Andra ZapartanAugust 5, 2019We took a tour of these caves and really enjoyed it. I learned a lot about (their) wines and tasted some pretty delicious wines at the end. They have a store too where you can buy your favorite wines.

FrederikJune 19, 2015Great tour! Funny guide. Good tasting at the end. We bought the white port. Spoiler: port is not wine, but liquor. It's not made in Porto, but in Villa Nova de Gaia. Interesting!

Kimberly ChinNovember 22, 2018English tours starts at 4p and 520p in the afternoon. Tour only takes 20mins or less. You’re left on your own after the tastings introductions. Max overall takes about an hour from start to finishUpvote7Downvote
Villars GimmAugust 2, 2019Can only recommend taking the cheese and chocolate tasting as part of the tour. We got our own corner for ourselves and could enjoy the wine in our own tempo.

Olha FeidakOctober 3, 2020Perfect guided tour. The easy explained process how everything is done and why Porto as wive is sweet, even it calls dry. How the soil is structured. Have to visit before going to restaurant.

Johnny LympusApril 12, 2017I found the tour really interesting, even when I had already done a port tour! I also really enjoyed the tasting and Fado music at the end, although it went on for quite a while.UpvoteDownvote

Megan MastersJuly 18, 2014The caves are neat and I learned a lot about how to make port. Perhaps they should serve better ports with the tastings though, as they probably were the worst that we tried in town :(Upvote2Downvote

T ChurchMarch 30, 2013Sorry to say but this is a bit touristy - the tour is fine, but basic & a bit self-serving for the Lodge & tastes you get are red&white ports but not great (that was the general consensus at the tableUpvoteDownvote
🎧November 5, 2017Don’t expect too much from this experience - very touristic. Though all in all, it was worth that.

Rui CarvalhoJuly 25, 2017Muito bonita a visita. Moderna e atual a vertente interativa da visita. O Guia ajuda a perceber e a desvendar os segredos do néctar dos deuses. Recomendo.

Thais RitaJanuary 12, 2017Otimo tour pela caves. Preço abusivo para turistas. Alguns vinhos comerciais são bem mais baratos em mercados da região.
