Hello, I'm Pedro, a passionate and knowledgeable guide based in Porto with over 15 years of experience in the world of wine — and a WSET Level 2 certification to back it up. I specialize in private, personalized tours that blend culture, history, and gastronomy to offer travelers a deeper, more authentic look at Porto and Portugal. Whether we’re strolling through Porto’s historic centre, heading to the Atlantic coast, or exploring the breathtaking Douro Valley, I craft each tour with care, insight, and a genuine love for sharing my country. I work independently (no substitutions), and partner with trusted, insured drivers for private transportation when needed (I might be your driver as well), regarding my huge and safe driving experience. I guide in English, Portuguese, and Spanish, and I’m always happy to tailor the experience to your interests—especially if those interests involve wine and food! My goal is simple: to give you a warm, relaxed, and enriching experience that feels less like a tour, and more like spending the day with a local friend. Let’s discover Portugal's secrets—one story, one glass, and one memorable moment at a time.

Embrace a unique and unforgettable full-day wine, gastronomic and cultural tour experience through the Douro Valley - the oldest established wine region in the world. As a passionate Douro guide, I will present to you the magnificent history of this golden region as well as the importance of the wine industry in the development of their population and region. This tour will allow you to taste a range of Port & DOC wines as well as a regional and savory lunch to help you meet the Douro daily food habits and understand how their unique terroir influences the quality of their wines, and why their perfectly aligned terraces shaped over the last 3 centuries by thousands of brave men, help the name of the Port Wine reach every corner of the world. Book this tour to live a magical day, and enjoy the stunning and scenic landscapes of this region.
