Who it is for

For named estates with lunch and a boat, Kara Tours costs from €450 per adult; booking needs approval. If 8 hours suits you better, MaiaTours costs from €530 per vehicle for up to 2; lunch stays extra.

Means: The 9:00 private option fits a party of 2 to 4 if two quinta tastings matter more than a boat.

Not for

  • Solo travellers
  • Parties of more than 4
  • Anyone needing a boat in the itinerary
  • Visitors committed to a particular quinta

In harvest: book the quinta visits early for September and October; grape picking is outside the private itinerary.
