“Wonderful tour and great samples of amazing products. We live in the area and will be coming back again and again. Can’t wait to bring family with us who are visiting from out of town.”
"An awesome tour . The staff were very knowledgeable, friendly and quick to answer questions. A must for anyone who likes olives. They had a beautiful tasting laid out and encouraged us to try the different wines and cheese's of the region."
"Regional products are offered here. You can try various pickled olives, olive oil and honey. If so, I would like to be there. Very nice and lovely people here who explain everything in detail. People like to shop there. The young daughter even speaks German. Overall, highly recommended. We will definitely come here again."
"We enjoyed an interesting factory tour by charming local olive processing people on the salt flats of Tavira. Wine, olive oil marmalade, toast and cheese tastings were included along with a video and answers to all your questions about getting olives from the tree to a jar and onto your dinner table. This is a small group of enterprising women who faced many challenges to keep the business operating during COVID and poor harvests caused by unfavourable temperatures and precipitation. The tour of their resilient small facility is definitely worthwhile at 15 euros/ adult."
"Really informative and interesting tour with Andreia at Hélder Madeira near Tavira. Great selection of olives, cheese, wine at the end to top off the experience. I can recommend it!"
