Fun and unusual wine tour
A very interesting and usual wine tasting tour, not what you might expect but great fun. Brodie is a great character and makes the whole tour so much fun from the moment of pick up to the singing to the oldies play list on the way back to the hotel. The lunch stop is in a picturesque natural park that you would not normally find. The wine tasting are relaxed and you actually drink the wine too! For a different experience of wine tasting, this is the tour to take.

A memorable day with Brodie
If you’re looking for a typical wine tasting tour, this may not be for you. However Brodie was super friendly and an open book with no pretentiousness. We didn’t get to complete our full tour, but secondary to that, he dropped us off at the lighthouse so we could meander our way back to our AirBNB. We appreciated him making dinner reservations for us at an off-the -beaten-path restaurant which ended up being delicious!

Tours with lots of local knowledge and a great experience
We as a family did two of Brodie’s tours. The walking tour and the wine not tour. We learned a lot about the history of Lagos, very informative! The wine tour was great, simple, relaxing, coupled with great friendly company . The one thing that stood out for me was that Brodie has a passion for The Algarve region of Portugal! Simply fantastic!

Wine day out

A Wine Tour With a Difference
If you’re expecting the usual stuffy wine tour with someone in a waistcoat talking about tannins while you politely nod and pretend to understand - this is definitely not that tour. From the moment you climb onto the minibus, the fun (and the wine!) begins. Brodie brings a brilliant vibe that makes you feel like you’ve joined a day out with a mate rather than signed up for a formal wine lecture. He’s down-to-earth, relaxed, hilarious, and genuinely passionate about Portuguese wine. We learnt loads about Portuguese wine without ever feeling like we were sitting through a lesson. Brodie has a way of sharing his knowledge that’s easy, entertaining and actually sticks - probably helped by the fact that there was plenty of wine involved! The whole day had such a great atmosphere: great wine, great laughs, fascinating stories and absolutely no wine snobbery. Just good people, good vibes and some seriously good Portuguese wine. If you want a wine tour that’s fun, relaxed and a little bit different, do yourself a favour and book this one. Just be prepared to laugh, learn and possibly develop a slightly more enthusiastic relationship with Portuguese wine than you intended! Highly recommended - and cheers to Brodie for making wine tasting so much fun! 🍷🤙

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Wine Not Algarve Winery Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lagos.
How much does Wine Not Algarve Winery Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $80 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Lagos usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Wine Not Algarve Winery Tour take?
+
Plan for about 5 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 Lagos is not rushed.
Is Wine Not Algarve Winery Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 38 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Lagos, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Wine Not Algarve Winery Tour?
+
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 Wine Not Algarve Winery Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Wine Not Algarve Winery Tour?
+
Around 13 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 Lagos 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 Lagos and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Wine Not Algarve Winery Tour 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 Lagos 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 Lagos?
+
On Outty we rank every Lagos experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Small-Group Kayak Tour: Magic of Ponta da Piedade, Lagos, From Lagos: Kayak Tour of Ponta da Piedade Caves by Boat, Boat trip to the grottos at Ponta da Piedade, Lagos. 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 Lagos?
+
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 Lagos?
+
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.
What is included in Wine Not Algarve Winery Tour?
+
Included: Lunch; In-vehicle air conditioning; and Alcoholic beverages. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Wine Not Algarve Winery Tour include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 93 listed pickup locations in and around Lagos. Be ready about 10 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Wine Not Algarve Winery Tour offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Wine Not Algarve Winery Tour?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is Wine Not Algarve Winery Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
What happens to Wine Not Algarve Winery Tour if the weather is bad?
+
