One of a kind experience - We very much enjoyed every part of our tour, including: -enjoyable and scenic drive from Lisbon -unique landscape at the farm -our tour guide Joana was highly knowledgeable and very personable. She made us feel welcome and comfortable from the moment we arrived. -interesting to learn about cork trees and their history, as well as grape and olive production in the area -excellent lunch at a nearby restaurant where we happened to meet the farm owner Philip. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone

Unique and fun opportunity - Really fun being in the back of a classic 4x4 Jeep and learning so much about the Alentejo region, cork, and wine. All our questions were answered. Simple wine tasting with Iberian Ham and regional cheese, and lunch at a local spot completed the experience. Joana was an excellent tour guide, and she knew her stuff. Quite the ambassador and a true asset for the company.

Love the Cork Forest tour - Joanna was an amazing tour guide and host! She shared both historical and current day practices with cork stripping and the wineries. We tasted samples of wines produced estate and later enjoyed a feast- what would have been served to the cork strippers. This tour is a must see! Joanna did such an amazing job, she deserves a raise 😉

Could not be better - Everything was perfect! Joana is a nice person, intelligent and easy going. The tour was interesting and not too long. Wines are perfect. I strongly recommend to try Senhor Doutor 2020!

Great Jeep Adventure - Joanna was a marvelous guide. She was kind, helpful and full of information. Finding our about the sustainability of the cork forest was crirical. The lunch was delicious.

Brilliant excursion- best family day trip - This excursion has been the highlight of our holiday in Portugal. We were a little apprehensive about taking our teenagers to a wine tasting and around a cork farm but we all had a great day. We were collected in a jeep from our hotel in Evora by Joana who took us to the farm, gave us a history of the vineyard and told us all about the cork industry which was fascinating. Our 12 year son particularly enjoyed hearing about the stripping process (yes the workers harvesting the cork are called strippers!). We were then taken to the family’s wine factory for a tasting and the wines and tapas were delicious (our kids were given juice). We then finished up by having some of the specialities and wine in a local restaurant before being dropped back at the hotel (which was a good job as we were over the drink drive limit by this stage). Joana is an excellent guide, speaks perfect English and knew so much about the local industries. If you are looking for a way to get those teenagers off screens and have a lovely family day out, then book this trip!

Amazing Learning Opportunity~ - I can't speak highly enough about Jose and his passion for keeping the farm alive for future generations. That lowly cork board or wine stopper will forever look differently to me along with the zillions of other products that can come from this amazing slow grow growing tree. Do yourself a favor and book this tour, you'll learn and see so much from a medieval trench near the cork trees to the new vineyards. If you're in luck you'll see the black pigs that come to graze the area.

Fabulous experience - Best afternoon in Evora area...beautiful countryside, informative guide and just downright fun cruising thru cork forest, vineyards in a jeep... We stayed in the farmhouse as well, the pictures don’t do it justice, just beautiful, and a wonderful family very attentive to all your needs...would go back again, at least 3-4 days...

Wonderful experience - Absolutely a wonderful tour, very informative and interesting. Antoine was so knowledgeable and kind. Would highly recommend doing this tour.

Fun and informative - The two-hour jeep tour of the cork forest/farm was the highlight of our stay in Evora. Our guide, Jose, was friendly and informative. The things we learned were fascinating and gave us a greater appreciation of the product we see in our wine bottles, and of the many cork products we saw for sale throughout Portugal. Cork is a huge part of the economy in this part of Portugal. The farm is about 45 minutes outside Evora but the drive there was scenic as well. Highly recommended.
