Private Tour in the Douro from Porto: Wine Tasting and Lunch

About this experience

Your morning begins with the exclusivity of a private transport and concierge. The route leads us up the golden road, through the cities and villages of the Douro Superior.
We will open the doors of a historic Quinta for a private visit, touring the vineyards that produce some of the world’s most award-winning wines. You will have the privilege of a guided taste, exploring the complexity of the grapes Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca and Tinta Roriz, complemented by the tasting of an Olive from the region, recognized for its purity and character.
At lunch, you will sit at the table in a selected setting, where the traditional flavors of the region are harmonized with the best wines of the house.
The afternoon Reservation is a cultural stop at iconic viewpoints and historic villages, where architecture merges with stone and the history of Port Wine becomes tangible. Let yourself be engaged by the grandiosity of the Superior Douro before we begin the return, with the soul filled with the colors and textures of this unique region.
