The overall experience was neat, and during the fado, quite romantic.
The tour of the facilities was interesting with a lot of information, but the guide had an accent that made it a bit hard to follow / understand for some of the guests. I think I understood most of it.
We had thought the port wine tasting would be more elaborate perhaps, in that we would get several small samples of various wines, and then told what to look for in their taste.
Instead, there were two glasses of port, one white (ruby, I think), and one tawny 10 y.o. Don't get me wrong, we thought it was great, it was just our expectations that were a bit different.
The wine tasting basically took place simultaneously with the fado concert.
I do recommend the tour, as it seems you get "two for the price of one"; both a tour of a wine cellar, and a fado concert. I would recommend it.
