Most Memorable Tour Yet!
It is truly a spectacular tour and well worth the cost. The views are spectacular, guides were so knowledgeable, patient, and in very good spirits. The wineries were absolutely lovely. I’ve taken more tours than I can remember, however this one, I will never forget
Excellent day of wine
Great experience. Tiago was great, so much personality and lots of interesting information. Lovely wines. 3 great vineyards. Recommend.
Great experience !
Tiago was an incredible tour guide. He was very kind, fun, and explained everything in great detail. We got a good amount of wine, lunch, and dessert. It was also a good amount of time at each vineyard. Highly recommend!
Great day out
Vitor Alves was an excellent tour guide/driver. We did the three-winery tour and he made sure to get us where we needed to be, plus answered questions we didn’t think to ask of the other guides. We especially enjoyed his historical knowledge.
Great tour, highly recommend!
We had a wonderful day with Andre. Clean and spacious car. He was friendly, informative and knowledgeable. The day was very well planned out. We were never rushed and there was plenty of time to see each winery, wander around and take photos. We had such a lovely time we didn’t want the day to end.
