The Real
Douro.
Small groups. Family quintas. A river cruise, a 1735 manor, and a guide who was born here. This is not a tour — it's an introduction.
Not a bus tour.
A local secret.
Most Douro tours take you to the big commercial wineries. We take you somewhere else — to the families who have farmed these terraces for generations.
Antonio Rodrigues, born and raised in the Douro, guides every tour personally. Maximum 7 guests. No rush. No script.

Every detail,
thoughtfully chosen.
Family Quintas
Two boutique, family-owned wine estates where the producers welcome you personally.
Panoramic Views
The terraced Douro landscape is one of Europe's most dramatic. We stop at the best viewpoints.
River Cruise
A one-hour cruise on the Douro — see the valley from the water, a view most visitors never get.
1735 Manor Lunch
A magical lunch at a historic manor house. Simple food, unforgettable setting.
The Douro is not just a wine region. It is a way of life — and I want you to feel that.
I grew up in Godim, in the heart of the Douro Valley. These roads, these families, these wines — I have known them all my life. When you join one of my tours, you are not just a visitor. You are a guest of the valley.
Tours depart from Porto or Peso da Régua — you choose.
