Tavira : Guidad bordsoliver fabrikstur och provsmakningsupplevelse

This tour was really intresting and the guide was fenomenal! We really liked to tasting different olives, the spicy sauce, bread and the Wine.

The time of the year (August) meant there were no olives to be seen in their habitat as they are picked already due to the season. However, what was amazing was the presentation by Andrea and the work of her mother and sister. This is a strong female, women business who are doing so much to ensure decent olives. The presentation went through their production process including chillis, which was so cool to see. At the end we got to sample a fantastic selection of olives, olive oil, chilli olive oil. Bread and hams with lemonade and or many different wines. Their little shop was great. I can’t wait to visit again with a bigger suitcase as to ensure I can take more home, next time. When I arrived I was unwell, feeling dizzy and bought a lovely wine and meats. They gave me a free shot of port- on the recommendation of a visiting local lady who supplies the wines. It picked me up!

Excellent experience from start to finish from Andrea and her sister, Liliana. We travelled from Albufeira to do the tour and it didn’t disappoint. It was great to hear Andrea speak so passionately about what they do at the factory. Even for a self confessed foodie, I still learned a lot. After the tour we tasted various types of olives, olive oils, cheese, charcuterie, honey, jam and marmalade. All washed down with delicious rosé wine. We also tasted Andrea’s homemade lemonade and some red and white wines. Everything was amazing! We weren’t rushed at all and were shown such incredible hospitality. I could have stayed there all evening! I honestly can’t recommend this enough. If you’re in Tavira, this tour is a must.

Wonderful experience! Will definitely recommend to friends visiting Portugal!

Really enjoyed the tour. Our guide Andrea was exceptional. There were plenty of olives for sampling and wine, ham and cheese. There is a really nice shop too selling all sorts of artisan wares.

I truly enjoyed this tour and the information provided on olive oil production. It was fun and entertaining, food and olive oil tasting was real satisfying. It is a small family business that you support by visiting (and maybe purchasing a gift in their shop). Within walking distance from Tavira. Thank you so much and keep up the good work!

Experience was entertaining and interesting. We were shown the process and machines as well as being able to taste 5 varieties. The tasting included meat, cheese and breads as well as olive oil, sauces and a fig balsamic vinegar that was amazing. Several types of wine and home-made lemonade were served as well. The little shop had lots of product. This was well worth the time and money!!

Andrei made us feel welcome from the start. We were early. And there was somewhere to sit and have a drink if you wanted. She was enthusiastic and knowledgeable throughout the tour. Then we got to sample their olives and oil. With some ham cheese and Mama s home made bread. And a wee glass of vino. An excellent experience.

We had a great tour, where we gained insight about the harvest and the further processing process. From edible olives to olive oil. Then we were able to taste the different types of olives extensively. It was just super interesting!!

The team were so lovely and welcoming - a lovely local business with great staff and amazing olives and wine ! (And homemade peach lemonade!)
