Perfect day trip from Lagos - Awesome half day trip to the beautiful town of Selves and then to a lovely winery! Scenes were fantastic, wine was delicious and our guide Antonio was friendly, knowledgeable and fun! I only wish it lasted longer :) would definitely recommend this for a casual afternoon trip from Lagos to enjoy the surrounding algarve!

Wine tour of Silves and Monchique. - António was amazingly knowledgeable and likeable.We never felt rushed or overwhelmed by all the information. He patiently showed us many of the fruit producing trees and explained how the cork is harvested from the trees. We were treated to castles and cathedrals and gorgeous views. The end of the trip to Silvas and Monchique was a special tour. The wine tasting put everyone in an excellent mood. Thank you António I would rate your tour a 10 out of 10.

Lagos Wine tour - We enjoyed this wine tour as a group of six. Antonio our driver was excellent from booking the tour and also during the tour.Our first stop was at Silves castle which was very interesting. We then set of to the winery and to sample some wine. Once again Antonio had an excellent knowledge of the wine and we went on to purchase some wine to take home. Antonia then took us down into the vats and bottling area and explained the process from start to finish. This was an excellent tour with an excellent tour guide. Would definitely recommend this tour.

Excellent wine tour - I enjoyed the trip to vineyard best. Our guide, Antonio, was excellent and explained everything to us, allowing lots of time for questions. The wine itself was lovely. We had lovely travelling companions and no purchases were forced on us.

Excellent tour - Excellent guide, nice visit to Silves, good wine tasting. I do not like to write long reviews and dislike the minimum limit of characters in this field.

A Toast to this Tour! - From the minute we got in the van until the minute we were dropped off, Antonio could not have been more charming, interesting and fun. It was a great tour with a surprise stop in Silves which turned out to be a highlight! The wines we tasted were excellent and Antonio’s explanation of the wine making process was exceptionally good!! We would definitely do a tour with Antonio again. 10 stars out of five!!!

Algarve wine tour with Antnio - Our guide, Antnio, was very knowledgeable about the region and the wines. He led the wine making tour at the winery after we tasted four delicious wines, one of which is up for a reward for the second year in a row. We spent some time in Silves touring an old Moorish castle and a cathedral. Being springtime in Portugal, the countryside was just starting to bloom, and there were storks everywhere with eggs in their nests. I highly recommend this tour with Antnio.
