Review weight sets the order, not commission, and the same facts fill every column, so the lines compare like for like.
How many ratings each one has
Each bar shows how many ratings it has, the score in brackets beside it; on its own a score tells you little without the crowd behind it.
With fewer than about ten ratings, chance shapes a score more than the experience does.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ratings | 20 | 740 | 2,463 | 1,569 | 145 |
How far to trust the rating
The rating is 4.8 from 20 reviews. That is a high score on a modest number of ratings. In its category of 64 Douro Valley tours, it ranks 52 of 64 by number of reviews. The 4.8 is therefore a positive signal from a small sample, not a heavily tested record.
If you weigh review volume heavily, the rank tells you this tour sits near the bottom of its group on that measure.
The day, stop by stop
The stops come in the order the day usually runs, each with what is there and the figures behind it; the data sheet holds the rest.
Pickup where you are staying
Pickup is from where you are staying, and the time shown runs from that moment.

December is close, with a high of 14 °C and a low of 7 °C. May and October are milder, with highs of 20 °C and 21 °C and lows of 12 °C. June and September reach 24 °C, with lows of 14 °C and 15 °C.
In summer you cover the hottest part of the afternoon; in winter you start and finish in cooler conditions.
