Even though I had booked the walk in the forest tour, we were driven in a small suv to the orchards/vineyards. We got out of the vehicle in a few places. Here we learned about how the vineyard started and all about the holm and cork oak trees. The driving tour actually worked better for our group. Our guide Ricardo was fantastic. He was knowledgeable and funny. We new nothing about the cork trees and the cork industry. After this tour we had a much better understanding. We also did the wine tasting that had cheese and presunto, delicious. Next we had a 4 course lunch at a local restaurant. We throughly enjoyed our day with Corktrekking!
