I'm Igor, a Certified Sommelier accredited by the Court of Master Sommeliers and a gastronomy expert. I excel in delivering top-tier guest service and delivering unforgettable experiences in the Douro Valley and Porto. My background includes a rich history in tourism, starting on a luxury cruise line where I sailed worldwide. I later transitioned to Michelin Star Restaurants at the Yeatman Hotel and Casa da Cha restaurant, working with guests from diverse backgrounds, showcasing the best of the north and our award winning gastronomy and hospitality! Naturally inclined towards sharing my passion, I became a tour guide. This allows me to blend my expertise in food and wine, local culture, and travel to create authentic and personalized private experiences for travelers. I await the opportunity to share this beautiful region with you! 2nd degree - Court of Master Sommeliers 25 years working in tourism & hospitality I am not an official guide and will not be able to guide guests inside of certain historical monuments (but you will get all the information prior to the visit and I will accompany you through all the sites).

This tour was excellent. We enjoyed every minute! The tour was authentic and took us to sorts less traveled. Igor L was the best tour guide. He was caring and attentive. His local knowledge is beyond compare.

Our day with Igor was absolutely unforgettable! From the moment we met him, it was clear that we were in the hands of someone who knows the region inside and out and loves sharing its beauty, culture, and history. Igor curated the perfect balance of views, intimate family-run wineries, and authentic local experiences. His storytelling brought the valley to life. Igor was warm, personable, and attentive to every detail. He made sure we were comfortable and his genuine passion for connecting visitors with the Douro Valley shone through in every stop we made. By the end of the tour, we felt not just like guests, but like friends exploring with a local who truly loves his home. If you’re planning to visit the Douro Valley, do yourself a favor and book with Igor. He transformed a beautiful region into an extraordinary and personal experience. Highly recommend!

What a memorable day! From beautiful views of Amarante and the Duoro Valley to interesting facts and stories about what we saw throughout the day, Igor was very knowledgeable about the Duoro Valley and extremely kind. The lunch was absolutely amazing, we had such good food and wine in a private setting, and the owners of the winery were very nice. Thank you Igor!

Miguel is the best! We had a great day touring the Douro Valley with him. He is knowledgeable, friendly and gave us a day of wonderful memories.

We took the train from Porto to Pinhao, stayed the night, and arranged for Igor to pick us up in the morning. He took us on a one-hour boat trip on the scenic river, part of the World Heritage Site. We then went to Vallado for a wine tour and tasting. Afterwards we went to Pacheca for a food and wine pairing lunch and then a tasting of port. Igor drove us back to Porto, which is a scenic drive. He was charming and knowledgeable about all sites, but especially about wine as he is a certified sommelier. He was the perfect guide. We highly recommend him.
