- I will start by saying that I cried when I had to leave Portugal and come back to the real world of our home in the USA. Portugal and its people really found a big place in my heart and even as I write this weeks later I long to go back and I even feel a little ache in my heart because I had to leave.Catavino Tours was wonderful. Every single tour guide and driver was fantastic, knowledgeable and a real pleasure to deal with. And every single hotel and restaurant was top-notch.I highly recommend Catavino Tours, their attention to detail and their attentiveness made our vacation the BEST vacation ever. They made our first time in Portugal easy.OH! And the Trip Plans APP with the details of our itinerary is a great added feature as well. The APP made it easy to keep track of what was next.read moreread lessSoni Kennedy6/29/2022Ana was terrific in providing us with the best experience possible.

Echoing the comments of the previous reviews below, my wife and I experienced one memorable experience topped each day by the next memorable experience. A week of friendship, learning and interacting all in an environment that was stimulating and stress free. Kudos to Catavino for a wonderful and supremely well organized trip.read moreread less
David Waldschmidt10/15/2017 - The Catavino team is amazing! We planned a trip to Portugal at beginning of Covid and had to cancel - not knowing when we might be able to reschedule. On short notice, we rebooked our trip this Fall..... Different time of year, different timeline of stay, and different request. Ryan, Ana, and the whole team made it perfectly seamless. It was completely worry free and stress free. There is no way we would have experienced Portugal to the extent we did, if we planned on our own. You know they have it the mark when my 25 year old son said " They created memorable experiences, not just tours"!!read moreread lessDan Redpath10/25/2021Recently back from a Fall Harvest Wine & Food Tour in northern Portugal. Ryan and his team of angels of Catavino created an absolute exceptional itinerary for our group of 10 from Minnesota. From our first winery visit to grape stomping to our splendid view from our hotel in the Douro Valley, the Catavino team left no details behind. We were treated like esteemed guests everywhere we went and even treated like family is more like it! I'm going through withdrawal and plan to go back with the whole family in the near future. One of our guests summed it up like this during one of our lunches, "Patti, I feel like I've died and gone to heaven. Just when I think I had the best day ever, the next day is even better!" I highly recommend anyone, whether it's the two of you or a group, to look no further than Ryan and Catavino who will customize and personalize an itinerary that will surprise and delight you beyond your wildest dreams. Amenread moreread less
Patti Berg Judalena10/20/2018Highly recommend the Catavino tour The History of Portugal in 5 Glasses, exploring streets of Porto and learning hidden facts and stories about daily portuguese pleasures, like drinking tea, coffee, beer and wine. Even as a local, had a great experience in my own city, and at the end can only raise my glass and say Cheers to these beautiful moments. Thank you Catavino!read moreread less
