“Our day tour was fantastic! Our guide, “Jesus,” was incredibly engaging and enjoyable. Each winery offered a unique experience and the knowledgeable staff provided a wealth of information about port wine. We also learned fascinating details about the wine regions and their distinct characteristics and some historical insights from our guide. The cancelled boat tour due to the weather was perfectly compensated with extra wine. Overall, it was a wonderful way to conclude our trip in Porto.”

“Great experience. Even with weather disruptions everything was handled well. Our tour guide Rita was friendly, funny and great to learn from and travel with. She also gave some heart-felt life advice I didn't expect but needed to hear. It really made my trip to Porto special. My only regret has nothing to do with the tour, but I had an upset stomach the days prior to the tour and I'm so sad I didn't get to fully drown myself with delicious port wine because of it. I'll be back though. Need to do the river cruise when it's not raining ( my fault for picking a rainy season to…”

Porto: Torre dos Clerigos Entrance Ticket

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 6,395 reviews · 30 min · from $11

Climb Porto’s Torre dos Clérigos, then explore the Igreja dos Clérigos collections. Skip the line, enjoy 225-step panoramic views.

“You need to exchange your online voucher for a physical ticket so it’s worth going a little earlier to do that. The view is stunning - there’s two levels of the tower and I almost missed the entrance to the second one so be mindful! It is a bit of a tight squeeze, especially because people are going up and down at the same time but if you’re mindful it’s fine.”

Porto: Guided Tour by Tuk-Tuk & Optional Douro River Cruise

9.Guided Tour by Tuk-Tuk & Optional Douro River Cruise

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 5,980 reviews · 50 - 105 minutes · from $20

Electric tuk-tuk tour of Porto’s top sights plus an optional Douro cruise on a rabelo boat, with great guide stories.

“The guide Antonio was very knowledgeable and he was making an extra effort to make the ride as smooth as possible in a Tuk Tuk. To improve: when purchasing the river cruise, it needs to be clear that you actually receive a voucher for a boat and that you have to get yourself to the boat after completing the ride. Luckily, we did not have anything planned for the next 3 hours so that we managed to complete the boat ride.”

Small-group Douro day trip from Porto with 2 winery tastings, Portuguese lunch, and a Pinhão Rabelo river cruise.

“Amazing experience!! Pedro, our tour guide, was extremely knowledgeable about wine, the Douro Valley, and Porto as well. He had great insight on our day in the valley as well as what to do around Porto as well! The quintas we went to were amazing and not one's we may have chosen on our own without the insight of the company/guide. Both had great wine and one had olive oil as well! The boat tour portion was chilly but super scenic on the river. Lunch was an amazing family style with proper Portuguese food and of course some more wine. I found this to be a great experience and would…”
