Very enjoyable cellar tour. The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable both about the history of the cellar itself and the wines. For the 10 euro price of this tour you get to try three port wines which was a good amount.

I really enjoyed how the guide was explaining everything. Also the structure of the tour was quite nice and I also enjoyed the wine tasting. 3 types of port wine and the guide explained well each of them. I do recommend it .

Nous avons passé un superbe moment avec notre guide qui nous a fait découvrir son patrimoine et des vins exclusifs de sa famille. Nous recommandons à 100%

A great tour on the history of port wine and elements about its fermentation process. Well worth it!

A small group and a great guide made for enjoyable tour. Off the beaten path but worth it.
