One not to miss when visiting Porto - Very informative tour and just the right length. Well worth the price, we had chosen the port tasting with cheese and crisps for at the end of the tour. Plenty for two people with well chosen cheeses to match the different ports. To reach the venue it is up hill and those with mobility issues may find it difficult but other than that I would highly recommend

I had such a wonderful... - I had such a wonderful experience at the port tasting in Porto. The session was really informative and I learned so much about the history and production of port. The wines themselves were absolutely delicious, each one with its own unique character. The staff were so warm and welcoming, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Porto.

Educational tour, delicious ports - Fabulous tour and Classic Tasting with Jeronimo! We learned a lot about the history and process of port winemaking, and the three port samples at the end were delicious. Highly recommend.

Cockburn tour and tasting - Great informative tour of Cockburn cellars and tasting of three ports. The cellars are impressive and the tour guide was very informative. The chocolate for the kids was also lovely. My husband always thought he disliked tawny port but after tasting Cockburn’s 10 year old Tawny he realised he loves it and purchased a bottle. Would definitely recommend the tour.

Visit to the winery and tasting - Wonderful experience! Despite a delay, the staff organized a private mini tour of the winery, followed by a tasting of excellent Port accompanied by excellent cheeses. Special thanks to Giovanni, very kind and very prepared. Highly recommended!

Nice winery with excellent wines - We went with the family and we really liked the winery but what we liked the most were the explanations of the winemaker in charge of the guided tour. Although it is a little far removed (but with bus line from Porto) the visit for its duration, wine tasting and explanations given, they totally deserve that little extra effort. It is advisable to taste accompanied by cheeses that can be purchased right there. For minors, wines are replaced by natural juices.
