The Experience
Based at a hotel in the heart of Porto, you'll explore the region through four private guided experiences.
Douro Valley & Port Wine: A full-day private guided journey into the breathtaking Douro Valley, the birthplace of Port wine and the world's oldest protected wine region. Taste your way through Ruby, Tawny, and Vintage Ports, visit a family-run Quinta, enjoy a family-style lunch, and cap it off with a scenic boat ride on the river.
Porto Walking Tour: A guided stroll through Porto's historic streets, taking in the Cathedral, Clérigos Tower, São Bento station, and the famed Lello Bookshop, finished off with a chocolate and wine pairing.
Vintage & Port Wine Food Tour: An intimate, locally-hosted food tour through Porto's culinary history, paired with a private Port wine masterclass straight from small-scale producers, not the big brands.
Vinho Verde Wine Experience: A full-day tour into the Vinho Verde region, visiting one of Portugal's largest Vinho Verde producers (with award-winning gardens) and a small family-owned estate producing rare red Vinho Verde, plus a home-style lunch featuring regional Minho cuisine.
