Delfine is THE ABSOLUTE BEST! She is such an amazing person and has great energy. She picked us up on time and the entire day was just fabulous in every way. She felt like family and treated us like we knew eachother for a long time. She had so much knowledge about Duoro and the wineries we went were stunning and had amazing wine. Delfine made sure we were taken care of every step of the way and the restaurant for lunch was superb too! Great service all around and I would do this tour over and over! We got to meet some amazing people at the wineries. Delfine is a friend for life!!!! If you book this you will be so happy and delighted. Book now! Ask for Delfine, she’s a GEM!!!!

Totally worth it! Very easy to use and super mich to see. Just get the voucher online, get the ticket from the bus driver and drive around two days. On the first day I did the two bus tours - one for the old town and the one that goes along the coast line. Was very nice & the audio guide gave a lot of information on history and culture. Also very easy to do the boat tour. Just go to the Cais da Estiva & show your ticket. For the wine tasting just call them in the morning when you want to visit them & show the ticket there. Was super easy, very nice :)

Very cost effective, interesting way of seeing sites in Porto. Would recommend. Busses can be useful for getting around not just for doing the trips. Not all ports work on the busses unfortunately.

It was the best money I spent over in porto between the yellow bus and the metro its the way to get around.

Our guide Ivo was awesome. We highly recommend the private tour.
