I found out about CDV while I was traveling and met a couple who told me about their experience with CDV and way they described it sounded amazing so the following year I decided to travel to Portugal with them and I cannot even put into words how amazing the experience was, but I will try… From the minute you arrive you’re treated as if you are family arriving for a family reunion… not a member of a tour group. the cooking lessons are at someone’s home. We toured these small family owned wineries where the owners took such pride and passion in their work and then we sat down for a meal with them. All of our meals that we had were like family sitting around a table every night, talking about our day and our experiences. By the time I left that trip, I made friends who I’ve kept in touch with and I have traveled with on other CDV trips. I have now been on 4 CDV trips and each one has been so incredibly special. The friends I have made on each trip have become family to me and I look forward to and count down the days to each trip. The itineraries are so wonderfully put together and the hosts who are with you for the week, know your names before you even arrive. I can’t wait for my for my next trip.
