This experience was amazing and Albano was friendly and super knowledgeable about the Douro Valley. The car ride was smooth and had wifi, water, treats, etc. Albano took us to... read more some breathtaking view points in the Douro, and we sampled Port wine at beautiful wineries. You should book this experience - you will not be disappointed! Thank you, Albano!
October 13, 2022We had an amazing day trip to the Duoro Vally. Along the way Albano stopped at some small towns which were really pretty and we had time to have... read more a coffee or visit museums. Nothing was too much trouble for Albano. He was very flexible, including extra places we were interested in visiting. It was a very hot day and it was great to see Albano waiting for us after our visits to wineries or lunch with an air conditioned car, water and lollies! Albano is an excellent driver and we felt safe and secure all day. We would highly recommend Albano for your experiences. It was a totally stress free day. Thankyou Albano.
July 15, 2019This was a wonderful trip and an absolute must do when visiting Porto! The entire experience is a day trip and you learn so much about the Duoro Valley and... read more it’s history. Albano also provides some unique personal touches to the trip including a visit to a private property with amazing views and small collection of the history of the area and tricycles. Albano made the day trip easy and comfortable and there wasn’t any time we felt rushed. It was an experience my family and I were able to soak up in a relaxing way. If you have places/locations to see in the Duoro Valley Albano is very willing to accommodate the itinerary. He also takes the best pictures! 10/10 experience!

Sérieux c' est gravé dans ma mémoire.
Encore un gros Merci Albano du fond de mon coeur!

Albano gave us such a lovely tour of the Douro Valley - it was the perfect balance of planned and spontaneous, and we really enjoyed his selection of less touristic... read more spots and more off the beaten track stops. We can't recommend his tour enough, and he was very personable and easy to talk to all day.
May 21, 2022Such a fun trip and Albano was a great host who really let us take our time to enjoy the day. It was stress free and a great way to... read more catch up with an old friend.
