What's included in the EUR 110 price?

The tour includes guided tastings of olive oils, regional wines, and fresh fish dishes from local producers, a 6-hour walking experience, and access to skip-the-line at any ticketed producer sites. Food and beverage tastings are central to the experience; confirm whether lunch is fully included or partially covered.

Do I need transport from Lisbon, or do I arrange it myself?

The tour operates south of Lisbon; the supplier should confirm whether group transport is included or if you meet at a designated starting point. Ask about pickup/dropoff locations and estimated travel time from central Lisbon when you book.

Are there vegetarian or vegan options?

Fish and meat-based dishes feature prominently, but olive oil and wine tastings suit all diets. Notify the supplier of dietary needs at booking; they can often arrange alternatives at producer stops, though options may be limited.

How large are the groups?

The tour is designed as an intimate experience with local producers, implying smaller group sizes (typically 8–12 people). Confirm group size limits when booking to ensure the personal, story-focused nature is preserved.

Is this tour physically demanding?

Yes—it involves 6 hours of walking between producer sites in a region with some uneven terrain. It's moderate pace, not strenuous, but comfortable walking shoes and reasonable fitness are essential.

Can I buy products directly from the producers?

Yes, most artisanal producers offer their olive oils, wines, and other specialities for sale. This is a great opportunity to purchase directly at source, though bring extra luggage space if you plan to ship items back home.
