E-BIKE DOURO VALLEY TOUR

What an amazing experience from start to finish, so much so, that I felt compelled to share my experience with others. Strongly recommended by a friend, I reached out to Ricardo - best decision ever! He generously customised two of his tours into one - an e-bike tour and a wine tastings tour. Picking us up in a comfortable vehicle from our Porto City hotel, we set out to the Douro Valley - the ride complete with cool drinks and fresh Portuguese tarts - yum! Arriving at a small cottage surrounded by grape vines in a town on the fringe of the Douro Valley our E-bikes were charged and ready to go. Setting out on our downhill adventure we went, Ricardo leading the way, sticking to quiet unused roads, making brief stops along the way, giving us plenty of information and time to take in the views and of course to take photos. Reaching our destination in the magical town of Pinhão, Ricardo had a friend waiting to pick us and our bikes up. Next on the agenda was lunch which was provided to us by a lovely couple in their home, who paired the food with different wines for us. Here we were able to taste no less than 15 different wines. Yes, 15! We tasted white wine, red wine and Ports. Just imagine, all of this while overlooking the Douro Valley from a large outdoor verandah at the rear of the house. Once we were ready to go, we packed back into the vehicle and just as I thought we were going to call it a day and head back, Ricardo stopped off at one of his favourite view points, a place with 360º views of the Douro Valley. From there we set back on our journey to our Porto City hotel, finishing the day feeling as though we had done and learnt so much, yet didn’t feel rushed or exhausted. Please, I urge you to reach out and contact Ricardo. He is an absolute gentleman, humorous, kind, patient and thoughtful, he left us with the feeling as though we had known him for a lifetime. Thank you very much Ricardo, I will definitely be in contact again for another tour.

We took a fantastic e-bike tour in the Douro Valley near Porto with Ricardo. I would give the tour 10 stars if possible. The bikes and helmets were brand new and Ricardo made everything fun and easy. By the end of the day, we felt more like family. Amazing experience! Amazing guide! We will do some of Ricardo’s other tours on our next visit. He was generous with recommendations for things to do and very responsive on WhatsApp. Don’t hesitate! Book with Ricardo.
A tour (and guide) worthy of 10 stars!

We had an extraordinary tour/hike of the Douro Valley with Ricardo. The tour had everything: an extensive Douro Valley wine tasting, hiking up, down and through lush vineyards, breathtaking views, and beers at a local cafe where vineyard workers hang out. Ricardo's extensive knowledge of the area, its landscape and seasonality, the wine making process - and his sense of humor - made for an amazing Douro Valley tour. Highly recommmend!
If you want an understanding of the Douro region and how life is during harvest time then Ricardo is the best!

Ricardo is not just an outstanding guide we would call him a friend. He is very relaxed and pleasant and has a good sense of humour. His knowledge is extensive and we could talk about every subject we were interested in. What he gave us was so much more than we could have ever expected. We had a wonderful portuguese lunch and afterwards the tasting of wines made our day complete. We highly recommend him and we would gladly give him a 1000 stars rating.
We went to a few wineries, a couple of cafes, a beautiful vista and more. We tried at least 20 different wines.

This tour was amazing! We spent the whole day with Ricardo visiting beautiful wineries, drinking great wine, eating delicious food and learning a lot about wine and the Douro valley. Ricardo is very knowledgeable and has access to special locations that you wouldn't be able to see with anyone else. Ricardo was a very fun tour guide with a great sense of humor. We highly recommend this tour!
