Overall the trip was very good, the village we visited was picturesque, we stopped at some fantastic viewing points for pictures and the lunch far exceeded our expectations. The one down point was the river cruise that was quite short with no commentary.

Una experiencia muy gratificante. El cicerone, Diego Cornejo, un gran profesional, amable, receptivo, atento siempre pendiente del grupo; una maravilla de persona muy bien preparada y que se nota que ama su profesión. La visita a las bodegas fue muy interesante así como pasear por los viñedos acompañados por una guía local; el trayecto en el barco, relajante. Una excursión de 9,95 ya que todo es mejorable.

Very good visit, very complete, the Duero Valley, exceptionally beautiful. The very adequate lunch and the cruise along the Duero River, full of landscapes of the vineyards, not to be missed. Finally, the visit to the Porto winery was very detailed and included a tasting of 3 types of really good quality Port. This tour is worth it anyway. Our guide and our driver were very attentive and professional. Everything was very good. Opinion translated. Show original.

A região é muito bonita, paisagens deslumbrantes. O guia nos informou perfeitamente sobre a atividade vinícola da região,sua história e contou algumas curiosidades. Um bom restaurante, onde foi servido um almoço de boa qualidade. Único senão foi o curto tempo de visita a vinícola. Translate this opinion into English.

Paisagens deslumbrantes! Muito bom. No entanto, quanto ao almoço não posso avaliar da mesma forma, só havia carne de porco, acabei comendo vegetariano, batata e repolho, acredito que deveriam haver opções para que o cliente pudesse escolher. De resto, tudo maravilhoso! Translate this opinion into English.

Stunning landscapes! Very good. However, as for lunch I cannot evaluate it in the same way, there was only pork, I ended up eating vegetarian, potatoes and cabbage, I believe there should be options for the customer to choose from. Otherwise, everything was wonderful! Opinion translated. Show original.

La visite s’est très bien déroulée ,le guide Philippe excellent donnant des indications précises et répondant pertinemment à nos questions .Cependant la publicité est mensongère quant il est indiqué qu’on passera vous prendre à l’hôtel et ensuite on vous répond que c’est impossible ce n’est pas professionnel.La croisière sur le Douro est très appréciable,dommage que le personnel à bord manque de chaleur,même pas bonjour ni au revoir et également manque d’indications.Merci Philippe.

Nous avons confirmé que, pour des raisons de disponibilité, il n'a pas été possible de venir vous chercher. Nous sommes désolés que l'expérience n'ait pas été à la hauteur de vos espérances à cet égard. Nous sommes heureux que vous ayez apprécié la visite malgré cela.

Passeio excelente. Fomos com o Guia Arnaldo, que diga de passagem merece nota 11. Atencioso, explicou muitas coisas (tem uma bagagem cultural grande), dirigiu de forma exemplar, foi gentil e atencioso. Passeio com tempo de apreciar os locais visitados. Almoço excelente, com vinho da casa a vontade. Degustação final de vinho do Porto ótima! Recomendo demais.

Fue una excursión muy completa, con lugares preciosos (la bodega, el río Duero, la finca en la que comimos...) David, nuestro excelente guía, se dedicó en cuerpo y alma al grupo, explicando todos los elementos del viaje.

Muchas gracias, David. Y el grupo también era muy majo. Translate this opinion into English.

Estupenda, bien guiados por nuestro guía Antonio y llevados por nuestro chófer Orlando. Ambos hicieron de nuestra excursión una experiencia agradable y divertida. Éramos los dos únicos españoles del grupo y estuvieron pendientes de nosotros y de que estuviéramos siempre informados, sin perder detalle de nada. El crucero y la visita a la bodega perfectos y la comida genial, en el exterior de otra bodega muy acogedora, con unas vistas privilegiadas. Orlando nos amenizó con buena música el trayecto Translate this opinion into English.

Great, well guided by our guide Antonio and taken by our driver Orlando. They both made our excursion a fun and enjoyable experience. We were the only two Spaniards in the group and they were aware of us and that we were always informed, without missing a thing. The perfect cruise and visit to the winery and great food, outside another very cozy winery, with privileged views. Orlando entertained us with good music on the way Opinion translated.

Tour muito bem organizado, com um guia super atencioso (Joao). Almoço gostoso num restaurante com uma bela vista - próximo ao mirante de Galafura. Trajeto feito por pontos lindíssimos. A visita à quinta da Roeda é muito interessante mas um detalhe que do meu ponto de vista poderia ficar ainda melhor seria incluir a degustação de azeites e alguns queijos, torradinhas e um docinho para acompanhar os vinhos. Translate this opinion into English.

Very well organized tour, with a super attentive guide (Joao). Delicious lunch at a restaurant with a beautiful view - close to the Galafura viewpoint. Path made by beautiful points. The visit to Quinta da Roeda is very interesting but one detail that, from my point of view, could be even better would be to include the tasting of olive oils and some cheeses, toast and a sweet to accompany the wines.

Tour muy recomendable, tanto por los lugares que visitas (muy bonitos) como por la guía y el chofer (María y Joao), se merecen un 9,5 sobre 10. No así la empresa que lo organiza Living Tours (Gray Line). Tratándose de un tour caro solicitado en castellano, nos pusieron en un autocar de 30 personas de las que solo 4 hablábamos en castellano y el resto en inglés. Dado el precio, la empresa tenía que haber avisado antes, y dar la opción de cambiar de día o de retornar el dinero. Translate this opinion into English.

Highly recommended tour, both for the places you visit (very beautiful) and for the guide and driver (María and Joao), they deserve a 9.5 out of 10. Not so the company that organizes Living Tours (Gray Line). Being an expensive tour requested in Spanish, they put us in a coach of 30 people of which only 4 spoke Spanish and the rest in English. Given the price, the company should have notified before, and give the option to change the day or return the money. Opinion translated. Show original.

El tour es de los mejores que hemos hecho. Diría que es imprescindible hacerlo. Ver el paisaje del valle del Duero y sus viñedos es algo maravilloso. Imposible explicarlo con palabras. El almuerzo incluído estuvo muy bueno. El restaurante en un lugar hermoso, con una vista espectacular. Luego la visita al viñedo, la cata de vinos estuvo muy buena. Y al final el crucero por el Duero maravilloso! Nuestro guía fue Elder, ha sido excelente! Muy recomendable! Translate this opinion into English.

The tour is one of the best we've ever done. I would say that it is essential to do so. Seeing the landscape of the Douro Valley and its vineyards is something wonderful. Impossible to explain it with words. The included lunch was very good. The restaurant in a beautiful place, with a spectacular view. Then the visit to the vineyard, the wine tasting was very good. And at the end the wonderful Douro cruise! Our guide was Elder, he has been excellent! Highly recommended! Opinion translated. Show original.

Le guide était plein de bonne volonté, très gentil et à l’écoute mais il manque fortement de vocabulaire français. C’est très dommage car on se lasse vite de l’écouter Faites en sorte qu’il évolue dans le bon sens, donnez-lui des cours Translate this opinion into English.

The guide was full of good will, very nice and attentive but he lacks a lot of French vocabulary. It's a shame because you quickly get tired of listening to it Make sure it evolves in the right direction, give it lessons Opinion translated. Show original.

Our trip to the Douro valley from Porto was very well-organised, well-lead, informative, and extremely enjoyable. Our guide, Mario, was truly excellent, with wonderful repartee and good answers to questions. and our driver, Silvino, was also exemplary, since he guided us away from traffic delays (caused by some accident) on our way back to Porto, thereby saving us at least an hour sitting in stationary traffic. All in all, a really good tour which I'd strongly recommend to anyone interested.

Muy dinámica y entretenida, lo recomiendo para los amantes del vino y sus orígenes. Necesitan mejorar en hacer grupos homogéneos en cuanto al lenguaje, todos los viajes con civitatis pasa lo mismo, el guía se sorprende cuando se da cuenta que son grupos de distinta habla.

Very dynamic and entertaining, I recommend it for lovers of wine and its origins. They need to improve in making groups homogeneous in terms of language, the same thing happens on all trips with civitatis, the guide is surprised when he realizes that they are groups of different speech.
