Wonderful day - This is a wonderful place to spend a day. The museums are interactive, beautifully designed and the service is wonderful. The attention to detail in the wine museum is second to none. The restaurants and bars are excellent and for the 39 euro entrance to all the museums, it is incredibly good value. Do not miss the pink experience. A trip through rose wine that is really fun. Wonderful day!

Wine! History! Fun!! - During our stay in Porto, we wondered over to Gaia, took the gondola down and ended up in WOW, it did not disappoint! We purchased the daily pass and made the most use costing 5 museums over the afternoon. We saw Planet Cork, Wine Experience, the Chocolate Story, Pink Palace and the history of Porto! The staff throughout the whole place were very pleasant, answered all our questions. These are all self guided tours. Planet cork was amazing, didn't realize how much you could do with this. The wine experience tour was just as good so much info on wine. With a tasting at the end by Joao who was also great! The Chocolate Story was next and we had a great time enjoying chocolate from all the different stations and learning of its long history! again, the staff was awesome! The pink palace was really fun and definitely a instragram worthy opportunity at every turn! And finally the history of Porto! If you're looking for a great experience for wine, history and fun visit WOW!!

Impeccable visit - I visited with my family during Easter week. We were very well looked after by all the staff, especially by the guide Victória, who accompanied us and made the visit very special. The test was excellent, I recommend the experience.

All You Wanted to Know About Wine - But Were Afraid To Ask - We visited all of the WOW “museums” over a four day period during a wet November - dry and bargains with the over 65’s concession WOW card. They are, apart from the Bridge Collection, not museums in the conventional sense. More of an educational exhibition. The wine experience takes you right the way from growing the vines through harvest, fermenting, bottling and drinking. It took us about two hours to go through the exhibition. Nice in November, but would not like to attempt this during the tourist season. The exhibition is exceptionally well curated with a mix of static and interactive displays. There is something for everyone from total beginner to more experienced wine buffs. You see something new every time you visit. Every day is a school day with new facts emerging as you pass through.
