The thing is it wouldn't be the same as having all the knowledge of your local expert tour guide for culture and wine, in a personal experience. Passing incredible landscapes on the way to the Douro Valley wine region, you will be entertained with amazing details about the area, the culture and of course, Port and Douro wines.
It's not just the landscape. It's what's behind the stage, the details, the facts, the people, and all this with fun, friendship and a lot of humour in between.
