Brad HagerOctober 16, 2015Great place to spend an afternoon. The tour was really good & informative, the tasting was wonderful (4 different ports) & lunch outside with the beautiful views was delicious. Two thumbs up 👍👍
Ondrej SedlacekAugust 18, 2018Informative tour of one of the world’s best port wine companies through their cellars, concluded with a tasting of two glasses of port in a peaceful garden setting. Hard to fault. 9/10.
Jason SuOctober 4, 2017Tour and tasting of a Chip Dry and a Late Bottled Vintage is 12€ (price has gone up). Delicious port and cool tour.
Andrew LitvakNovember 29, 2017Best Port tour & tasting in town. Lots to learn about how Port jds made, and then a solid tasting bar as well. Don’t leave without trying at least the 30 year. The 1967 was phenomenal!
Lucie HruškováAugust 11, 2018I love this place! Caves with many barrels and so tasty wine. You will pay 15 EUR for visit, tour through caves and tasting of 2 glasses of wine.
StephanieOctober 1, 2015Great addition to our trip in Porto. Lovely winery with a short but great tour visit in French. Friendly staff and the location is just amazing.
Maurice KirschbaumSeptember 27, 2015Food, location, price and quality of port wine. This place really got it all right! The hike up is not for the faint of heart though! But really a gem we discovered on our last night in Porto!
Bruno BMarch 24, 201812€ for a audioguide tour with 2 wine tastings. Very informative but you can find cheaper cellars in Gaia.
Catherine AMarch 24, 2017The terrace and garden were beautiful. We arrived too late to do the tour, but we shared full glasses of 10-, 20-, and 30-year ports for 28€.
Damian BayonaJuly 8, 2019A single tasting is enough for 2 people to both enjoy and get a sense of the varying flavors. Peacocks and roosters roam free in the garden
- Frederic DAugust 12, 2017Very nice tour with tasting of 2 Porto wines. Did get quite a lot more expensive than previous reviews though: 12 euro but I think that is the going price nowadays in Porto
Heiner TwenhäfelFebruary 5, 2015I liked the LBV 2009 best. Buy a souvenir bottle at the airport duty free shop (for the same price) if you’re here on a low cost flight without checked baggage.
Stefano PedroAugust 2, 2017The tour is now 12€, it's not made by a guide but with just an audio device and includes only 2 glasses of port. The winery is nice and there are a lot of info panels but it's a bit disappointing.- Clo WillaertsMay 9, 2013The most beautiful spot to enjoy the sunshine with a glass of port in your hand. Nice restaurant. It was the waiter's first day but he made up for his mistakes with a lot of charm.
Michael RiksmanMay 10, 2017Seen some tips suggesting €3 or €5 tours. It's €12pp, and includes a taste teste of a white and a red port. Tour was average. Loved the port though.
Audrey MacIsaacNovember 13, 2012Worth the walk up the hill for the tasting - it's a bargain compared to the houses on the river and of higher quality plus the river and Porto views are amazing.- Heiner TwenhäfelAugust 16, 2016Best value for money of all the Port cellars around. And definitely the best view on their terrace. Well worth the walk!
tiff pangJuly 10, 2014Lovely wine tasting tour, English tour guide is very knowledgeable; patio has a fantastic view over the city
Daria RoOctober 23, 2015Guided tour is too short and not so informative, though the tasting is nice and the view from the terrace is amazing
Allison KasicNovember 26, 2016This is the perfect lodge to start at because the tour is the most in depth and informative.
Mika MorApril 15, 2017The restaurant is great with a very nice outdoor seating terrace over looking the river & city. Highly recommended
Pete CaselliniAugust 30, 2017If you're walking over the bridge from Porto, it'll save a lot of time and effort if you ignore Google's directions and shortcut down through General Torres station
Matúš KollárJuly 30, 2012Taylor's is a classic. Impressive experience, enhanced by great guided tour. I recommended the LBV or, if you have money for it, Vintage. I'm sure that whichever you will choose, you will be satisfied
Road UnraveledJanuary 11, 2017Tour the 300 year old wine caves and enjoy the Port tasting. Great combination!
Petr MJune 13, 2015My first cave in Porto, worth the walk uphill. Beautiful garden, felt like in Paradise. Tour was bit short.
Rafael PenagosSeptember 21, 20174 glasses of great wine, great ambient, just 15€ to finish a lovely day in the city
EliseOctober 12, 2019Not bad, lovely large tasting room and outside patio. More expensive menu and good not great snacks. Feels touristy.
Monica DesaiJune 20, 2018No need to do the tour, but enjoy their LBV and vintages in the beautiful garden!
Matthias MorelSeptember 28, 2014After the tasting, grab your port and take a seat on the balcony.. Great views of Porto
- Lara GenelFebruary 27, 2018The tour now is 12euros per person and they only give you 2 tasting of wine which is not even their best. We were planing to have lunch there but then it wouldn’t worth the money. I don’t recommend.
Sofia UzJune 3, 2016Amazingly beautiful wine warehouse and grounds, try white ports and watch peacock
mike boogaardJuly 28, 2010Go here for one of the most informative (and enjoyable) Port Tours. Great views. Also the Barão Forrester restuarant is the most beautiful spot in Gaia for lunch.
Steve SchwartzSeptember 25, 2016Obviously adjusted to tourists, now 12 euro for tour and 2 tastings. Hour long audio machine. City maps have extra glass promotion.
Aashima RattiSeptember 19, 2018Skip the tour and the restaurant, just have a tasting and cheese in the garden
Nicolas BrugneauxJune 14, 2018The wine is delicious, though the waiters are a bit (very) pretentious somehow.

"We called and got an appointment for an English tour the same day. Both the tour through the cellars and the tasting were great. If you'll only do one tour in Porto, choose Grahams 🙌🏼"

"Best place to try some port in the sun! Recommend trying the white port too!"
Jessica - 8.1
"Great tour in English. We got the one with 3 wine tastings for the price of 4.5€. It was worth it! The wine is amazing! :)"

"Beautiful port house. Delicious 20 year tawny port and 2011 ruby. We ordered some glasses of port and a cheese plate and made our own tasting overlooking the hill 👌🏼"
Lai van Beek - 9.5

Pau - 8.6
"Amazing food and wine. Highly recommended. The chèvre with honey and almonds was spectacular and the bacalhau was excellent. Service was exquisite."
