Peaceful trip out to the Algarve Countryside - We were greeted by Cátia outside the Hotel entrance, she was very polite and welcoming. The minibus had air conditioning controls in the back so you could travel in comfort. Fortunately for us, the other 2 participants who were meant to be on the trip, got their days mixed up, so the 3 of us had the trip to ourselves. It was about a 20-30 drive out to Silves, where we got to pass through the typical Algarve villages and towns along the way. As you drop in to Silves, keep your eyes peeled for all the Storks nested around. Plenty to see! We stopped at the Castle in Silves for around 30 mins, where we enjoyed some refreshments at the cafe. Try the freshly squeezed orange juice, very sweet! From there it was further drive out into the countryside, where you pass the biggest plantation of orange trees in the Algarve, we learnt about the Cork trees in the area, Almond and Avocado. Then we arrived at the winery and we're shown around and learnt about the process of making wine, this lasted about 20 minutes. Now the best bit, the wine tasting. We took our seats out under the veranda with the fantastic views, the sun just starting to set over the mountains. A selection of cheese, meats and crackers are brought out to you along with trio of wines. We had a lot of fun, tried the extra wines they had to offer and finished the afternoon off by watch the sunset on the terrace. A very chilled and relaxing afternoon out. Thank you to the staff at the winery and to Cátia for being a wonderful tour guide.

An excellent vintage of tour - Great scenery with lots of interesting points on route to the winery. You’ll be whisked through the countryside, giving the chance to appreciate the valleys away from the coast. Including a stop at the historical town of Silves. The winery is situated in a serene location, where you’ll have ample opportunity to sample the produce, see the production process and vineyards. Doorstop collection/drop off helps makes this a super relaxed tour to take too
