Full-Day Cheese Factory, Tile Painting & Wine Tour from Lisbon

Here is what's in store for you

Embark on a rich and flavorful day tour just outside Lisbon, combining Portugal’s artisanal traditions, gastronomy, and wine heritage. This experience takes you through the heart of the Arrábida and Palmela regions, with a variety of authentic stops along the way.

Your day begins with a visit to a local Azeitão cheese producer, where you'll learn each step of the traditional handmade process – from the infusion of cardo (thistle) to the final tasting of this renowned sheep’s milk cheese.

Next, dive into Portugal’s ceramic legacy with a hands-on workshop in a 17th-century-style tile factory. Here, you'll learn about traditional tile-making techniques and have the chance to paint your own tile to take home.

Then it's time to taste some of the region's most iconic wines. You'll stop at one of the oldest wineries in Palmela, a family-run estate founded in 1914 and recently awarded for producing the world’s best Muscat. Learn about their craft and enjoy a tasting of their signature wines.

Midday, enjoy free time for lunch in the picturesque seaside village of Sesimbra, famous for its fresh fish and relaxed atmosphere.

To end the day, visit the Christ the King statue, inaugurated in 1959. From this breathtaking viewpoint, take in a panoramic view over Lisbon and the Tagus River – a perfect finale to a culturally immersive day.
