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).
