On this one day, luxury wine tour, you will visit two prestigious and unique wineries and a tile workshop, in a beautiful area just south of Lisbon.
Much has been written about the first propriety you will visit, but the conclusion is always the same: it’s a masterpiece, dating back to the 14th century. The Bacalhôa Palace and the Winery have a unique setting, dating back to the founders of the Avis dynasty, including beautiful, Portuguese hand-painted tiles from the XV and XVI centuries.

Also included in this tour is a wine tasting of 4 wines.
Built in the 19th century, the second winery you will visit was restored in 1923. With a charming facade and gardens of a very special beauty, the Casa-Museu has always been associated with the image of this historical winery. Here you will enjoy a private guided tour, including the old cellars where the oldest Moscatels of Setúbal rest – some of which are authentic relics over 100 years old. You will also have a wine tasting session, accompanied by a board of regional products.
To end the day, visit a local working tile workshop which uses the European traditional methods of tile making, and reproduces antique designs from European countries and also Islamic and Chinese. Learn all about these hand painted tiles on a guided tour and, even, make your own tile!
