Lisbon · Arrábida Day

Arrábida Day Trip from Lisbon — wine, hills & sea

Setúbal market, family wineries in Azeitão, a long Portuguese lunch and an optional close above Sesimbra harbour.

South of the bridge, forty minutes and a different country.

Cross the 25 de Abril Bridge and the road curves through cork and pine into the Arrábida Natural Park — limestone mountains dropping straight into turquoise water, small unguarded beaches, and the wine village of Azeitão at its centre. It is the closest serious wine country to Lisbon, and the most under-the-radar.

Market, wineries, long lunch, viewpoint.

We open at Setúbal's 145-year-old Livramento market, climb to two or three family wineries, and sit down for an unhurried Portuguese lunch in Azeitão. Optional close at Cristo Rei for the Lisbon panorama or Sesimbra Castle for Atlantic light.

A private car, your own pace.

Group Arrábida tours typically stop at one winery and rush the lunch. Private means hotel pickup, your own driver-guide, and the choice of where to linger — an extra cellar, a swim at Galápos, or a longer walk on Sesimbra's castle walls.

    Unforgettable Arrábida wine day

    We were picked up at our hotel and our wonderful adventure began. Unforgettable local market, studio of a tile artisan, 3 lovely wineries, beautiful vistas, delicious Portuguese lunch, and a much broader understanding of Portugal's history. Miguel was attentive and incredibly knowledgeable. I would urge you to take this tour.

    Good food and wine

    This tour took us to 3 wineries and they all were very impressive. To visit the local market was a wonderful experience too where we bought some really fresh local produce and ate fresh oysters. Lunch was also included in a local restaurant — the charcoal grilled fish and pork were delicious. João was very friendly and full of positive energy.

    A fantastic time while in Lisbon

    Had a fantastic time our last day in Lisbon. Our tour included a visit to a local market where we saw many species of seafood unheard in the US, a visit to three wineries where we sampled delicious regional wines and a fabulous lunch tasting the local cuisine. Bernardo was very knowledgeable. We would highly recommend this excursion.

    Lovely outing outside of Lisbon

    We had a wonderful day with our guide Nuno. He was a genuinely kind, caring man and made sure we were comfortable at all times. Wine tastings were plentiful as were the presentations at the 3 wineries we attended. An excellent lunch was provided. We thank you for a great day.

    Simply the best tour!

    This was the best tour on our trip! Our guide, João, was wonderful. The private tour had the right balance of vineyards to visit along with a trip to a small family owned tile facility, and a visit to the fish market. The luncheon provided was exceptional.
