This is a very friendly wine tour in a lovely setting - the team are funny and very kind. It's not a huge tour, but that doesn't matter. They are very knowledgable and the wine is delicious - and you get cheese and hams too - wonderful. We had a lot of fun! Thank you!

This is impressive, well organized and planned. On 3 levels that progress in time from the Iron Age (6th Century to today). The well was only discovered in 1990. I was pleasantly surprised and not bored, well done!

I am not relgious but i am drawn to places of worship from all religions. This chapel is just beautiful inside, The paintings above the alter are stunning. The chapel is tiny inside with a number of photographs from the 2016 Silves medieval festival along the walls. The chapel is just across from the cathedral ans well sign posted.

Our guide on the Eat.Drink.Discover food tour that we took in Lagos highly recommended that we make a visit to Quinta da Vinha - Cabrita winery, and we are so glad we did. The personable winemaker, Dinis, gave us a tour of this family-run winery, followed by the tasting in the very attractive tasting room. We were served a white, a red, and a rose, accompanied by various cheeses, meats, carob bread, fig jam (delicious), and a seafood salad. We were also given a taste of the Negra Mole, made with a native grape variety, when we expressed an interest in it. All wines were excellent; we went away with three bottles. An advance booking is requested (we called a day ahead), and it’s definitely worth the effort to do so. This was a very enjoyable experience.
