The lovely Oporto in June

08 September 2012

I was lucky to have had the chance to visit Oporto in June and had a wonderful time. From the moment I was met from the plane by our knowledgeable and friendly guide Rui, who stayed with us throughout the trip, I found the city to be enchanting. Our first night was at the very comfortable Holiday Inn, located in the heart of the city. After checking in, we had our first meal at the DOP restaurant, owned by self taught chef RUI PAULA - the the food was amazing and the whole evening was magical. Certainly one to recommend. The following morning was spent at the CALLEM DISTILLERY, where we enjoyed a guided tour and enjoyed the breathtaking views before heading for a truly traditional restaurant on the banks of the river Douro. After lunch we had a guided tour of the city, Porto cathedral, the famous Lello bookshop and the historical Sao Benito train station – all well worth a visit. Next, we headed off to Guimaraes, a world heritage site, before visiting the castle with its stunning views and a medieval town where we strolled through the streets lined with lovely colourful houses. An aromatic coffee at the pousadda de santa marinha is a must – this 12th century monastery will take you back in time before heading to the family owned hotel QUINTA DE PACHECA, set amongst vine yards and beautiful gardens surrounding a lovely courtyard – a place to fall in love with. The evening was spent at the CASTAS E PRATOS for a gourmet meal whilst we enjoyed fantastic wines before retiring to bed. The next morning was spent trying the local port before another amazing lunch at QUINTA NOVA NOSSA SENHORA with the sun on our backs as we relaxed and ate mouth-watering food, served by the friendly staff. This was another highlight for everyone. Next, the guide took us to the historic railway station, which dates back to the 12th century and from there, onto the hotel VINTAGE where we were greeted with champagne as we took in the outstanding location. The lovely city of Oporto was a charming surprise – full of colour, stunning scenery, history and delicious food, even for the pickiest appetite. A great weekend break for couples and families alike but a guide is greatly recommended to make sure you don’t miss a thing!

Dear Ann Just to let you know it was the holiday of a lifetime. We had an absolutely fabulous time. Everything was so easy re: hotels, hire car etc. Now I want to see other bits of the US so I'd be glad of any recommendations you may have although we will have to do some serious saving! Anyway, thank you very much for organising it for us. It could not have been better. Thanks again

We are just back and cannot thank you enough - it was simply wonderful. The itinerary, recommendations and logistics all fitted together perfectly. This was our first long-haul trip with three kids and our first foray into Africa. Overall it was magnificent and would have been quite impossible without you. Thanks so much and here's to the next time.

I currently have the pleasure of working with Ann Mitchell in booking our honeymoon and all the travel arrangements for my wedding, for not only myself but 37 others! I wanted to let you know that Ann is beyond brilliant, she has helped with absolutely everything she can and put herself out in every way possible to make sure we can have the hotels or flights or anything else we may need. Ann is brilliant, my parents and I have been doing business with her for years and I cannot express how grateful we are for all the help she gives us! Natalie Bunyer
