Anna did an incredible job of explaining the Quinta and she answered our numerous questions. She also made sure we were taken care of during the lunch. We all enjoyed the meal, the wine and the porto. Anna is dedicated to her work and she is very nice. We strongly suggest you go see her and spend time with her. It is truly worth it
Wonderful Experience

The guide who took me to Quinta da Pacheca is an incredible person and surprised me because in addition to waiting for me to arrive, she knew that I didn't want to be in that big group and we went to taste the wines in the hotel's restaurant. The hello conversation was so wonderful that the next day I told a couple who had coffee with us to call her and they went to meet her too. The tour is unmissable and the guide, as I expected, was wonderful.
An unforgettable tour!!

Absolutely excellent experience! Ana is the sweetest guide who is also a local from the Duoro valley area and knows a lot about the wineries and local traditions. We had a pleasant visit to the Pacheca winery, tasting, food, views- everything was amazing! Thank you Ana for this great time together!!!

We originally booked this tour. Ana contacted us to say that we could not get a lunch reservation on that day and would we consider another winery. We meet in Cumieire and did a hike through the vineyards. Ana asked about our fitness and tailored a hike to our level. We had a delicious lunch of local specialties and accompanying wine she chose ahead of time. We then had a great tasting at H.O. Winery. Cliff did a gave us a very fun and informative tour and tasting. Ana was very attentive, personable and kind. We will definitely do another tour with her when we return.
A perfect day.

Ana took us on a beautiful hike around the vineyard which treated us to perfect views with the right amount of challenge. She was fun and personable, and knew so much about the area. The motivation of a lovely three course lunch paired with wine helped us to get through the 10k hike! We loved the tour and tasting at the winery as well. It was a true highlight of our trip to Portugal and a time we will never forget!
