What You Will Do
This tour is unique not only because of the stunning views, but also because you will be able to experience two different realities in the region - one small family owned business that has been producing wines and olive oils for four generations; and another bigger winery uses modern technology to produce award winning ports. This will allow you to feel a clear contrast between the two businesses.
Another uniqueness of this tour is that you will be offered several lunch options from where you can choose, because we take the food experience seriously and want you to enjoy a top quality local food. Here are the options:
1. A mid-range restaurant with delicious food made
from local fresh ingredients;
2. A high end restaurant (only available for private group bookings, closed on Sundays and Mondays)
3. Michelin Star Chef restaurant for an unforgettable food experience
(closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays).
