Lisbon Northern Region Wine Tasting Private Tour

Summary Description

Meet your guide at your hotel or port for the 45-minute or so drive from Lisbon to Cheleiros, and leave the city behind for a scenic landscape of grape vines and farm fields. Learn the history of the 14th-century parish then taste a series of the region’s wines—find out how local families are using traditional Portuguese grape varieties to re-energize Cheleiros wine, producing some bottles made solely with unique Jampal grapes. Try six different wines then experience two iconic local products at an olive oil and bread tasting.

Continue to Quinta da Murta, a Bucelas winery that produces Portugal’s most celebrated white wine from the Arinto grape, which Romans introduced to this region over 2,000 years ago. Sample three wines from the DOC-recognized Bucelas area then explore the village's quiet center. Take advantage of this private tour to customize the experience to your interests and needs, by visiting historic sites, strolling the vineyards or just soaking up the country charm of Portugal’s rural towns. Finish the day with return transfer to your Lisbon hotel or port.
