A very enjoyable and well balanced experience. The cheese workshop was hands-on and easy to follow, even without prior knowledge. Tasting the local products made it feel authentic, and the visit to Sesimbra added a nice coastal touch to the day.

Really liked the combination of activities. Learning about Azeitão cheese was interesting and interactive, and the wine tasting complemented it perfectly. The guide made everything flow smoothly and kept the experience relaxed.

The workshop was a highlight, giving a deeper understanding of how the cheese is made. It felt genuine and not overly staged. Sesimbra was a nice stop to walk around and enjoy the views by the sea.
