Reviews
Run by two brothers, Rueben and Rodrigo, this family-owned tour offers a personal touch as they share their passion for the region. The beautiful landscapes, delicious wines, tasty food, and plenty of laughter made for an outstanding day.
Rodrigo and Ruben offered an exceptional tour. Their passion for the Douro region shines through as they showcase its beauty. We explored both the Douro and Vinho Verde areas, enjoyed a river cruise, and sampled plenty of wine. Although the Douro tour costs nearly €200, it's definitely worth every penny for the experience. Highly recommend this to everyone. Great job, Bambuti!
Rodrigo guided us on an excellent tour of several wineries, where we enjoyed a fantastic meal in a private home with an adorable grandmother. Later, we stomped grapes and tasted grey honey from another farm. It was a truly fun-filled day.
Our day with Rodolfo on the full-day wine tour was fantastic. He was friendly, very accommodating, and a skilled driver, which was crucial on the winding roads. Rodolfo truly exceeded our expectations to ensure we had an enjoyable experience. The lunch in the countryside was excellent, and the scenery was stunning. I wholeheartedly recommend this tour.
We had a fantastic day with Ruben, who guided us to incredible spots along with delicious food and wine. He was very friendly and dedicated to ensuring we had a great time. I highly recommend this for a personalized and memorable experience.
Our experience with Rodrigo and Rueben was truly unforgettable. They took us to several vineyards in the stunning Douro Valley, included a delightful boat ride, and treated us to a fantastic lunch in their hometown. Their hospitality made us feel like family, and they shared valuable insights about the region, its history, and the wine-making process. The wine was exceptional, the scenery breathtaking, and their company was superb. From the moment they picked us up at our hotel, we felt at ease. They were attentive and met all our needs. This was the perfect way to celebrate our anniversary! We highly recommend Bambuti tours to anyone looking to enhance their trip. We look forward to returning for another experience soon.
The experience was very enjoyable and tailored to our needs. It's evident that the brothers who operate the business genuinely care about ensuring their clients have a memorable time. I would definitely recommend it.
The entire day was flawless, from beginning to end. Our guide and owner, Ruben, displayed great knowledge and enthusiasm for the region. The full-day tour included a brief boat ride on the Douro River, a wonderful wine tasting at Qta.Sta.Eufemia vineyard, and a visit to an olive oil factory where we sampled products, including local aguardiente and my favorite café liquor. The standout moment was the remarkable lunch served at a stunning Quinta with views of the Douro Valley.
Bambuti offers an exceptional experience in the Douro Valley that stands out from the typical commercial tours. When I looked into day trips from Porto, most options seemed overly commercialized with similar itineraries, which worried me about overcrowding. After doing some research, I discovered Bambuti and was impressed by their quick response to my inquiry, highlighting their commitment to showcasing local and authentic sites. I decided to book and I’m really pleased I did. Ruben, my guide, was not only knowledgeable about the region but also a friendly companion throughout the day. His connections in the valley truly enriched the experience. A highlight of the trip was the olive oil production tour, which felt special to Bambuti’s offering, and the estate where we enjoyed a delicious lunch. The atmosphere was relaxing, and I loved strolling through the property, especially during cherry season when we could pick fresh cherries straight from the trees. The logistics were seamless, with convenient hotel pickup and drop-off in Porto. If you're planning a visit to the Douro Valley while in Porto, I highly recommend reaching out to Bambuti. This was a trip I won’t forget.
It was a wonderful experience. The guide was excellent and provided valuable insights into local wine and port production with tastings included. We enjoyed a delicious lunch in a lovely villa, followed by learning about olive oil and schnapps production. Be sure to leave some room in your luggage for souvenirs like wine, port, and olive oil.
