5An excellent trip!
Excellent, from the knowledge of the vineyard owner of the vineyard, the care of the vines and the production of the wine, to the hospitality of the family following the tour, all excellent! The drinks and tapas were lovely and so well presented, again with information from the family about what we were drinking. The vineyard was set in lovely surroundings, we were not rushed, there was time for another purchased glass of wine following the tasting. The guide that picked us up was friendly and provided us with a Portuguese tart and almond liqueur for our trip back to the drop off point. A truly lovely trip, well worth a visit
2Disappointing and misleading
Booked this a week in advance as the winery tour and wine tasting looked great. When we were picked up our driver informed us that due to it being a public holiday the normal venue was closed so we were going to another location. Turned out there was no tour, just wine tasting. The visit lasted just under an hour and not the 3 hours advertised. This was very disappointing as we were charged E60 each. I think we should have been contacted by the company and given option to cancel. Positive note the lady who explained the wine tasting was very good, as we're the two drivers who picked us up and dropped us off.
3Wine tasting but not a tour of vineyard
Waited 1/2 at meeting place for pickup. The tour was described as visiting the vineyards and a wine tasting. We had a very nice wine tasting and explanation by owner. We were expecting a walk around vineyard to be included
5Bostin’ Afternoon out!!
Don’t worry about long walks through miles of vineyards … it’s a gentle stroll to them and then onto the winery
5The experience was really...
The experience was really nice. Well explained and showed around the wine yard. The charcuterie and wine were really nice and the staff was really nice and attentive.
5Wine Tasting experience
Brilliant experience. Cody (driver) was super at pointing out different spots/areas on the way to & from the experience. The almond alcohol beverage was amazing that he provided. The wine tour itself was brilliant. The owner is a wealth of knowledge. Her wines are fantastic, we got to try 5 of them and each one was super. Personally I wouldn’t drink a red wine, but after sampling the wines they have created., I’ll definitely be more open to trying more.

About Albufeira
Albufeira is a former fishing town on Portugal's Algarve coast, with whitewashed old streets, sandy coves below red cliffs and a long summer season.
Albufeira was a fishing town under Moorish rule, its name coming from the Arabic for a lagoon, and its old town still climbs a hill above the water in a tangle of whitewashed alleys and arches. A tunnel leads down to the Fishermen's Beach, where boats once landed their catch, and the clock tower and parish church stand in the centre.
