Reviews
Virginia and Josh are simply the best hosts and tour guides of the Goat Walking Tour in the Portuguese countryside! We took our entire family and it was a very family-friendly tour and educational experience for us as American tourists eager to learn more about the Southern Portuguese culture and way of life. They were very kind and informational as they shared their knowledge of the local Portuguese agriculture and the devastating effects of depopulation in the area. The kids loved watching the goats eat grass in a clearing after walking through a trail and learning about the fruit trees and cork trees that grow on their land. We loved hearing the bells around their necks make a beautiful sound. There is also a large tree house for the kids to play on after the tour and they bring out a delicious goat cheese tray, olives, homemade bread, jams and local wines to enjoy afterwards. We highly recommend this once-in-a-lifetime experience to connect with nature and enjoy the Portuguese countryside in an authentic and organic way with amazing locals! Plus they speak English, Portuguese and Spanish!
Fantastic experience, we enjoyed every minute of it! Josh and Virginia are amazing. Adorable humans passionate to share their love for this beautiful land. The walk in the nature to meet the goats was really nice, and the wine/cheese/honey tasting delicious. We're grateful we lived these precious moments and totally recommend it!
Amazing tour of a Portuguese farm, loved herding the goats, the wine and the cheese at the end was delicious. Joshua and Virginia are wonderful hosts!
