We had an amazing day out exploring the Douro Valley with Luis, Sofia and Martina for my friends hen do. I would recommend to any group if you want to have fun and explore nature.

We went kayaking paddle boarding, hiking and swimming beneath a waterfall. The traditional Portuguese lunch was delicious too. We had so much fun! Luis especially was lots of fun and never too serious.

Thanks again Oporto Adventure Tours!
