Wine tour to Silves - We had a great afternoon and learned a lot about Portuguese wine making. João was a very nice and enthusiastic guide. We would definitely recommend the tour.

Great Tour - Turns out we were the only couple on the tour. So our guide, Paoa, who was extremely knowledgeable, gave us his individual attention. We both greatly enjoyed the afternoon. Castle in Silves was fun to explore. Spent a fair amount of time there. The old church in front of the castle was good too. Best parts of the day were his explanation of the process of harvesting cork and of course the wine tour. Because it was a smaller winery you got to see the entire production. We ended up buying 6 bottles to take back to the condo. Just a most enjoyable tour.

A fantastic experience in Tavira! - We truly enjoyed our tour of Tavira — it’s such a beautiful city! Our guide had a wonderful sense of humor and shared unique insights and local stories that we never would have discovered on our own. The tapas and wine portion of the tour at Ti Maria was absolutely exceptional — delicious food, great atmosphere, and the perfect way to end the day. Highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Tavira!

Wine tasting very private - Our guide was an incredibly personable person who brought us closer to his homeland with a lot of passion! We were lucky and there were only six of us-that was perfect! The wine was delicious!
