We booked this tour by whatsapp and it was the best day that we’ve had in Portgual until now. we tasted almost 10 different wines (winehouse, restaurat and winery) the small restaurant has one of the best meats that ever ate and the winery itself was unbelievable because we entered their facilities while bottling the sparkling wine. 100% recommended.
Tour magnífico, fomos muito bem recebidos no Porto.
Chegamos em lamego, comemos uma torta com presunto sensacional bebemos vinho do Porto, visitamos o museu e o santuário.
A visita a fábrica de espumante da Murganheira também valeu muito a pena pq foram 6 taças de champagne.
