In the glass · 1-HOUR EXPERIENCES
Good 1-hour experiences fill up weeks ahead and the great ones go first. Below: the 5 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Set out from the V&A Harbour for a one-hour pre-sunset cruise with a complimentary glass of South African sparkling wine. You’ll see Cape Town and Table Mountain from the Atlantic, enjoy golden-hour photo light, and might spot dolphins, seals, whales, or other marine life. Expect music and a lively onboard mood.
“I liked everything about it, the music, the vibe. the cabin crew was really friendly”
At From The Vine, English-speaking hosts such as Caio, Rebecca, Ricardo, and Andre guide you through three Portuguese wines from different regions. Expect clear lessons on grapes, flavors, food pairing, and wine culture in a friendly tasting bar, with no dinner included.
“Excellent activity, Caio was very knowledgeable! Had the best time!”
Join a colorful yellow beer bike for a one-hour ride along Lisbon’s Tejo waterfront. You’ll pedal with up to nine other passengers, enjoy craft beer, sangria, wine, soft drinks, or water, and follow a guide such as Rafa, Miguel, Rapha, or André. Bring music for the onboard speakers.
“Great fun to do with a group! Drinks were fab too”
Share a private one-hour Cessna 172 flight over South Beach, Downtown Miami, Key Biscayne, Star Island, and nearby islands. Your English or Spanish-speaking FAA-certified pilot provides live narration, while free parking, headsets, and non-alcoholic Champagne keep the occasion simple and romantic.
Meet the DELTATUR green flag at Pinhão dock for a one-hour shared cruise with Portuguese or English guidance. Leandro and Adriano may lead the trip, with ambient music, terraced vineyards, historic estates, and complimentary sparkling wine along the Douro.
“Great tour! End of the season so we ended up being the only people on the boat. Had a wonderful tour through the Douro Valley, the champagne was flowing, and learned a bit about the area and vineyards. Excellent value for the low cost”
Cellar doors, tasting rooms and the long lunches in between.
