It was such an amazing experience, Miguel our guide was very friendly, knowledgeable and enthusiastic about everything. The wineries picked by Viator for this tour were beautiful and the wines incredible. One of the best part was the lunch we had at Quintela and the opening/tasting of a vintage. I’d recommend it to everyone!
