J. Pope (Australia) - Tailor made wine tour Douro valley
We had such a wonderful time in the Douro Valley, and so did everyone in the group. Stories were circulating around our conference and everyone else was very jealous they didn't come! Thank you so much for all your efforts in organising such a fantastic trip. J. & W. Eilander (Nederland) - Op maat gemaakt Porto & Douro Vallei Lang Weekend
We hebben heel erg van het weekend genoten!
T. Segers (Belgie) - Op maat gemaakte week in Porto & Douro Vallei
Ik wil u graag bedanken voor de fantastische reis die we gemaakt hebben in Porto en de Douro streek...... de verschillende restaurants en de diversiteit aan gerechten en wijnen waren geweldig, we hebben onze ogen uit het hoofd gekeken..........de tours door de wijn en port kelders waren stuk voor stuk speciaal, we hadden de indruk dat we bij enkele van de tophuizen terecht gekeon waren, na het proeven van hun creaties. J. Meesters (Nederland) - Op maat gemaakt Porto & Douro Vallei reis / koken en wijn proeven
We hebben genoten van de reis. Heerlijk gegeten en gedronken. Hotel... is goed, restaurants idem. De kookles van ... was heel goed. Wie weet doen we Lissabon ook nog een keer. J van Zeijst (Nederland) - Op maat gemaakte 2 weken reis Portugal We zijn nu al weer een paar dagen in Nederland en we hebben nu al weer heimwee naar Portugal.....de reis die je voor ons opgesteld hebt was geheel naar wens en wat hebben we genoten van het eten, de goede wijnen, de overheerlijke port, de leuke, leerzame en inspirerende gesprekken die we hebben gehad met al de Portugezen die we hebben ontmoet
C & D Preston (England) - Gastronomic long weekend in Evora / Alentejo We feel that we must write and tell you how much my wife and I enjoyed our trip last weekend to Portugal.
The hospitality given to us by the hotel staff in Evora was wonderful,nothing was too much trouble for them....Our guide was very professional indeed and that combined with his immense knowledge of Portuguese wines and food made the whole experience absolutely fantastic. The Chef Antonio was very patient with us in the kitchen and he showed us how to create dishes that tasted delicious. The trips to the winerys were very interesting indeed, with the Quinta D. M. visit especially amazing. Thank you very much for organising a memorable weekend o J. van der Heide/ W. van Gorkum (Nederland) - Gastronomisch Lang Weekend Ribatejo Supermooie omgeving. Je bent even heel ergens anders..... Goede kok! Speelde goed in op de groep, had gevoel voor humor. Kookte met flair!.... Er werd in het groot gekookt: biggetje, grote vis, enorme hoeveelheid pasteien.... Samenstelling programma was heel goed. 2 proeverijen + 3 kooklessen. Charmante aan de proeverijen was ook de zeer natuurlijke uitstraling van de begeleiding aldaar (absoluut niet toeristisch). B. Attwood (UK) - Gastronomic Long weekend Ribatejo
Wine tasting and the olive oil tour were both great...... I enjoyed the cooking demonstrations at the restaurant in a 'real' restaurant environment. The people were enthusiastic and welcoming. The food was interesting and delicious. The chef was very charismatic! ....
Overall it was a great, great weekend - thank you for a wonderful time.
T. Bagguley (Netherlands) - Gastronomic Long Weekend Alentejo
The ingredients were great and it was nice to see that the chef cooked what was fresh/looked good i.e. not sticking religiously to recipes but being flexible........The palace was lovely and it was great to have the opportunity to go round it. Really one of the highlights of the trip. The wine they produce is excellent and very interesting to actually go to the vineyards and talk to the people there. It was so much more than just a tasting...... The atmosphere was great..... It was a wonderful trip and we both had a fantastic time. Thank you very much for organising and arranging it. S. Rusbasan (UK) - Gastronomic Long weekend Ribatejo
It was stellar..…… The accommodation on the hill, our room, the amenities were all tasteful and heartfelt…… The wine tour was superb! We walked the vineyards and were shown hundred year old vines and newer vines. We saw many phases of production and marketing, met the owner, and had a wonderful lunch......... This is a class operation…….
