A wonderful day!
A great tour with Sergio as our driver and guide. The two wineries were very different but provided a terrific selection of wines in the area. The market stop was certainly a highlight as well as lunch at the beach. Simply a wonderful experience!

Good Day Out
Enjoyed our trip. We were hosted by Ugo, who was friendly and gave lengthy explanations about the locality. The only negative in the trip was the sheer amount of driving involved. I think we spent about four hours in the van at least. Unfortunately, the traffic was not kind to us. On the whole though, the choice of wineries and local scenery was excellent, as was the lunchtime food stop.

So much more than just wine
A fantastic way to see more of Portugal from Lisbon. This tour has it all- wine tasting, lunch at the beach, Cristo Rei with views of Lisbon and an amazing fish market. Thank you Maria for a great tour with just the right amount of history and context.

A lovely day off the beaten track
What a great day! Our guide, Joao, provided us with a very enjoyable visit to two wineries where we were able to sample several Portuguese wines. We visited a medieval castle and stopped at the lovely beachside fishing village of Sesimbra for lunch. It was well worth the trip!

Arrabida and Sesimbra Small-Group Day Trip from Lisbon with Wine Tasting: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lisbon.
How much does Arrabida and Sesimbra Small-Group Day Trip from Lisbon with Wine Tasting cost?
+
Prices start at €36 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Lisbon usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Arrabida and Sesimbra Small-Group Day Trip from Lisbon with Wine Tasting take?
+
Plan for about 9 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Lisbon is not rushed.
Is Arrabida and Sesimbra Small-Group Day Trip from Lisbon with Wine Tasting worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 86 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 588 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Lisbon, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Arrabida and Sesimbra Small-Group Day Trip from Lisbon with Wine Tasting?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Arrabida and Sesimbra Small-Group Day Trip from Lisbon with Wine Tasting suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Arrabida and Sesimbra Small-Group Day Trip from Lisbon with Wine Tasting?
+
Around 206 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Lisbon can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Lisbon and add a light layer if any part of the 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Arrabida and Sesimbra Small-Group Day Trip from Lisbon with Wine Tasting start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Lisbon within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Lisbon?
+
On Outty we rank every Lisbon experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Lisbon City Center Tour - The Unmissable Lisbon, Sintra Private Trip from Lisbon Customizable Dreamlike Experience, True 4Hour Private Tuk Tuk Tour: Discover Lisbon with a Local!. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Lisbon?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Lisbon?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
