Passeio privado ao Alto Douro

“Highlight of our trip Our Douro Valley wine tour with Alfredo was without a doubt the highlight of our 14 day tour through Portugal. Alfredo’s knowledge and passion for what he does is truly fascinating. The Douro Valley has many stunning views and Quintas where excellent wine is produced. What we liked about Alfredo’s tour is that he took us to an array of vineyards, from local family owned to established estates. Best wine tour in Douro Valley.”

“Truly Amazing Douro Experience After having done many tours via Viator, and other apps, we have found that it is not very enjoyable. You never know what group you're going to get, and it can get crowded and frustrating. Via word of mouth we received Alfredo's contact information and could not be happier that we did. We only had 2 short days in Porto, but wanted to make the most of our time. The full day education and wine tasting (with 3 course lunch) in the Douro was amazing and exceeded all expectations. We were picked up promptly at our hotel in Porto Gaia, and embarked on our journey. On the roughly 1.5 hour trip Alfredo educated us on the history of the region, wine making, trading, regulation, etc. Our first stop was truly one of the most amazing winery tours/tastings we had ever done at Gueda (Casa de Romezal). Very personal and quaint. Luis is a true gem. Quinta da Pacheca was our next stop and was also amazing, where we were served an outstanding 3 course lunch. Our last stop provided the best views of the Valley - Quinta do Pego...I almost forgot the 1 hour boat ride up the Douro was breathtaking. Our expectations were exceeded in almost every aspect of the trip. We HIGHLY recommend Alfredo for any adventure. He has decades in the hostpitality space, and it shows!”

“This full day tour is absolutely incredible and a must when you are in the Douro Valley. To start off, Alfredo is not only very knowledgeable about wine and the region itself, but also very polite and considerate. Furthermore, we were recommended to do this tour by friends of ours who highly regarded the tour. About the tour itself. Alfredo met us at our hotel and drove us to the first winery. On the way, we stopped at various lookout points and he enhanced our knowledge about the wine region and its history. Our first stop was Gueda Wines. This selection for the first stop was incredible. At this stop, we tasted various wines (white/red, as well as port wines) and had our own individual charcuterie boards to pair with the wine. Following the tasting, we went into the vineyard and our guide talked in great detail about their family history, maintenance of the vines, harvesting, etc. We then headed to Ferradosa, which is a farm to table restaurant. We were amazed by the delicious meal and wine pairing. Not to mention, it had amazing views of the Douro River. During our 10-day trip to Portugal, this was by far our favorite traditional restaurant. Moreover, when the waiter brought each course to the table, he explained in detail what we were eating, where the ingredients are from in the Douro Valley, and how it pairs with the specific wine that we were given. We then headed to Messias Wine Cellar next. This was one of the highlights of the tour. In this 200+ year old cellar, we sampled old port wine directly from the barrel and were given a tour of the cellar. During this stop, we learned in great detail about the history of port wine and how it is made. This is an experience that I will always remember! The last stop of the tour was at Quinta Do Pego. Once again, it was a great selection by Alfredo that included red wine and port wine. Alfredo took the time to explain what wine we were drinking at this stop, what it pairs with, etc. It is evident that after many years of business, Alfredo has carefully selected what wineries and restaurant he brings his guests to. My wife and I were very thankful about that. Furthermore, at each stop, it was private and as a result, we were not mixed in with other wine tours. We are so happy that we decided to do this tour and it was by far the highly of our 10-day trip to Portugal. If you are in the region, then we highly recommend this tour!!!”
