We did not receive what we booked through our travel agent. Upon arriving, we were seated in an old and very dirty Nissan four-door vehicle, and then driven to the top of the “ranch“. We proceeded to walk down a dirt road without ever once seeing a jeep. The tour lasted 2 1/2 hours (including the wine-tasting) and we were quickly ushered out when the driver reappeared. We were informed that we could have continued the walk around the cork trees, but it would have been an estimated 5 km. Since we booked a jeep tour, we were not interested in walking 5 km. I’m not sure who is responsible for this mistaken tour, but it was extremely disappointing. Further, when we attempted to at least purchase a bottle of wine, we were told by the young guide, Joana, that they were not able to sell their wines at the winery because of agreements to sell through their distributors. We feel that we missed out on what we expected to be a really nice time, were probably overcharged, and would not at all recommend this tour.
