Very highly recommended, enjoyable, reliable. - Very highly recommended. Really enjoyable, interesting, fun tour. Reliable and helpful. We were kept well informed throughout. Picked up at hotel and taken to tour minibus, by Joao, comfortably and on time. He was conversational and interesting. Good timings, never rushed. Carlos was the driver, very good to all the clients, gave interesting and relevant descriptions throughout the tour. First stop was to see the castle from road in, spectacular views and lots of storks nesting nearby ( even more in Silves itself) . Silves was a nice town to wander through and to see the castle. Then on to briefly see cork trees and descriptions of cork production etc. Winery visit was fantastic, with a great tasting session ( we were also able to pay and add a few more tasting wines, ) Winery staff were really lovely. Nice views from terrace and balcony. Then return. Very sociable tour, as well as informative. Interaction with, and support of, us all was superb. Very highly recommended, and we’re doing the whole day tour with them in a few days time!

We enjoyed the visit... - We enjoyed the visit! The guide was excellent and shared a wealth of fascinating information. The explanations regarding the vineyard were clear and comprehensive. However, the wines selected for the tasting fell short of our expectations. The visit to Silves Castle was too short (20 minutes).
