The wine wasn't served by the glass but in a plastic cup for a tasting, and they didn't even offer the courtesy of taking a photo. I probably won't do this again.

Med was a great tour guide and he shared interesting background on the Douro Valley and its wineries, which made the trip more meaningful. He stopped at a lovely family-style lunch spot, and as someone from Myanmar, I have to say the rice was 💯 delicious! He also explained the train station tiles in a really engaging way. All in all, he gave us excellent suggestions for food and wine tasting. Highly recommend!

A perfect 50-minute escape on the water. The scenery was beautiful from start to finish, and huge thanks to Ivo, our guide, for the engaging and informative commentary, and to Sergio, our boat driver, for a smooth and relaxing ride. And the price? Honestly couldn’t ask for better.
