Only negative was the air con was Leaking on the bus and we got dripped on- luckily that didn’t spoil the trip tho 😄”

The guides were very knowledgeable, funny, and focused on making sure everyone had what they needed/wanted. Food, wine, and water were provided throughout the day and the river cruise was a gorgeous way to complete the visit before heading back to Lisbon. It was impossible to capture the beauty of the Douro valley with a picture - you have to see it for yourself!Read more”
