Full description

Spend a full day exploring the Setubal region of Portugal on a tour that takes you through the countryside to see castles and taste wine. Begin your trip by crossing the Tagus River on your way to the impressive Cabo Espiche on the westernmost point of the Sesimbra coastline. Then, it is time to go to the fishing town of Sesimbra and visit a Moorish castle. This seaport town also boasts plenty of beaches and restaurants serving fresh seafood. Nearby is Arrábida Natural Park, located on the shore of the Sado River estuary. Visit the famous beaches of Portinho da Arrábida and Figueirinha, before heading to Setubal for a fish lunch! After lunch you will make your way to the astonishing Arrabida Mountain. This is a protected (Arrabida Natural Park) area. Here you will visit a a small local family owned cellar in the middle of the peaceful Arrabida Mountain to learn more about how this precious nectar is made. You will see the vineyards, see how the process is completed and of course, taste the results. All this is done in the company of a local, in an informal and funny way.

Great combination of amazing views, some culture, a nice small city at the beach for having lunch (delicious fish!!) and having fun with a small but sociable group! I really do recommend this trip for some variety to the crowded City, Lisbon. Thanks a lot to our so pleasant guide Carolina and the Group who have made this day a wonderful one!

Our guide Nuno was amazing. He's very enthusiastic, professional and knowledgeable. We learned so much from him about the history and culture of each place, the wine industry in Portugal, some aspects of the Portuguese language and also the Portugese culture in general. He's very punctual. The van was very clean and comfortable and we had a great atmosphere throughout the day. Highly recommend this tour to anyone interested.

The guided tour was very good and highly recommended. First we drove to Cabo Espichel, then we made a stop at the Castle of Sesimbra and in Sesimbra itself, where we had about 1.5 hours of free time, and lastly we could taste delicious wine sorts. We stopped a few times on our way to the wine tasting and admired the beautiful views. Our tour guide, Tanja, was super nice and very competent. The best thing was that the sights weren't overrun by tourists and you got a glimpse into the life of the locals. We recommend!
