Fun and scenic
Fantastic day! Pedro was a great tour guide. Great scenery Good wine. Pedro is charming and knowledgeable about wine and the history of the Douro Valley wine
Response from the operator: Hello! Thank you very much for your feedback. Your opinion is really important to us :) We are glad you enjoyed the tour and all the fantastic views of Douro Valley, as well as the knowledge Pedro provided :) The wine is one the highlights of course!

A fabulous day tour
The day tour was exceptional. We had a private tour by the owner of the company, who was professional in every way and had a wealth of information to impart. There were many interesting features of this tour, from the magnificent views from Santa Luzia sanctuary, as well as the stunning church itself. Walking through the old towns and enjoying a typical Portuguese lunch (which was delicious) accompanied by local wine, were all amazing features of this tour. We cannot recommend this company highly enough and have already recommended them to our friends who will be visiting Porto soon.

A unique experience when visiting the Porto region
This was a really memorable experience booked after having been on the Douro Valley tour offered by João and Pedro (I would highly recommend that also). Having tried wine from the region before visiting Porto we were keen to find out more about the Vinho Verde region. The tour did not disappoint, the views were spectacular from the viewpoints in Ponte de Lima and Viana do Castelo and made you really appreciate the most amazing Portuguese landscape, it;s really such a special area of the county. João was a fantastic guide, he personalised the experience and took time to get to know us and share his knowledge of the region. The town of Ponte de Lima was beautiful and I left feeling like I had seen part of the country not as famous as Porto. I'd recommend this experience if you are in Porto and also doing it with João and Pedro, they are both such great hosts and when I come back to Porto I will be getting in touch to arrange further tours. Highly recommend both the company and doing this tour if you're in Porto. Thanks for such an amazing time!

Off the Tourist Path
If you're looking for something a little different, this is the tour for you! One of my favorite parts about my trip to Portugal. I've known several people who have visited the Porto area, but no one who has been up to the Minho region. If you are looking for delicious food, authentic culture, and spectacular views, this will be the perfect day. We were the only two people on our trip (I think this is a newer offering/probably overshadowed by the Douro trips) and our guide taught us so much - we learned more from him about the Douro valley than we did visiting the actual valley with another company! Lots of knowledge about wine all over the country, but also about the regions themselves. And unlike our Douro trip, we saw very few if any other tourists. Ponte De Lima is a hidden gem and one we never would have discovered on our own. Such a cute town with a fun history. Make sure you are an adventurous eater (our lunch was tripe - which we loved) because you will get a true Portuguese meal. In my opinion - a must-do if you are wanting to get a taste of the real Portugal with an experienced guide, in beautiful towns.

Green Wine Ponte Lima Region-Small Group tour-Lunch,Wine Tastings: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Braga.
How much does Green Wine Ponte Lima Region-Small Group tour-Lunch,Wine Tastings cost?
+
Prices start at $160 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Braga usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Green Wine Ponte Lima Region-Small Group tour-Lunch,Wine Tastings take?
+
Plan for about 9 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Braga is not rushed.
Is Green Wine Ponte Lima Region-Small Group tour-Lunch,Wine Tastings worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 7 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Braga, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Green Wine Ponte Lima Region-Small Group tour-Lunch,Wine Tastings?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Green Wine Ponte Lima Region-Small Group tour-Lunch,Wine Tastings suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Green Wine Ponte Lima Region-Small Group tour-Lunch,Wine Tastings?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Braga can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Braga and add a light layer if any part of the 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Green Wine Ponte Lima Region-Small Group tour-Lunch,Wine Tastings start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Braga within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Braga?
+
On Outty we rank every Braga experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include From Porto: Waterfall, Lagoon, Old Village in Gerês National Park, Kayaking and Waterfall in Peneda-Gerês National Park from Porto, Canyoning Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Braga?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Braga?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
