It was a nice trip, particularly the wine tasting. The drive round the centre of Porto was a bit boring after the first 5 minutes as you literally pass by without appreciating in detail. It is like the trailer of a movie instead of watching the movie :)

Got voucher online. Nowhere was it mentioned i then needed to change it to a paper ticket once there, so was told at last moment and missed the train. Had to wait for the next one. Staff not particularly cooperative at the office. All good at the porto factory. Good value tour

The Port Wine tasting was very informative, we had a great guide! Unfortunately, in the back of the train the Speakers didn't seem to work and we couldn't hear any of the Information. In General, I felt that there could have been more Information during the train tour. All together, a really good tour to get an insight of Porto and learn about Port Wine
