Our tour was as indicated. Michael was very knowledgeable and very patient explaining the wine process to us. We enjoyed our day immensely. Would definitely recommend.

It didn’t start well as the driver went to the wrong hotel and had a different name and number however it was quickly resolved when after waiting an extra 20 mins we text the office the driver was with us within 5 mins. It was an admin error and Michael was extremely apologetic. The trip itself was ok. Michael chatted to us on way to first winery but he was concerned that he was late!! The first winery was beautiful. The hills and country side around it was spectacular. Michael did a personal tour of how they made the wines which took 20 minutes and then we tasted three beautiful wines and a plate of meat and cheeses. We then went to the second winery which took about 30 mins in the car. Limited conversation from Michael When we arrived at second winery we were taken to a modern concrete building where we met Edith who was absolutely superb. Interesting and informative. We were given 5 tastings all delicious However whilst we were drinking the wine there was no conversation just silence. We felt it was a rushed afternoon with very limited interaction from our guide. It was an expensive trip and thought we spent as much time in the car as we did in the vineyards. Perhaps we will book a group trip next time.

Both wine-tasting experiences were enjoyable! Proprietors were knowledgeable & helpful.
Our guide was an exceptional adjunct to the winery personnel & we were very pleased to have him.
Nice relaxing afternoon!

We had a great time during our tour, the wines we tasted were very good and both wineries were fascinating to visit. We got to learn the story of the founders of both wineries and could feel the passion in their stories. Mike is very knowledgeable about wines and the organisation of the tour was very well done. Highly recommended

We were picked up by Michael and transported on a wonderful wine tour. He was very knowledgeable about Algarve wine production. We visited 2 Quintas. Both included tours of vineyards and tasting of 3 wines at each. Quality of the wines was excellent and we purchased some bottles to take home. I would recommend this tour to anyone wanting to learn about high class wine production in the Algarve.

Trevlig upplevelse med 2 helt olika vingårdar som bägge bjöd på vin av kvalitet. Michael är en kunnig guide som kan allt om vin och svarar snällt på alla frågor.
Response from Host, Jul 2023
Thank you for your feedback. I was a pleasure to have your company in this tour.

Zwei völlig unterschiedliche Weingüter haben für einen informativen und gemütlichen Nachmittag gesorgt. Unser Guide Michael hat uns hervorragend betreut,
Response from Host, Jul 2022
I am happy that you enjoyed yourself !!

Great activity, les deux vignobles furent intéressants ainsi que les guides.
Un très bel après-midi ! On recommande.

Thank you for your visit and review. It was a pleasure to meet you.

Laut Beschreibung war der Besuch von drei Weingütern versprochen, nach zweien und einem kurzen Mittagessen war Schluss. Das war für eine Ganztagestour jedoch nicht ausschreichend.
Der Guide war nett jedoch hätte ich mir hier ein bischen mehr Input gewünscht, er war grunsätzlich nicht sonderlich gesprächig. Während der ersten Weinprobe hat man uns alleine gelassen.
Würde ich ehrlich gesagt nicht weiter empfehlen.
