- Just been on a fabulous trip with Catavino to the Upper Douro. Getting to enjoy the unique landscape and discover some hidden secrets of the wine-maker's art, all in excellent and expert company. Recommended.read moreread lessSalt Translations6/19/2018Yesterday we had the chance to visit a few places in the Douro with Catavino. We had the chance to meet one very young producer (Oscar Quevedo: thanks!) who did a complete tour through one of his vineyards and educated us on the different types of grapes the Douro has to offer and how the wine in this winery is made. The highlight was a great food experience in the winery while staring at the amazing Douro landscape, while sipping whites, red and port wine from the same house.

We visited two wineries, had a lovely outdoor lunch overlooking the Douro River, and had a fantastic driver and guide in Carlos. There was excellent communication from Catavino throughout. Would highly recommend using Catavino's services.read moreread lessMaxwell Otte9/30/2022
- What an amazing trip with a fantastic group of people. It was an education about wine we couldn't have experienced anywhere else. Our guide, Ryan Opaz, was extremely knowledgable and brought great enthusiasm to the experience.read moreread lessDebbie Tarnow Getlin10/16/2017Outstanding day trip from Porto with Catavino! We spent a day off the beaten path in the Douro wine region and its spectacular scenery. We visited a winery where the vintner gave us the most authentic and informative tour of the vineyards and wine cellar we have had. We tasted this year’s new wine and port from a 10,000-liter cask. We had a gourmet lunch with wines perfectly paired. Our tour was in the harvest season and we were able to participate in the traditional stomping of grapes in a granite lagar. It was a fun time for all! Catavino and team know the area and vintners well, and this made our day truly special.read moreread lessTom Fakler6/19/2018The 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 Redpath10/25/2021
