My name is Ricardo Manuel and I was born and raised in Porto City. Although tourism changed Porto for the best (in my opinion) for the last 5 years, me and my family had to move out from Porto, into the bush, housing and living costs became very high and we made the choice that we should move out to the countryside. In this last year 2020 and even in 2021 with a pandemic, work just fell down drastically and we had to adapt. Making Port Wine, Muscat Wine and sometimes olive oil in a amatuer way since 2014, this hobbie become my family income. With vineyards and olives fields almost abandoned from the pandemic I rolled up my sleeves and went to work, asking neighbours and friends if I could keep their grapes and olives for harvest time, their answers were immediately YES Dividing my life between Porto and Douro Valley, me and my family feel completely safe, happy and relaxed with this new way of living. Come and see my amazing town Porto and Douro Valley Wine Region from the eyes of a local !!! Hope to see you soon. Cheers !!!

Such a small country, but as we go by, you will see that the local people, our traditions, our language, the country landscape, the wine, the food, the pastries, changes every 20 miles, what a great place to live, experience and visit. Because you are awesome and very important to me, I want to show you the very best in Portugal, between Porto and Lisbon, so depending on your interest or personal taste, we can make 2 stops. We will try to escape the more common and touristic places and show you the true nature of a little bit of this country, a garden planted near the sea, at the most western part of Europe. In this awesome private tour, you will experience Portugal from another, relaxed, cultural, friendly, tasty, and cozy place. Relax, you will arrive at your destiny, but expect the unexpected.
