# Algarve wine tour and mountain top trip with lunch or dinner at sunset time

**Guidekin's take:** Two Algarve wineries with a wine expert and three tastings at each, then a drive up to the region's highest peak for a full lunch or sunset dinner with house wine at a mountain restaurant. Groups are capped at eight and need two people per booking; tapas at the wineries cost extra. 4.97 from 107 reviews at €147 per person.

## Overview

Join an intimate wine tour of two local vineyards/farms and their cellars, guided by a wine expert and learn about all the process of winemaking, from the vineyard to the bootle. Enjoy tasting three types of wine at each vineyard, while you learn more about wine flavours and how to better degustate.
Then ascend to the highest peak in the Algarve region of southern Portugal. Feast on a lunch or dinnner with view to the coastline sunset in a mountain top restaurant with some of the best Portuguese cuisine specialties and a panoramic view over Algarve.
