Bright Side of Lisbon - Gift Shop
Cross the Ponte 25 de Abril suspension bridge is one of Lisbon’s most notable landmarks as it spans the River Tagus at the narrowest point. This massive bridge closely resembles that of the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco and the date name remembers the Portuguese Carnation Revolution of 25 April 1974. The suspension bridge connects Lisbon, on the north bank, with the commuter districts of Alameda on the south bank. The bridge is a distinctive landmark of Lisbon and crossing the Ponte 25 de Abril bridge makes for a fantastic entrance to Lisbon.

Bacalhoa Vinhos de Portugal
Visit the headquarters of our company are situated at the Bassaqueira estate. In 1997, Bacalhôa Vinhos de Portugal settled in this viticultural area of Azeitão, in the heart of the Setúbal Peninsula. The main building is hexagonal in shape with an innovative design and execution both for the winery itself and its offices. It is both creative and efficient, which sets off to perfection the traditional magical atmosphere of cellars where thousands of bottles and seemingly endless rows of casks are laid down for the ageing of wine. The vineyards surrounding the property are planted with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah varieties of grapes. The wine-making centre processes grapes from the estate and also grapes from all its properties situated in the Setúbal Peninsula. This is the centre of operations for the bottling and warehousing of the finished product. It is extensive and spreads over a number of buildings, including areas for the reception of grapes and classical wine making, fermentation in barrels, warehousing, bottling preparation, bottling lines, ageing of fortified wines and ageing in bottles. In addition to these various production areas, the estate includes the company's central winery, a wine shop, various sculptures, ruins of interest, panels of hand-painted Portuguese tiles, vineyards and a lake. All these stand in magnificent gardens, outstanding features of which are the thousand-year-old olive trees. It is this harmonious diversity which renders the Bassaqueira estate unique. An absolute must to visit with tickets and wine taste included.

Cabo Espichel
Visit Cabo Espichel is the dramatic headland at the south-western tip of the Setubal Peninsula. This is an exposed coastline buffeted by strong winds and powerful seas, and is ideal for visitors who appreciate nature’s raw beauty. The Cabo Espichel was an important pilgrimage destination, and there is a unique church with attached pilgrim’s accommodation. Positioned at the top of the cliffs and protecting shipping from these dangerous cliffs is Portugal’s’ brightest lighthouse. The highly weathered cliffs have exposed two different sets of dinosaur footprints, and these are reached via the numerous hiking trails that cross the headland.

Hugo made the trip great
We really enjoyed the wine tour. Our guide, Hugo, discribed the history and country side of Portugal , the first winery was outstanding, the tour and how they did the tasting was first class. This lunch was interesting having a Portuguese fish lunch , wish we had more time to explore the village. We then traveled to an only church next to the ocean. The next winery was very old and made you feel that you were in an 1900s winery with the old barrels of wine, the tasting seemed too rushed, but we did have time to sample the wines. If you are lucky enough to have Hugo as your guide he will make the tour great. He is friendly fluent in English and seems to be able to answer any question. By the end of the tour you felt like you were being taken around by an old friend.

Unprofessional tour guide/Worst experience ever
Multiple issues with this tour, booked through Viator. We booked a private tour for 2. At the last minute 3 additional people were added to our booking. Our pickup was 1 1/2 hours later than we were told. And then we had to drive another 30 minutes to pick up the 3 additional travelers who were added. Side note: they had also booked a private tour. We were all told in a last minute email the night before that there had been a double booking. Didn’t buy that line. The tour guide brought along his girlfriend for the day. On a tour where the customer is paying for a private tour - there absolutely should not be anyone else tagging along for the day to keep the tour guide company. So, 7 adults were stuffed into a small, and poorly maintained car that would barely be comfortable for 4 passengers. We should have been travelling in a larger touring van. The driver didn’t know where he was going and frequent arguments in Portuguese with his girlfriend ensued about directions. The guide was an aggressive driver and constantly drove in excess of the speed limit, passing in no passing zones, and with complete disregard for any other vehicle or pedestrian in his way. The winery tours were very brief, as we were constantly late for our bookings due to the tour guide’s late pickup of us in the morning. He took us to a castle, which was closed on that date. He should have known what was open to visit on our day of travel. Lunch at the beach was to have been included. However we were presented with a bill for our desserts, and the family that were traveling with us had to pay for their meal as two of them didn’t eat seafood (nothing was stated about this in the description of the tour). We were promised a visit to the Christo Rei statue on our return to Lisbon, but by the time we were returning, we were told “Too bad, it’s to late to go now because it’s closed”. In any case, by that time we were desperate to get back to our hotel and to end the worst tour experience we have ever been subjected to. I would never recommend this tour company and I certainly wouldn’t recommend booking anything through Viator as they have been extremely dismissive in our requests to issue a full refund. I’m giving this tour a “1” rating, only because I’m not able to give anything less.

There were ups and downs with the...
<p>There were ups and downs with the tour.<br/> The car arrived late and despite marketed as a private tour, there were others in the van and not just our group 6 persons.<br/> Our guide Joao was a pleasant man, knowledgable but not very informative if one did not put questions to him. Great driver though.<br/> There should have been included three vineyards of which one was cancelled. The first one, Bacalhoa, had a museum part with sculptures, ceramic tiles and an amazing collection of art deco and art noveau furnitures and objects. Fortunately we had had Bacalhoa's better wines in restaurants because at the tasting they just served 3 wines from the cheap end. The second vineyard, Jose Maria de Fonseca was interesting with a good guide, but with many groups at the same time and with the same comment about the the wines.<br/> The luch restaurant was in Sesimbra perfectly situated at the sea shore.<br/> Conclusion: If you are interested in wines, this is not the trip for you. If you are interested in old Potuguese ceramic tiles and furniture, Bacalhoa is definitely worth a visit.</p>

Setúbal Private Full Day Wine Tour with Tasting and Lunch at the Beach: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lisbon.
How much does Setúbal Private Full Day Wine Tour with Tasting and Lunch at the Beach cost?
+
Prices start at $389 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 Setúbal Private Full Day Wine Tour with Tasting and Lunch at the Beach take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Setúbal Private Full Day Wine Tour with Tasting and Lunch at the Beach worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 48 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Lisbon, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Setúbal Private Full Day Wine Tour with Tasting and Lunch at the Beach?
+
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 Setúbal Private Full Day Wine Tour with Tasting and Lunch at the Beach suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Setúbal Private Full Day Wine Tour with Tasting and Lunch at the Beach?
+
Around 1 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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Setúbal Private Full Day Wine Tour with Tasting and Lunch at the Beach 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.
