Private Porto Highlights & Port Wine Tasting Tour

A fully private, chauffeur-guided exploration of Porto's UNESCO World Heritage Centre — from the gilded São Bento azulejo panels to a tutored tasting in a historic port wine lodge. The ultimate curated introduction to Portugal's second city.

What to expect

Your guide meets you dockside at Leixões and whisks you into Porto's medieval core, pausing at Ribeira's colourful waterfront, the baroque Torre dos Clérigos, and the jaw-dropping azulejo murals of São Bento station. The grand finale is a private tasting room in a historic Vila Nova de Gaia lodge where a sommelier walks you through aged tawny and vintage ports with local charcuterie. With a private vehicle, you're back aboard with time to spare — stress-free and unhurried.

Good to know

Book well in advance as private slots fill quickly on peak-season port days. Journey from Leixões to Porto centre is roughly 20–25 minutes by private car. Confirm your ship's all-aboard time with the operator so they can plan the return buffer.
