Portuguese Wine Tasting
Good Place to Drink, Good Place to Eat, Good Place to Relax, Picnic Spot
Portugal is renowned for its wines and fortified port wines. Tours head off from Lisbon to the surrounding vineyards and wineries, where you can see how the wines are made, get a feel for the centuries-old winemaking traditions and, most importantly, taste the fine wines produced here.
Pair wines with Portugal’s famous Azeitao cheese, or visit the Herdade do Esporao estate in Reguengos de Monsaraz to sip award-winning oak-aged wines. At Quinta de Santana in Mafra, wines are served in the picturesque surroundings of rolling hills striped with vines, providing glimpses of the sea.
Of course, you don’t need to leave Lisbon to sample a good drop. The city’s atmospheric wine bars serve sparkling whites and ruby reds accompanied by Portuguese tapas like sausage and olives, or garlicky prawns and clams.

First I have to gripe about other Viator reviewers: Please write more than just "it was excellent" as this tells me
nothing about the tour. Please please please write details, be more descriptive for heavens sake. Paulo was the guide, meeting point is right by the big friggin statue. He can be easily missed but should have a pamplet or two in his hands. I called thinking I missed it and the operator told me to look for a guy that was tall and bald, not exactly the right description for this guy, i am not very tall and he was just a little taller than me, he is not completely bald, short hair, maybe a bald spot on top. This guide is awsome! He took me all around tasting food and drinks explaining the local produce and meats. cheese and marmalade I would say no 9 out of 10 times and this was awesome! He pointed out great stores that I later went back to for shopping before I left Lisbon. Wine, olive oil, pork. He shows you places that you would never know existed inside door with hardly any type of signs that were awesome to eat at. You walk all around and see tons of bars and restaurants he tells you about, we even went into a cool church. He walked me to an awsome scenic view where later I had to revisit for more pictures. Have to recommend this tour early so you learn about their food and drinks so that you visit the right places during your stay. i did this tour right after I landed and checked into my hotel, rushed to the metro, figured it out easily, thre's an english option and voila walk to right from the restauradores metro stop.
The most educational and enjoyable tour that I have been on to date. Our guide Paolo was both knowledgable and cordial and took the time to fully explain the origins and cultural significance of the Portuguese foods and beverages that we sampled on our tour. The exercise was welcome too! Highly recommend this tour.
