Fantastic day with an excellent guide! - We had a wonderful full day in the Alentejo with Ricardo. We enjoyed lovely wine tastings at family wineries, learned about local wine production, and had a super interesting visit to the cork factory. (Buy your cork products there rather than in Lisbon!) He adjusted the itinerary a bit to our interests and helped us to get a taste of the local food, drink, and culture. We would absolutely tour with Ricardo again.

Above and Beyond! - Excellent! Our guide, Ricardo, was great! He is knowledgeable of the area, flexible, and entertaining. We felt this is the only way to go. Have your own guide with just a few people. Ricardo had some great suggestions that made the trip very enjoyable. Thanks!

Dynamic tour - A wonderful tour departing from Lisbon. Our guide, Helena, was lovely and knowledgeable and served as the perfect guide. We toured two wineries - one large and one small. The best part of the trip may have been the small town near the border of Spain that we visited for lunch. We also visited a medieval city overlooking the region with a fantastic view.

Lovely way to enjoy wine and the countryside - Such a wonderful break from the business of Lisbon. The family winery was wonderful, the restaurant for lunch (get the chickpea stew), and the traditional tile factory for authentic tiles. Ask for Helena; she’s the best!

Fabulous Day Trip to Evora - We had a fabulous day touring the Evorian countryside with our guide, Ricardo! We stopped at two very different wineries (Ervideira & Vinhos Calisto,) had a fabulous typical lunch in Mourao, Adega Velha, walked the town of Monsaraz and made a quick stop in Evora to see the Roman Temple to Diana. Our tour guide was fun & knowledgable! Definitely a day we'll remember forever! Thank you, Ricardo!

Through this tour, we learned even more about why we so much enjoyed traveling in Portugal. - Our guide, Nonu, was excellent. He had put together a good itinerary for the day, and he was very knowledgeable about Portugal's fascinating history as he drove us to the various sites we visited. He provided good options of places of interest that we were able to visit, and the two winery tours he set up were so enjoyable.

One of the best highlights of our trip! - What a great trip! If you have the chance to get to Alentejo we highly recommend this tour. We visited two wineries plus the UNESCO village of Evora with Nuno on a wonderful private tour. At the second winery we were having such a good time that we ended up with more tastings than originally slated. Plus Nuno took us to a cork factory, not on our original itinerary, and he bought us wine to take with us. And talk about kindness: it was raining when we got back to Lisbon. He took us to our hotel so we could drop off the wine and then drove us to our dinner reservation.

Great day visiting another part of Portugal - Had a very good day with Nuno visiting Evora and the Alentejo area. Began with a stop at a cork factory to learn how cork is harvested and worked in products. Visited a winery for tasting 3 wines, but no tour of cellars. Had a delicious lunch at the restaurant recommended by Nuno. We viewed the Roman ruin and visited the medieval church. The afternoon winery visit took longer than expected as we were put with another group. Altogether it was nice to get out of the city and Nuno was very accommodating to our wishes. FYI the drive to Evora takes around 90 minutes from Baxia area.

Historic location, coupled with two wine tastings - The history of the area described in the local Evora museum gave us a better perspective of the region and the many tribes that once swept over it in conquest. Worth 2 hours. We skipped the church and the shops to have more time.
