Review weight sets the order, not commission, and the same facts fill every column, so the lines compare like for like.
How many people have rated it
The count of ratings comes first, the score in brackets after it, because a score alone says little without the people standing behind it.
With fewer than about ten ratings, chance shapes a score more than the experience does.

How far to trust the rating
The tour scores 4.7 from 1,206 reviews. That is a large review base, so the score is well supported rather than resting on a few votes. In its day-trips-from-Porto category, it ranks 9 of 72 by number of reviews. A 4.7 is a strong score, and the volume of ratings gives you a useful signal about how consistently the day works for past travellers.

What happens on the day
A guide leads the group, and English guiding is stated by the operator. Portuguese, Spanish and French are also listed. The day is guided, so you stay with the guide and the group. Weather affects how the day feels, and the monthly temperatures give you the likely range for the month you travel.
Who this suits, and who it doesn't
This suits you if you want a long day from Porto and do not need step-free access. It does not suit wheelchair users, because the operator says it is not wheelchair accessible. If you want a shorter outing, the Gerês National Park Canyoning Trip runs 6 hours and costs from 97 EUR, rated 5.0 from 455.
If included lunch matters, the Peneda-Gerês National Park Tour with Lunch runs 10 hours from 104 EUR, rated 4.9 from 1,306. If you would rather add kayaking to a full day, the Peneda-Gerês National Park Tour Kayaking & Lunch runs 10 hours from 109 EUR, rated 4.9 from 455.
