5.00Ricardo, our guide gave us an excellent overview of cork harvesting as well as information about the wine production. We learned about the holm oaks and their relationship to the cork trees.
Very informative experience on cork

5.00We greatly enjoyed our experience! Our guide shared with us several information about cork harvesting and local agriculture. The hike allows you to observe a typical landscape of the Alentejo. We highly recommend!

5.00Our tour was booked well in advance as a walking tour. But thanks to uncooperative weather walking was not possible. We met at Corktrekking as per plan, but heavy rain and winds made it clear that we weren’t walking anywhere. Our guide (sorry we don’t recall your name) saved the situation. He was full of information which he readily shared. It was fascinating to learn about agriculture and the pressures they face. Obrigada!
Very Enjoyable!

5.00We thoroughly enjoyed our Cork Tour with Celino. We not only learned about cork farming but also about the vineyards and local agriculture. The tour was a lot of fun and we would recommend it to our friends. Thanks so much!

5.00Daniel was a great guide - He was really knowledgeable and answered all of our questions about cork, Portugal, the surrounding region, and more. He was also very attentive and made sure we left with great local recommendations. The walk through the cork forest itself was lovely, with some nice views of the countryside and a nice companion dog to boot. If you’re truly interested in a tranquil, thoughtful walk packed with information — both scientific and otherwise — then this is a great local option.
Truth uncorked

1.00What a total rip off. Whilst it is easy to criticise, this so-called tour is a total joke. My advice is to stop alongside cork trees and watch a video showing how cork is extracted. Hang you heads in shame
Cork trees up close and personal
