★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 3,542 reviews · 10 hours (approx.) · from $101Our pick

Review of the Douro Valley tour from Porto, with two winery visits, tastings, lunch, a Rabelo boat ride, and practical booking tips.

“Lovely day out of the city, beautiful drive along the Duro River through the vineyards. Our guide Julianna was knowledgeable, friendly and informative. Tastings, tours, and locations were fun without high pressure sales. Because it was January the boat ride was a little chilly and not as scenic as it would be other times of the year.”

“Everything about this excursion was great! Fantastic communication leading up to it. Both wineries were awesome in their own way. The first was more of a small family business while the second seemed a little "classier." Great views at both. Comfy ride. If you're looking for an escape from the city, I highly recommend!”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,562 reviews · 10 hours (approx.) · from $133

Review of Porto’s Douro Valley wine tour, with three vineyards, Port tastings, a four-course lunch, scenic drives, and practical booking advice.

“The guide, Pedro, was excellent and gave us lots of information. The high point was, I think, the visit to Solar dos Dragos where we tasted both wines and ports. It would have been an added bonus if we coudl have had a tour of part of the vinyard itself - as happens with vinyard/tasting tours in England. Our third stop turned out to be combined with lunch, whereas we thought we would be travelling to another vinyard.”

Review of a small-group Barcelona day trip combining Montserrat, Catalan culture, mountain views, and a Penedès cava tasting.

“Our tour guide Alba was great so informative and a great tour . Alba made sure we saw all the sights on a full days tour. She knew all the history about Montserrat and provided endless details. She arrived at the hotel meeting place on time with a car ready to use on the full day tour. Before Montserrat we toured a winery and sampled 3 great wines. The tour and wine tasting was a fun part of the trip. We could not have seen so much in one day trying to do this tour on our own. With Alba as our guide it made the tour and day so…”

The bus was to quality and the driver was skilled, which was good considering dinner if the tags he had to drive down. Saint Emillion was gorgeous and fascinating. The vineyard was beautiful and our host was brilliant. And the wine, oh the wine, was excellent. I bought a case. Highly recommend this tour especially on a Sunday or Monday.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 438 reviews · from $136

Review of the full-day Marlborough wine tour from Picton or Blenheim, with five wineries, small groups, tastings, lunch, and local guides.

“The tour was phenomenal. Our guide, Gavin, was incredibly knowledgeable about the wine, the wineries, and the region. He made us all feel right at home and helped each of us get more out of the experience with stories about the wineries and the region, and with tips on how to best describe, taste, and enjoy wine. We went to five wineries, each of which was excellent and one of which had an excellent restaurant for lunch. Our tour size was small (four total) and made for a nice, intimate wine tasting experience. I highly recommend this tour, and especially Gavin!”

“Guides were fantastic! However, we thought we werebooking a half day wine tour. It was instead a half day walking tour that ended with a single wine tour. Overall it was a good tour but not as the title described. We wanted an afternoon of wine tastings.”
