Oporto & Douro Moments

Experiência fantástica: My wife and I had a walking tour of Porto with Sara. She is very knowledgeable and a lovely person. Can't go wrong.

Experiência fantástica: Très belle visite de porto avec le guide Carlos qui nous a enchanté

Experiência fantástica: We had two wonderful experiences with Oporto & Douro Moments and cannot recommend them highly enough. On Monday, we joined Sara for a private walking tour of Porto. She was warm, knowledgeable, and truly brought the city to life. We discovered hidden corners and learned details we never would have found on our own. Sara customized the pace perfectly and made the entire experience both fun and informative. On Wednesday, we toured the Douro Valley with her son, João, and it was absolutely fantastic. The highlight was our visit to Quinta do Cume, where we enjoyed exceptional wines and even purchased several bottles to bring home. Lunch at Toca da Raposa was equally memorable—the food was delicious and the owner’s hospitality and sense of fun made it one of the best meals of our trip. Both Sara and João are passionate about what they do, and it shows in the way they share their love for Portugal, its culture, food, and wines. Their family-run company provides a very personal and thoughtful touch, and both tours felt like traveling with local friends rather than guides. We left with unforgettable memories of Porto and the Douro Valley and would encourage anyone considering a tour to book with Oporto & Douro Moments. It was the highlight of our stay in Portugal!

Experiência fantástica: We spent a wonderful day with Joao in the Douro Valley. He is passionate about Portuguese wines and introduced us to varieties unknown to us, by visiting smaller wineries and having an excellent knowledge of the area, history and any other questions we had related to the country. Money well spent for a truly memorable day.

Experiência fantástica: The Douro tour was absolutely fantastic. João is a friendly, knowledgeable, and fun guide that curated a perfect selection of places to visit in the valley. We got to visit winemakers doing some unusual things in the region that we would never have found on our own. This tour exceeded all our expectations. I highly recommend.

Experiência fantástica: I recently visited Porto with my partner Patricia and her parents, and despite the rainy weather, our food and wine tour with Sara from “Oporto and Douro Moments” was fantastic! We also wanted to learn about the history of Porto, and Sara seamlessly blended her extensive knowledge of the city’s past with the delicious food and wine stops along the way. She was warm, engaging, and passionate, making the entire experience both informative and fun. I highly recommend “Oporto and Douro Moments” for anyone looking to enjoy the best of Porto’s cuisine and history!

Experiência fantástica: We had a great day, walking, eating and drinking around Porto . Sara took us to some really interesting place we would never of found. Got to feel the real flavour or Porto.

Experiência fantástica: Amazing experience. Quality company with a fast response time, informative tour and fabulous catered wine tastings with breathtaking views of Douro Valley. A must!

Experiência fantástica: Absolutely the best day! Our guide Luis was awesome. It was a wonderful day. We loved the time in between the wineries as much as the wineries. It was definitely one of our favorite days of our trip. Highly recommend.

Experiência fantástica: We were our first time in Porta and having Sara guide us through the city our first day was a wonderful education and experience. Sara is a joy to be with and very knowledgeable as a former teacher. We did both a walking and food tour .. I highly recommend both. Flora

Experiência fantástica: Super competent, friendly and professional

Experiência fantástica: This small family company are excellent ambassadors for Portugal, offering a wonderful tour guiding experience for a day trip to the Douro Valley from Porto. Nothing was too much trouble. Rui went out of his way to ensure we had a wonderful day. Thanks Sara and Rui!

Experiência fantástica: We have traveled to dozens of countries from Asia, to Europe and the Americas over the last 40 years and have had many guides on those trips of all abilities and qualities. Oporto & Douro Moments stands out as unquestionably one of the best we have ever experienced. The professionalism of the organization was top notch and more importantly the quality of Joao, their guide and the breadth and depth of the tour itself was exceptional. Joao picked us up in Oporto and spent the day with us driving through the Douro Valley. We visited vineyards, wineries, towns, villages, a wonderful restaurant and the mountain tops. His knowledge of Portuguese history was extensive and nuanced and his knowledge of the current state of his country was equally impressive as was his knowledge of Portuguese wines which he was able to put in the context of other European wines of different eras. He was articulate and described his subjects with great forethought. His depth and breadth of knowledge was most impressive as was his engaging manner. Frankly we would recommend Joao and his team without reservation for any thoughtful people who seek to learn and understand this wonderful country and region.

Experiência fantástica: We enjoyed a fantastic trip. The first stop was at Quinta do Cume, a relatively small-scale wine producer, where we witnessed the vinification process and, overlooking the vineyards, tasted the range of white and red wines. The next stop was Quinta de Tourais by the passionate winemaker Gernando Coelho who, also on a modest scale, produces extremely original wines with beautiful labels and painted bottles. The tour ended at Quinta da Pacheca, founded in 1738, and with 75 hectares it is one of the larger producers of white, red and rose wines and port. We enjoyed lunch at the intimate family restaurant Toca da Raposa where we enjoyed original regional dishes, of course accompanied by local wines and locally produced port. Along the way we made a number of stops to admire and capture the beautiful panoramas of this beautiful part of Portugal. João was a great driver and a well-informed guide who informed us during the trip about many details about the Douro area, Portuguese wine culture and life in Portugal. Highly recommended!

Experiência fantástica: Great Experience!

Experiência fantástica: In just three hours Sara provided a superb introduction to Porto on our walking tour. What was extra special was her ability to tailor the wake to our specific interests. A wonderful way to walk the city and learn about its history and culture.

Experiência fantástica: This was an excellent tour guide service. Sara acted as our personal guide for both the 1/2 day walking tour of Porto and then a combined full day tour of GUIMARÃES AND BRAGA. This was truly a pleasure. Sara had all required entrances taken care of and we were able to avoid all queues. She is EXTREMELY knowledgeable and was eager to share history and intermingle stories from the different regions of Portugal through history of mid-evil times and the moors through the Templar’s and the monarchs to the Spanish and English and French and the church’s role, up to the 20th century dictatorship and eventual independence. Her knowledge does not stop at history. She is well versed in the industries including the tile, foods, and of course Port. Selecting a private tour was one of the smartest things we did. Watching the small and large groups try to maneuver and listen through headphones in their crowds was laughable. Being able to tailor the tour to our interests and save time for what we wanted to do was priceless. And Sara took the time to book us a lunch at an exclusive restaurant as well as stop at the end and have coffee with us. I thank Sara and her company for making our trip to Porto wonderful and meaningful.

Experiência fantástica: Sara was amazing. We had the best experience on our walking tour / gastronomic experience! She knew Porto well, knew the best places to go as we ate our way through the city seeing historic locations as well. She is personable, knowledgeable and very fun ! Highly recommend. Her English is perfect!

Experiência fantástica: My partner and I had such a wonderful day with our guide Rui! As we aren't fond of big, crowded tours, we were looking for something private just for the two of us, and thats exactly whay we got. We took the Douro Wine Lovers Tour and truly enjoyed the place we visited. This a tour that I definitely recommend, and that I'll also recommend to my friends back home if they ever visit Portugal. Obrigada! :)

Experiência fantástica: My cousin and I took a private tour to the Douro Valley. João was was so kind and knowledgeable. This was definitely the highlight of our time in Porto. Thank you so much for an unforgettable day!

Experiência fantástica: My husband and I had a lovely day in the Douro valley. We stayed in Porto and wanted to visit the valley, but didn't want to be thrown into a general tour. We opted for a private tour and couldn't have been happier with what 'Moments' provided. We were picked up at our hotel and driven to the valley stopping in an old small village, and more unique and quaint vineyards (at our request). We had private tastings and tours which allowed us to ask questions, and to keep to our own timeline. Our tour guide was incredibly knowledgable and his English was outstanding. We will recommend this tour to our friends and family. Thank you, Oporto & Douro Moments!

Experiência fantástica: We had a great day in Douro Valley together with João from Oporto & Douro Moments. Well-planned schedule, flexible and service minded with a high level of knowledge. Highly recommended!

Experiência fantástica: Look no further! Definitely book a tour with Oporto & Douro Moments. Believe the 5-Star reviews, we did and couldn't be happier with our day in the Douro Valley.

Thank you for creating a special day with memories for a lifetime.

Experiência fantástica: Excelente

Experiência fantástica: We love our Oporto Tripe. Sara was a wonderful guide! She knows Oporto like her hands! Her Oporto culture is very deep! She is very kind and adapt to our limitations! We recommend a lote this company to do any kind of tripe in Oporto city! We visited the bests places in the city! And in all the streets we had an interesting / cultural history about everthing! Her English his perfect! Thank you very much!!

Experiência fantástica: João hands down made my honeymoon something special with his expertise and timeliness. We had such a great day and made a great friend on our travels. Honestly you regret not booking with this team.

Experiência fantástica: My wife and I took a tour with Oporto & Douro Moments as part of our 1 year anniversary trip. João was a wonderful tour guide, talking about the culture and area as we drove to Douro valley from Porto and his connections with the vineyards enabled us to have open conversations with the owners and winemakers. The pick-up and drop-off was smooth and on-time. We could not recommend this more and would definitely consider a tour with this group again if we are back in the Porto area.

Experiência fantástica: Sara and John were so wonderful! We booked them last minute because we wanted a tour of the duro valley but had to get Covid tests, they planned everything and worked around our schedule. The tour itself was wonderful we went to an amazing winery and a small town. They also helped us with dinner plans as well! Such a wonderful tour it will be a memory we won’t forget!

Experiência fantástica: São uma empresa exemplo com alto profissionalismo. Pretendem sempre dar o melhor para que o cliente tenha uma experiência inesquecível. Agradeço à Sara e o Rui todo o cuidado que tiveram durante o Tour em proporcionar momentos únicos. Recomendo sem dúvida nenhuma esta empresa.

Experiência fantástica: Our tour with Oporto & Douro was the highlight of our trip to Portugal. Sara was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and fun! We enjoyed our private tours to vineyards and felt like we were seeing things that no one else would see without an amazing guide like Sara. I would give Sara and her company 10 stars if I could!

Experiência fantástica: Sara was an excellent host, speaking impeccable English, and with a natural warmth and infectious enthusiasm for the region, its wines and its culture. We had a wonderful day enjoying the sights and tastes of this beautiful valley.

Experiência fantástica: I took two days tours with Sara. It all started that my wife was working with one of the hotels, and I wanted to see different aspects of Porto. They recommend Sara. I had three hours that gave me more appreciation and love to Porto that I could receive from anyone else. She was the best tour guide I ever had ( and I traveled a lot). After the first tour. I told my wife that I would love to go to the Duro Valley, but only if Sara was available. She was and we spent a fantastic and memorable day. I absolutely loved where she took and what I have seen. Sara is first of all very personal and above all very knowledgeable. I truly recommend her as an incredible person and outstanding tour guide.

Todos os prémios que o nosso país arrecada, têm por trás profissionais como ela. Recomendo vivamente os seus serviços. Da minha parte, só tenho a agradecer e que pena tenho de só haver 5 estrelas.
