    My dad and I are visiting Portugal for a week, and while we were in Porto we decided to do a day trip to the Douro valley to some wineries and we had an fantastic time. We learned of Nomad Steps through our Airbnb host and signed up for a private tour with Timur. He picked us up at our place in town and drove us out to the valley, and along the way, he gave us lots of history of the region and an explanation of how the day would unfold. We began by taking a beautiful boat ride up the river where we got to see the beauty of the valley from below. Once we were done he drove us up to a small boutique winery where we had a tour and tasting of their wine and olive oil. The folks there were so outgoing and helpful and their products were very tasty. We took at break for lunch at a wonderful winery right on the river and then headed to a larger winery for a tour and port tasting. The location overlooked the valley and had amazing views, and their tasting room was beautiful. Trying to find your way around this area would have been very difficult on our own, not to mention trying to organize all the details of the day. Timur was outgoing, knowledgable and went out of his way to make sure that we had an amazing time. I would definitely recommend him to others who are interested in doing something similar.

    We had a great day with Timur. We chose mid range restaurant and food was delicious. We tasted excellent wines watching beautiful scenery of Douro Valley. Timur is very kind, friendly and helpful. He patiently answered to all our questions. This tour was the best part of our Porto vacation. We highly recommend it!!!

    Timur from Nomad Steps took my family and I on a day tour of the Douro Valley in Portugal. We had an incredible experience and everyone was impressed with Timur's professionalism, attention to detail and how well-organized every aspect of the tour was. He was very knowledgeable of the Douro region and the wines we were tasting. He carefully selected the wineries and the restaurant where we had lunch and ensured that we were given the best experiences possible in each of these places. We look forward to coming back to Portugal and enjoying one of Nomad Steps tours again.

    Timur Nishan with Nomad Steps went above and beyond my expectations. I was looking for a private driver to take 4 people from our Airbnb in Porto to our Airbnb in Lisbon. we had quite a bit of luggage. I also requested to make a few stops along the way to visit some of the sea side towns. This was not a problem and he gave a few suggestions which included Aveido, Nazare with an awesome lunch spot that he suggested and Obidos which he gave us plenty of time in each place to explore and check out the shops etc. Our van was very comfortable and Timur was very accommodating. He was very informative with each city and we had great conversation along the way. I would highly recommend Timur for your next Douro Valley tour or if you have any needs for a private driver, he is your guy. It was a great and memorable experience.

    This tour was magical! It was our first time in Portugal and we wanted to check out the Douro valley. We considered a self-guided tour, but our air bnb host recommended Timur and his company. I’m so glad we chose Timur because he was so knowledge about not only the Douro valley, but also the wines we tasted and Portugal’s history. You could tell he put thought into customizing our family’s adventure. He scheduled a boat tour, two very different winery tours & tastings and a delicious lunch. My daughter has Celiac, and Timur made sure gluten free options were provided. Not only was he knowledgeable, but he went above and beyond to be kind, attentive, and friendly. Everything about this tour was special, don’t miss out on this opportunity of a lifetime!

    After hearing rave reviews from good friends about Nomad Steps, my mom and I scheduled our Duoro Valley wine tour with Timur which turned out to be a highlight of our trip. Timur was punctual, his vehicle is spotless and comfortable, his communication before and during the trip were excellent, and the tour itself was very thoughtfully curated. It began with a boat ride which offered a lovely view of the valley from the water, then we ventured to D'Origem where we sampled wine and olive oil. From there, we enjoyed a delicious lunch at Locomotiva--excellent Octopus! Finally, we finished with a port wine tasting at Sandeman before being dropped off directly in front of our AirBNB. We appreciated Timur's wide range of knowledge and service so much, that we hired him for another day trip during our stay. Additionally, he's a great photographer! You are in the best hands with Timur, and I highly recommend him to anyone visiting Portugal. Great day guaranteed!

    Don’t hesitate to use Nomad Steps . Timur is a fantastic host and gave us one of the most memorable experiences of our lives in the Douro valley ! I will 100% be using Timur again when I’m back in Porto

    Definitely recommend booking with Nomad Steps and Timur The tour was incredible and Timor spaced the day into segments making it so much fun. Scenic drive > boat trip along the douro river > wine tasting > lunch > port tasting. So organized so interesting and a really beautiful trip. He is very knowledgeable and low key. Drives slow and safe around the winding roads. If you are thinking about booking definitely consider Timur.
