Algarve Wine Journey: Private Tour of Two Estate Wineries

Discover that the Algarve is one of Portugal's most exciting emerging wine regions on a private tour of two inland estate wineries, with cellar tours, barrel tastings and a curated regional lunch paired to local vintages.

What to expect

A private vehicle collects you dockside and heads into the rolling hills behind Portimão to two distinct Algarve estates — each offering a distinct terroir story, from indigenous Negra Mole and Alicante Bouschet reds to crisp Arinto whites. Cellar tours reveal traditional lagares alongside modern vinification, and the winemaker joins for at least one estate's tasting. Lunch is served under the vine canopy: artisan cheeses, presunto, fresh bread and a three-course meal paired to estate wines. Return in time for your all-aboard with a curated wine selection to take aboard.
