It was a great trip and Paulo did a fantastic job. I would encourage this trip to be changed to include a local stop for lunch!

Great guide who improved our knowledge on various wines, how they are made and the history of wine making. The choice on 3 vineyards was great i.e. from small to a cooperative to large and historic(where the guide was also excellent). The tastings had an excellent range of wines. We were also getting insights into local geography, culture and history as we travelled. And we became more aware of how cork is grown and its uses. The trip flew because it was so interesting

We wish we could rate this 10 stars!! This was a fabulous, reasonably-priced tour with an outstanding and knowledgeable tour guide. We couldn't have been happier!
You go to three great producers and the pours, about 16 or 17 total, are generous and fantastic wines. There was also a cheese/meat platter at the last winery.
Trust me. This is great a great tour and you will not be disappointed!!
