Porto: Douro Valley Small-Group Tour – 2 Wineries, Cruise & Lunch

Hi everyone, I’m Jonny! I started my own small tour company to share the Douro Valley in a relaxed, personal and authentic way. My philosophy is simple: quality over quantity. That’s why I keep my groups small, with only 4–8 guests, and work with carefully selected local partners. We start with a guided visit to a local winery, learning about the Douro and tasting different Douro and Port wines. Next, relax on a one-hour boat cruise and enjoy some of the valley’s most beautiful landscapes. For lunch, we visit a second winery for a traditional Portuguese meal with starters, main course and dessert, accompanied by local wine. Along the way, we’ll stop at some of my favourite viewpoints for photos and to enjoy the incredible scenery. Tours are usually in English or German, with occasional bilingual tours depending on the group. Everything is carefully planned, but never rushed. Small groups, local partners and a personal Douro experience. Hope to see you soon! Jonny :)
