With only 4 days in the D valley, Lawrance Klein was able to thread the needle to see multiple vineyards,educate & view the intricacies of the centuries of wine & port production from this region. His exceptional command of the English language and world knowledge made him especially invaluable to our groups understanding of the plethora of history and complexity of this colorful country. Plan first to go to Portugal, but only if Lawrance is available during your stay.

What a delightful adventure. We had Jose as our tour guide and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better! He was kind and knowledgeable and went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. Jose was charismatic and a really great driver! The cities we visited were gorgeous and he made sure that we have as many adventures as we could! Would definitely recommend and would request again when we return!!!!

Everything was so easy. Company called and confirmed pickup location, we got off our flight and driver was waiting for us with our name on a sign. Our driver, Pedro, was so nice and got us to our destination no problems. Definitely would use Meridian4People for other activities while in portugal.
