Since 2001, the Alto Douro Wine Region has been inscribed by UNESCO on the list of World Heritage Sites as an evolving and living landscape because it has been, over the centuries, modeled by man who designed terraces, tore roads, domesticated the river and produced the wine that the world over. know and appreciate.

We had a fantastic experience with Mario! He arranged to pick us up at our rental which was quite far away from their usual area in Regua, and despite the rainy weather we had a lovely day visiting two different quintas for wine/port tastings as well as an amazing lunch. Mario is very knowledgable of everything in the area and has great insights into the wine business having worked in it for years. Highly recommend this experience!

We had an excellent full day tour with Mário Mesquita Montes while visiting the Douro valley. Mario was very knowledgeable and we learned a lot about the area from him. He took us to a wonderful location for viewing the Douro Valley. Our tour then included a visit to two wineries, a wonderful authentic Portuguese lunch and a 1 hour boat cruise along the Douro river. It was a wonderful day and I highly recommend this company

Mario picked us up promptly at our planned arranged time. Just my wife and I, we got into his very clean van and proceeded from Vidago headed south. Along the way, our guide, in excellent English, described our plan for the day and all during the day filled us in on historic anecdotes relating to our locations and regarding Portugal in general.
Once we got to wine country Mario discussed the wine industry in depth. After all he was a wine maker and seller when he was younger. Very knowledgeable.
We stopped at two Quintas for tastings and had lunch in a charming small town along the route for an excellent meal. It was one of our best meal in the ten days we were in the country.
Prior to our drive back "home" we sailed Rio Douro.
We felt safe all day. We would recommend Mario to anyone for a great day along the Douro River for a Grade A wine tour.

Our group of 6 people used one beautiful and educative day in Douro valley with Mario from Douro Valley Tours as our guide. There was a morning pick-up from Porto and nice one houre+ drive to the river in a comfortable clean van. With Mario we visited two wine yards (Quintas), one as the only group and one with some others. Both were very interesting and different profile targets and gave an inside view to wine industry in Douro. Lunch was excellent, local food and wines of course. At the end we had a relaxing bot trip on the river. Mario was a real expert on all issues from history to every day life in Douro and Porto. This was a real top experience during our one week Porto trip. Thank you Mario.
