The lunch and wine tour was the most special and unmissable moment of the tour.

Thank you. It was definitely in the top five adventures in our 9 country tour!
The experience was phenomenal, and we are already checking our calendars to see how soon we can come back!
Jacinto was prompt and knowledgeable, the weather was perfect, and the wine was fantastic. Choosing the best part is tough. Nothing could ever beat the chef's signature lunch at Herdade do Esporão, except maybe the view right outside their restaurant.
We also loved the hotel (especially the pool) and just walking around Évora. Every winery we visited was well worth it; the tour guides were so friendly and helpful, the facilities were unique, and we were definitely introduced to foods and wines that we would have missed out on. It was the trip of a lifetime! Thank you for making it happen. You'll be hearing from us again—and hopefully soon 🙂
Thank you so much,
Mike
There are so many highlights! I especially loved the sailboat ride and my husband loved the visit to Quinta das Carvalhas.
I also really loved that visit. Our tour guide there was just the best. And their wines are delicious! Fortunately, we can buy them here in South Carolina!
"The most unmissable moments on the tour were the Douro scenery, the friendly people, and the fabulous driver (Augusto)."
Thank you very much for providing us with such a wonderful experience. The organization was great, our driver Augusto was absolutely fantastic and the wine program/tours and tastings were superb.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend your company to anyone.
Thank you again!
Thank you to everyone there for the amazing service in working with us over the past several years to make this trip a success!
As a group we made a few notes of items to mention for feedback:
We liked how you made sure we went to different types of wineries and all the accommodations were very nice.
You guys did a fantastic job and our driver was FANTASTIC! We have recommended you to numerous of our friends since we have been back.
Thank you for everything! We loved your beautiful country, fantastic wines, and very friendly people!!
Sincerely,

We are all safely home now, and mostly recovered from the jet lag! I think we would all agree that our trip was excellent, and is one we'll remember forever. Vítor was dependable, knowledgeable, and helpful in every way possible.
There are so many highlights of the tour that it really is impossible to pick out just one. Ann and I compared our thoughts, and we came up with two - the incredible lunch at DOC on the bank of the Douro River (nine courses, I believe) and an almost equally amazing lunch at Barão Fladgate in Porto. We also really enjoyed an unexpectedly nice lunch in Lisbon at Gambrinus, and our tour and wine tasting at Quinta da Bacalhoa.
Other "finalists" for the highlights list are the rooftop dinner at Rossio Gastrobar Restaurant in Lisbon, the palaces of Cascais, the wine tasting and lunch at Sao Lourenco do Barrocal and the fabulous lunch at Terracu's Restaurant at Quinta Nova.
Martha Jane and Linda will probably have their own highlights to mention. I know they had many lunches, tours, and sights that they were amazed by!
Thanks for your help in pulling all the trip details together so well. You have been a pleasure to work with from start to finish.
We really enjoyed our time in Quinta de Chocapalha, one of the locations chosen by Wine Tourism in Portugal. What an amazing family and experience.
We will never forget it,

We are highly satisfied with the tour made with WINTP. From the number of experiences included, to the itinerary's customization level.

We had an amazing time on the tour of the Douro Valley! Our guide was the highlight, he was outstanding and made the trip down and back there even better.
He was so informative and made sure we had everything we needed. We stayed a little later at the last Quinta, and he was patient with us when we were ordering wines which we greatly appreciated since he was giving up his time.
Thanks so much for helping to organize this fantastic day for us!
The Experience chosen by you was amazing, we should have booked more time. Our drivers Alcides (Junior) and Maria took the trip to the next level.
Kudos,

Hello, I just finished our tour today and I wanted to say how pleased I was with everything, start to finish. As were all my clients.
From the beginning of the booking, everything was handled so well.
The driver/guides today could not have been any more helpful and informative, two very nice men, interesting to talk with, and good, safe drivers.
I would certainly recommend your company and plan to. I will also look forward to working with you in the near future.
Best,
We are extremely satisfied: from wine related activities, to the restaurants and cruises chosen by Wine Tourism in Portugal.
The assistance given during planning and conception of the itinerary got us really satisfied, as well.
Lunch was delicious.
We loved our tour in Alentejo.
While each day was packed with so many wonderful things from start to finish, the highlight for us was the lunch at Herdade do Esporão. We thoroughly enjoyed each course with wine pairing. (and We enjoyed our leisure time in Monsaraz after).
I look forward to returning to Portugal again and using your services soon.
Best,
Sharon
The personalization, the guides, the food and service were the most special moments of the tour.
Ivo is a great driver and tour guide. He made our experience a pleasure! The views from Quinta do Seixo are phenomenal.
Thank you so much for being patient with me as you worked out my itinerary. I really appreciated your patience while I decided on the specific dates of my trip and I liked how you handled all the details, including providing me with the "Road Book''.
All the places you arranged for me to stay were of the highest quality and the service was excellent. Both of the winery tours and the tastings were a lot of fun. I especially like Quinta de Mata Mouros, and my guide Vanessa couldn't have been nicer. She was very knowledgeable about Quinta de Mata Mouros, their wines, and the entire Silves area. In fact, I have 6 bottles of their wine being shipped to me right now.
I really like the Anantara Vilamoura Resort - an exquisite room and an exceptional property. I was very pleased with the 3HB room in Faro, and the room at the Pousada Convento, in Tavira. I really liked the slower pace in Tavira, and had a great day at the beach (on the island - don't remember the name).
All of these experiences you organized for me were great, and I will highly recommend you to anyone I talk to who is interested in a fantastic experience in the Algarve.
My entire trip had many highlights. For the Portugal portion, the winery tour and tasting at Quinta de Mata Mouros was probably the highlight, including the drive there and touring Silves (the castle and cathedral afterward. A fantastic day!
Thank you again for all of your help in arranging my trip to Portugal. Can't wait to come back to the Algarve.
All the Best to You,
Grant
Private tour and activities were the most special and unmissable moments! Unique experiences that can't be made on our own.
We absolutely loved our private wine tour!!! Our driver, Maria was amazing and so sweet! The wineries were beautiful and all the guides were very knowledgeable and accommodating. We would highly recommend this tour!!!
Thank you, Kurt and Nina
