This is one of Portugal’s oldest family-owned cellars, currently in its 7th generation. This winery is a staple in our day’s itinerary.

Wine and food experience you don't want to miss - Rod (Rodrigo) was an amazing guide. From an on time pick up to his outstanding knowledge of wine helped make this an incredible experience we will definitely do again. The wineries were awesome, especially Lobo Winery (www.assislobowines.com). Anna (she runs it with her 2 brothers) was a gracious host and worked in concert with Rod to make an exceptional wine tasting experience. Lunch was at Restaurante A Linete. Let me tell you. You will want to travel the 30 min from Lisbon to eat here. Very quaint family owned place that serves amazing fish and chocolate mousse. Highly recommend you pick this tour and ask for Rod as your guide. We would give 6 stars if we could.

Relaxed and winey Wine tour to Setubal - Great day activity, two very different wineries but lovely wine in both. Finished off with a nice lunch (with more wine) in Linetes.
Excellently guided by Rodrigo, a very entertaining character:)

A must-do wine experience - Rod was amazing!! He took us to two fantastic wineries, Fonseca and Lobo. Fonseca was gorgeous and Lobo was DELISH! I’d recommend this tour to anyone. It’s the perfect half day.

Great day in the countryside, exploring wine and history! - This was a private tour that met all expectations. Two unique and different wineries plus a tasting at a spot in one of the rows that gave a great variety. John very knowledgeable and hospitable. The snack plate at the 2nd winery was enough to satisfy with local meats and cheeses plus great wines. If you are looking for some time outside of Lisbon this is a great day with very personal attention. Appreciated all John’s efforts, he was a great guide! Wines were lovely!

Great tour! - We had a great time on this tour. Ricardo was guide and he was absolutely fabulous! He took extra time to make everyone in our party understood what he was saying. We went to two wineries, one very large and one small. We enjoyed both, but Assis Lobo was the best. It was very nice to have a small intimate tasting with the owners of the winery. We then had a fantastic lunch at a local restaurant. The seafood was fantastic. We throughly enjoyed every moment of this tour. I would highly recommend it.

Excellent day trip to... - Excellent day trip to Setubal. We did 2 wine tastings and lunch. First stop at JMF winery was very informative with 2 excellent wines. Second stop included 5 tastings, all excellent. Lunch was superb at A Linete, you should go there even if not on a tour. Rodrigo was extremely knowledgable and a capable guide. Great day!

Highly recommended; we would book with this organizer again. - It was a great day; we saw a lot, although not about the production, but about the storage and handling of wine. Of course, with appropriate tastings. Joao is a fantastic guide; he knows the background and explains everything clearly. Just a very nice day in Portugal.

Wine Time in Setúbal! - We had a tasty day with Rod visiting 3 wineries in the Setubal area. He was very knowledgeable about all the wines we sampled. We visited a large winery, a small family winery and a large wine store that sold all the wines from the area. The weather was sunny and most wines were very good.

Not worth your time or money on this wine tour. - We traveled with 4 adults on this private tour. The car was way too small for the 4 of us plus driver and uncomfortable. We expected a van. The first winery was beautiful but the wine tasting experience was very poor. Not much information shared and two pours which was sub par. I asked to try a white wine but was told no, even and I offered to pay for it. Second winery was disappointment as far as the experience since it was in a small tasting room with little chairs. I wish our tour guide would let the owner talk more about the wines and her business. The wine was good. We have done many wine tours which cost a lot less and were so much better. We definitely did not get what we paid for. Expected so much more than a crammed car ride and sitting in a small room sampling wine. Also the tour said including cheese and we had no cheese.
