A really special day beyond the usual Lisbon tours
This tour was such a nice surprise. We wanted to do something different from the usual sightseeing in Lisbon, and this ended up being one of the most memorable parts of our trip. The tile painting workshop was a lovely experience. It felt personal and creative, and it was great to take home something we had actually made ourselves instead of just another souvenir. The wine tasting was also very enjoyable, and the stop in Sesimbra gave the day a beautiful coastal feeling. What we liked most was the variety. In one day we got local culture, traditional crafts, wine, sea views, good food, and some really beautiful scenery. It never felt rushed, and the whole experience had a relaxed, local atmosphere. The guide made everything feel easy and well organized, while still keeping the day personal and flexible. It felt like a genuine way to discover a different side of Portugal, not just a standard tour. Highly recommend this if you want something authentic, creative, and a bit more meaningful than a normal day trip.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We are delighted to hear that this experience became one of the most memorable parts of your trip to Portugal. It means a lot to know that you enjoyed discovering a different side of Lisbon and the surrounding region through local culture, traditional crafts, wine, food, sea views, and beautiful scenery. We are especially happy that you enjoyed the Portuguese tile painting workshop. Creating your own tile is such a meaningful way to connect with Portugal’s artistic heritage, and we love knowing that you were able to take home something personal and handmade rather than just a regular souvenir. It is also wonderful to hear that you enjoyed the wine tasting, the stop in Sesimbra, and the relaxed coastal atmosphere of the day. Our goal is always to create authentic private experiences from Lisbon that feel personal, flexible, and genuinely local, not like a standard sightseeing tour. Thank you again for recommending our experience. It was a pleasure to welcome you, and we hope your handmade tile brings back great memories of your time in Portugal. Warm regards, Yes Experiences Portugal

Do not use!
We had a few issues in the run-up to the booking - cancelled a few weeks out by mistake; a problem with the vehicle the day before so moved to the day after; then another vehicle problem on the day and two hours late being picked up. Once we got going it was a fantastic day out, and our guide Diogo was awesome. He was full of knowledge and very easy to get on with. We enjoyed a tile painting session, lunch in Sesimbra, the best coastal view I’ve ever seen, and tasting a lot of wines! Would advise booking with him directly as he works independently. We are still waiting for our tiles to arrive. I sent two WhatsApp messages and one email to ask for confirmation and all have been ignored. Would not recommend this tour agency.
Response from the operator: Dear Gemma, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. Firstly, we sincerely apologise for the disruption caused before your tour. We completely understand your frustration regarding the rescheduling and delays. For the benefit of future readers, we would like to clarify that the vehicle issues referenced in your review were not related to the operational resources of YES Experiences Portugal itself. The guide assigned to your tour operates independently, and the vehicle difficulties originated outside the company’s own fleet and operations. Once we became aware of the situation, our team immediately intervened to prevent a cancellation by providing an alternative company vehicle and additional support so that the experience could still take place as planned. Our priority was ensuring that your day could go ahead despite the unexpected circumstances. We are pleased to read that you enjoyed the tour itself, including the tile painting workshop, Sesimbra, the wineries and Diogo’s guiding throughout the day. Regarding the tiles, we apologise for the communication delay and appreciate your patience while the matter was being followed up with the workshop. We genuinely value all feedback and continuously strive to deliver the highest standards of service to our guests. Kind regards, YES Experiences Portugal

Diego was friendly and...
Diego was friendly and informative. He gave us wonderful suggestions and had lots of information about the area. Would recommend this tour!
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for your recommendation! We’re happy you enjoyed the day with Diogo. The goal of this tour is not only to visit Sesimbra and the tile painting workshop, but to help travelers understand the traditions behind them — from Portuguese azulejos to local life along the coast. Lisbon has many beautiful places, but with a local guide you discover details and viewpoints that are easy to miss on your own. We’re glad you felt informed and welcomed throughout the experience. We hope to see you again in Portugal! Kindest regards, YesExperiences Portugal

Enjoy the views and tile workshop!
Wonderful, unique, and hands-on tour with a knowledgeable guide! We got to see sights and viewpoints we normally wouldn’t know to do on our own.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re really happy you enjoyed the hands-on experience and that our guide could show you viewpoints and places you wouldn’t normally discover on your own. That’s exactly what we aim for — not just visiting Portugal, but understanding it through local traditions, stories and hidden locations. It was a pleasure sharing Sesimbra and its traditions with you, and we hope to welcome you back for another experience in Portugal someday! Kindest regards, YesExperiences Portugal

Unorganised and not good value for the money you pay.
Company is unorganized and did not follow the stated program - too expensive to have these flaws. It started with me contacting the operator to schedule the pick-up spot. The person mixed up my booking and first cancelled it and then saw it was a mistake and rebooked it for me (even though I sent the person the booking number from the start). Then I asked to be contacted by the guide about time and place for pick-up. That person had a third party picking us up and guiding us through the day (there are in other words three different operators involved...). This person was one hour late for pick-up. This meant he couldn't stop in all places before the tiles workshop and he didn't bother to do it afterwards either. He was a nice person but didn't follow the program. The tiles workshop was a joke considering how it is explained in the information, the tour was maximum 10 min and the tiles guide did not help out with the workshop at all, he just left us after he had printed the pattern for the tiles. The lunch place selected by the operator was not a good option and one of us couldn't eat the food at all. The wine place was the best thing about this trip, the guide there was excellent and the tasting very organised and fun. I could not recommend this adventure for others, at least not at this price.
Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your feedback. We sincerely apologize for the confusion and any inconvenience caused during your experience. However, we would like to clarify that this tour was not operated by our company. The issues you described, such as the mix-up with the booking, the late pick-up, and the itinerary, do not correspond to our services or program. As indicated by the guide’s identification and the logos seen throughout the day, the tour you experienced was provided by another operator, not us. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused, and we recommend that this review be posted under the correct business profile, as it does not reflect the services or itinerary of our company. We truly appreciate your understanding and cooperation in ensuring that this review is accurately represented. Thank you again for your feedback. Kindest regards, YesExperiences Portugal

Why this scores 71
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Tile Painting, Wine & Coastal Sesimbra Private Tour from Lisbon: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lisbon.
How much does Tile Painting, Wine & Coastal Sesimbra Private Tour from Lisbon cost?
+
Prices start at $149 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 Tile Painting, Wine & Coastal Sesimbra Private Tour from Lisbon 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 Tile Painting, Wine & Coastal Sesimbra Private Tour from Lisbon worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 40 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 Tile Painting, Wine & Coastal Sesimbra Private Tour from Lisbon?
+
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 Tile Painting, Wine & Coastal Sesimbra Private Tour from Lisbon 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 Tile Painting, Wine & Coastal Sesimbra Private Tour from Lisbon?
+
Around 14 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 Tile Painting, Wine & Coastal Sesimbra Private Tour from Lisbon 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.
