Visit an Azorean family that can provide you the amazing wine, typical food tastings and a relaxed party environment. All the action takes place in our garden and cozy dining room. Just think of the romance that surrounds wines grown in soils born of molten earth and ash. Volcanic wine regions are home to some of the most intriguing and characterful wines in the world. Wines grown on Azorean soils often have high acidity, a savory character, salinity and stony flavors. In a world now thirsting for new flavors, exotic local varieties, and traditional wine styles, this alone makes volcanic wines worth a look.

Vítor was a phenomenal tour guide. My wife and I loved the volcanic wine tour. Vítor was extremely knowledgeable about the entire island, and welcomed us into his home as he part of the tour. Eating and drinking with Vítor and his wife was an incredible experience. I highly the tour!
Victor was an amazing tour guide, he showed us places that we would've never found ourselves and he was so knowledgeable about the history of the azores. He told us so many interesting stories! The wine tasting and tapas and his house made us feel so welcome and it was almost like spending an evening with friends at home! He went out of his way to make us feel at home, can only recommend! Will definitely book another tour with him next time. Thanks again to Victor and his lovely wife!
Vitor is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the island he has lived on his entire life. We enjoyed the whole day tour that included some sights you wouldn't see with a big tour company. He and his wife also provided a cooking class that included local delights and a fabulous meal with local meats and wine along with the dessert we made in class. Truly a professional that takes pride in what he does. Don't take a big bus tour stick with a small local guide.
