“Best Day of Our Honeymoon
Alfredo has the best job ever, and he created the best day of our honeymoon! We spent 2 amazing weeks on the road, and we were completely over wow'd everywhere we went. Then we met Alfredo for our private tour tasting and lunch, and had the best day ever. Alfredo used what little he knew about us to kicked off our day with the perfect small batch wine marler, Luis. Then as he learned more about us, he tailored the rest of the day to mirror our passion for discovering the Douro Valley.
In addition, Alfredo is an excellent driver. Those winding, hilly roads are not easy to navigate and he expertly managed them in a downpour.
My husband and I HIGHLY recommend Alfredo and team, and are already planning our next adventure with him.
Cheers!”

“10 out of 10 recommend Alfredo for anything in Portugal!
Alfredo was a delight! ! I traveled to Portugal for the first time and visited Lisbon, Porto and the Douro Valley… I found Alfredo through trip advisor and booked the Douro Valley day trip to visit wine cellars, have lunch and take a boat trip on the river. The Douro valley is a must see, and you'd be silly if Alfredo didn't guide you! It took him less than 5 minutes to understand my group dynamic and really understand us and our needs. He was very knowledgeable and respectful. He took us to places we would never have visited on our own which was truly amazing. I would HIGHLY recommend him, and I know that when I return to Portugal, Alfredo will definitely give us recommendations and take us to several villages to explore and truly see the culture of Portugal!”

“Absolutely Wonderful Douro Valley Tour
out de 2022
Really happy with our choice to book a private Douro Valley tour with Alfredo and Tourvent. Alfredo picked us up in a very nice van with plenty of room for four adults. He provided just the right amount of Portugal history mixed with wine, grape and Douro Valley information. He has chosen some really wonderful vineyards for this tour and we really enjoyed the opportunity to connect with the actual owners/winemakers of the vineyards. Plus, a private boat tour as well which we really enjoyed! We didn't run into any other tour groups during the day and that is exactly what we had hoped for! By far our favorite part of our trip to Portugal. Douro Valley is beautiful and a tour with Tourvent is the way to see it for sure!”

“A Definite Portugal Highlight!
out de 2022
I can’t say enough about the day my husband and I spent touring the Douro Valley! It was amazing! Our tour guide, Alfredo, was the absolute best. He was a wealth of knowledge - just an all around excellent guide. His attention to detail and desire to give us a “first class tour” of the region was evident right from the start of the tour. We visited 3 lovely wineries, had a delicious lunch and a private boat ride on the Douro River. I highly recommend Tourvent!”
