt, zB wo man in der Umgebung typisch portugiesische Restaurants findet usw..
Wir können Ennetours 100 % weiterempfehlen!
Liebe Katharina und Norberto, wir haben uns mit euch sehr wohlgefühlt und wir danken euch für eure große Mühe und tolle Stunden in und um Porto.

An amazing Trip!
Together with my best friend we had two tours with Norberto. The first one was in Porto. He showed us of course the big, touristic spots like the Church of Saint Ildefonso or train station Porto São Bento, but he also knew those secret and beautiful places, remote form the masses, where you can enjoy this great city the most having an amazing view on the Ponte Dom Luís I while eating Francesinha. Norberto knows absolutely everything about the city and Portugal itself and could answer us every question we asked. He also told us so many things we wouldn´t even recognized otherwise!
Our second tour was through the Douro Valley. We made a picnic on a hill where we had breath-taking view. The trip took several hours including long time periods sitting in the bus, but it was neither boring nor exhausting. Noberto showed us many spots all over the valley where we could enjoy the moment or take some pictures. We also took part in a wine tour at Sandeman´s (tasting some very delicous Port wines) which was very interesting.
All in all it was a great time in Porto and we both enjoyed the tours a lot! I really can recommend Ennetours as Norberto and Katharina are both very lovely and friendly people who really want you to enjoy your trip the most!

Douro Valley was so beautiful and is a must to see! To start at the top, with the most stunning viewpoints, then slowly going down through the vineyards and wrap it up by visiting one of the vineyards and get to know how the wine is produced as well as taste it was just a perfect way to get to know the wine producing-culture. The car was so comfortable and the guides really knew where to take you to get the best possible experience. And the lunch was really good!
