Douro legacy Wine Tour & Sommelier-Wineries,Lunch & River Cruise

9 hours (approximately)

Offered in: Portuguese and 1 more

Meet your guide, chauffeur and sommelier: Daniel is a WSET certified sommelier, working for 20+ years in Portugal and the UK in Michelin Star and other fine dining restaurants.

He has been working for over 8 years doing wine tours in the Douro and noted there was a lack of premium experiences that connected guests to the land they visited. Over the years, he has built relationships with premium family-owned estates and has personally curated his offerings at two different price points. Both offer exclusive and private tours with no large buses, vans, or crowds of people, just you, Daniel and his personal vehicle taking you through stunning scenery and teaching you the history, geography and unique climate of the Douro valley and the wonderful food and drink it produces.

The Douro has many tours, but only one Legacy. Don’t just see history—own it. Become the Guardian
