We found our guide Paulo to be very informative and eager to share his knowledge on the wines of Portugal. We went to a small family run vineyard Odeluca River Valley. Paulo showed the vines and explained the different varieties of grapes been grown. We saw the wine cellars and the wine making process. Had some Tapas and wines to taste. Paulo makes the experience very enjoyable.

We had a really fun day out. Would highly recommend Happy Van. Paulo is an excellent host. The VW bus turns a few heads when you arrive at your hotel.
