Had a great experience in the walking tour, and as a Portuguese I learned a lot of things about the history and the origin of some of the things we normally take for granted in this beautiful country of ours. Thank you Catavino.

My wife and I did a full day, private Douro Valley wine tour with Ryan and it was fantastic! I recommend using Ryan's company to anyone. Ryan picked us up at our AirBnB and drove us to the Douro Valley. We learned a ton of Douro Valley and Portuguese history, which was exactly what we wanted. He was personable and we were completely comfortable in his company the whole time. We went to two amazing vineyards and had a blast seeing how the wines were made, meeting the owners (who are so very nice!), and tasting some excellent wine. We had a lovely lunch in between both vineyards at a small, yet excellent, restaurant. Honestly, this was absolutely worth the money and I'd do it again in a second.In addition to our Douro Valley wine tour, we did a half-day food and culture tour in Porto with Jose Silva - all organized by Ryan's company. That was a great experience as well - again, I highly recommend. I'd never done an organized tour like this even though I have travelled extensively and lived in Europe for almost 15 years. We have another 1/2 day food and culture tour in Lisbon and we're really looking forward to it.If you want an extremely high quality, relaxed, personable, attentive tour given by locals, you should absolutely check out Catavino Tours. The whole team will take care of you - nothing to worry about at all. More than worth the money!Derek

Just spent a wonderful day in the Douro wine region with the Catavino team and a local winemaker. We had breathtaking views of a side of the Douro that most visitors don't get to see, knowledgeable explanations of the grapes, wines and processes and of course, delicious table and port wines, some poured straight from the barrel. The highlight of the day was the chance to join the Purple Foot Club by treading grapes in stone tanks.
