This was an excellent experience. Our host was wonderful and provided a great overview of the wines and the estate. We sat on a long table with other guests, which is a great concept, so we managed to make new friends and share experiences, which was great! The weather was perfect, which really helped and was a surprise for January. The sun was blazing, we enjoyed great wine, good food and received a great presentation of the wine's from our wonderful host....what more could we want?! I definitely recommend this experience! Unfortunately our Uber driver was unable to find the venue to pick us up, but our host, kindly assisted by calling a local taxi company to collect us - she definitely went the extra mile with her customer service and we really appreciated it. The delay in leaving allowed us to experience the wonderful sunset from the estate, which was lovely! Thank you Morgado Do Quintão & Thank you GetYourGuide for including the experience & having a great customer service team!!

This was a fabulous tour to learn about some of the history of the Algarve region, explore some unique areas, like the thermal spa in Caldas, appreciate the amazing views on top of the mountain, and end the day enjoying some wonderful wine at a local winery. Antonio is an exceptional guide for this tour. He is extremely knowledgeable about the area, willing to answer all questions, and is super friendly. We even stopped at a site along the way to observe the hundred nesting white storks. It was a truly enjoyable day and I would highly recommend this tour to appreciate more about the Algarve region.

We had an awesome time! We saw hidden parts of the Algarve region and the most beautiful parts around Albufeira! The guide was very friendly and helpful. He gave us alot of information about the region’s history and festivities, and took loads of photos for us. Very enjoyable if you enjoy bumping roads in the beautiful countryside and meeting new people.

Very great experience. I have been called 1 day before and Tour Operator suggested to swap quad to buggy as they were getting customers feedback that riding quad for 6 hours is not really comfy for 2 people on it. We agreed to swap and this was really good decision as otherwise riding one quad with two people on it will be overkilling.

It's a perfect surfing lesson for beginners. Raphael is really kind and a great teacher. He tells you how to enjoy the waves so that you don't feel nervous. If you travel to Albufeira, make sure to learn surfing with them! Enjoying the sea with your eyes and experiencing it with your body are completely different dimensions.
