Already the tasting is paying. I've never seen this in France. Moreover, the tasting room offers wines that are no longer available. And end of the end, I have to hold my york in my arms because he does not accept dogs.
It's up to you to see if you go your way or not ......
Very detailed, interesting audio tour (also in German) past the large wine barrels followed by a small port wine tasting ... now costs 15 . But it's OK...
Excellent views over the city of Porto. Quality restaurant. A visit to wine tasting is recommended!
Very nice winery at the top of Gaia. The price seems excessive to make you alone the guide with audio. The wine tasting on the terrace with a sunny day is definitely the best. The prices of wines in your store are much more expensive than in Porto stores.
Totally worth going there. If you are in Porto this is a must-have-seen
Visit Tailor's. If you really want to taste port wine, this is a must. We have tasted a Ruby Vintage package for a fee in the beautiful rose garden (one package is enough for two) and ordered additional mineral water. The shop also offers great and a visit to this is worthwhile.
The only downer: had to discuss a long time, because a glass / bottle of cork had. The glass was exchanged after 3x discussions and so we could really enjoy the tasting.
YUM! pair the white, Ruby and 20 year tawny with the cheese and olives that, paired with the peaceful and beautiful garden =
Note: we skipped the tour and went right to the restaurant
As a big fan of Taylor port I was disappointed with the audio tour. It lacks a lot of the character and charm of the other port houses that are guided by person. Defiantly the worst port house experience I've had in Porto. In contrast the restaurant is excellent.
Quiet tour because not in group, thanks to the audioguide, film, photos history of this great Porto house, one of the oldest and tasting in the garden, excellent
Well worth the walk. Very interesting and lovely garden for the tasting. Have the cheese board to complement the port.
an absolute recommendation, everything fits together here
The audio-guided tour is quite detailed, covering many different aspects of port production and the history of the company. Be sure to budget enough time for it - the tour takes around an hour (probably longer if you read everything), and that's not including time to relax outside and enjoy a couple glasses of port afterwards. Well worth the cost.
We barely made it to Taylors before they closed for the evening. We had climbed a very steep hill with a stroller to get there. Thankfully, Claire, one of the staff members, saw us climbing and allowed us in even though they were closing up shop. We got to take a quick stroll through the cellar and take a quick tasting, which was so gracious of them to do for us. Although it was a quick visit, we really enjoyed our time. It is a BEAUTIFUL place and I hope to return someday.
Enjoyed the self-guided audio tour. Found it informative and interesting. Loved the tasting options.
Stunning and beautiful property. The views are fantastic. I opted for the vertical tasting of 10 yr, 20 yr, 30 yr 40 yr Tawny Port along with the VERY OLD 1967. Mario was a wonderful host and had an encyclopedic knowledge of port wine. If you visit Oporto......this is a must.
Great tour of the venue and amazing pre wedding reception. The food was fantastic also and they do a really nice port spritz which is just fantastic highly recommend a visit if you are in the city.
Most definitely worth visiting and going for a tour + tasting! Waiters are well trained in multiple languages, kind and friendly - extremely professional and the smell of the wine is amazing! Worth a visit for sure!
Great experience to spend some hours in Porto.
With 15 you'll get a full audioguide to help you get the most out of the cellars tour; then at the end of the visit a coupon for 2 port glasses in a very unique location surrounded by beautiful peacocks.
The audio guide seems to take some optimization - or more patience from the user. The tour is informative, but develops towards the final but strong to self-promotion. There are two good ports for the tasting. Overall neat, but not very spectacular. The price-performance ratio is just right.
Guided tour very well explained by the guide.
The view is fantastic and the Port wines from this house are very good. We could taste 3 wines, which meant we had to go to the store and buy some bottles to continue tasting at home !!!
Disappointment. The reception person edges and dries. The visit for 15 euros with audioguide in Spanish and the most important explanation is in a room with a giant screen in English. It includes the tasting of two kinds of wine but they did not offer us more nor a letter to nibble ... to others if. I would not go back, of course.
Taylor's Port is worthy to visit! You can choose for a self guided audio tour in all languages. Beside this, you get a lot of information. Most important off course is the tasting in the restaurant. We did the tasting in the beautiful garden, recommended! And bring some port wine with us to enjoy at home!
Nice chilled out place to try various drinks. Decor is nice, ambiance was nice, selection was good, prices were reasonable, lovely view over the city, friendly staff, great free wifi.
Yup, its all that and a bag of chips. A really well laid out location with a complete tour package. they have some some wonderful ports to try and both red and white and most importantly the right staff to help guide you. The grounds are great for relaxing and really taking in the view of the town and enjoying the moment. Go and you will have no regrets about it.
The brilliant tale about history of wine in perfect atmosphere.
Great experience, not only was The price right but the tour was great to!
Very nice setting, very good welcome, impeccable service, quality dishes
I loved! Very good wines! Change a lot with a Malbec Argentinos! I asked for the tasting of 35 euros to share and excellent!
Nice tour and subsequent tasting at Taylor's. Recommended!
The garden - a wonderful place to taste the great port wines. Sure, the prices are not a bargain, but always justified. In addition very nice advice and some delicious little things to eat and snack. A must for port lovers
We had a very enjoyable visit. Tasted 5 different ports. Worth a visit.
Interesting, audio box for listening in French, nice welcome
Very interesting place! In the wine tasting, ask for the bread basket (accompanied by olive oil) and the Portuguese cheese board. It looks great!
Nice garden to have the Port tasting, interesting if you are interested in the history of port
They have peacocks. Audio guide tour is ok. Peacocks are excellent
The tour is a bit expensive IMHO, but other than that it's interesting. Seeing the vat and the cellar was amazing. There's a little bit too much of Taylor's advertisement in the audio guide ("we're the best gnagnagna") but it's fun. The tasting was nice too.
I feel like I got conned since I paid for a tour and to taste something I bought just after, but well, I'm a stupid tourist. :)
Great place! Wonderful experience, too bad I didn't have much time, so I suggest you have at least 2 hours to get the best out of it!
I only knew the restaurant. Wonderful food and great ambience.
Of the many Port companies to choose from Taylors was recommended to us by a local taxi driver. The tour was excellent and well laid out and explained the business and story of Porto and Port really clearly. We chose to partake in the tasting, which while nice, at 15 /head was quite expensive for 2 small glasses of Port (one LBV).
Great if you don't do formal guided tours and wine snobbery. Self guided audio tour and tasting. Steep uphill walk from the river. Good views as well.
The restaurant with the best views of Porto, from the top of Gaia overlooking the riverbank. It has a spectacular terrace and is perfect for weddings and celebrations, surrounded by wineries and vines. The food is not the best in Porto, but it is well defended. The only bad thing is that it is expensive.

The cellars are wonderful and the port is wonderful
basic visit explanations a little short and very marketing. ..but the tasting in the sunny garden with attentive staff is worth 12 euros.
it"s very nice, getting to know a bit about port in a fantastic environment
Ganz ineressant. Wenig spezielle Information zu viel Eigenwerbung.
It was excellent. We tasted the 40 YO Tawny it was marvelous.
Nice cellar but the visit with the audio guides is not very interactive ... Tasting of a red port and 1 white port
Exquisite port wine in an idyllic setting. Service is above average, feeling a bit scripted when you are presented with various bottles. Staff is very open to input though. They unfortunately forgot our second order. Staff member played it really well and advised me to work out a solution with the responsible waitress, in stead of confronting his colleague himself. Obviously there was no such thing as a fitting compensation, just mere empty promises. Regardless, perfect place to try out some fancy port! Be prepared for a steep climb if you re approaching this place from the north.
Place to try this Port wine. Far away from the river, but very charming. To eat has a terrace with views. We had a few glasses of wine and a cheese board from Portugal. It was all very good, but the wine was quite expensive.
Audio wine tour and wine tasting (2 glasses). Classic Porto winery tour, worth the money. (12 )
An audio guided tour of Taylor's history with two wine tastings, very good by the way. The tasting in a very cozy garden with turkeys and roosters hanging around.
One of the best cellars to see in Porto (Gaia) Good reception, very professional a little cold.
Nice place to visit
I was imprest
Nice, attentive advice, postage and small dishes delicious
You can take the guided tour yourself with a Dutch-speaking listening device. Afterwards taste a nice port in a beautiful courtyard
Well worth a visit. Really interesting and interactive. Appropriate for kids too as they get grape juice at the end and there is plenty to keep them entertained.
Could have stayed in the cellar room for hours - it smelt amazing!
It is good to have a Korean audio guide for 15 Euros, but it's a bit boring .. I feel like paying for advertising ... I can sample one of the most basic Taillus white / red wines at the end

Ruby, Tawny, LBV(Late Bottle Vintage) Branco, Branco Seco .
, 40 3 . LBV 2014 , 40 40 . 40 , 40 . 40 190 , 210
The most fantastic Port wines that I've ever drunk. Winery of great tradition.
Slight issue with the audio device. But all in all a good time. Very informative
A great tasting of some great port in a nice garden to relax in. Great place. However some staff gave a lot of information about the ports and some have almost none, so depending on how much you want to learn you could get a little disappointment in the presentation of some staff.
Quite nice experience, with audio guide for 15 euro
Very nice place to enjoy good Porto especially 40 years of age! Nice view of the bridge and its city, stand on the side of "Miradouro"
Highlight of the tasting and tour was sitting in the beautiful outdoor space. The tour itself is self-guided so you can go at your own pace, spend more/less time in particular areas, etc. We found it quite informative.
We loved sitting in the outdoor terrace area for the tasting. It was such a beautiful sunny day and they do not rush you.
It's good but a little expensive for the small visit ...
A great tasting experience; comprising, a white port, LBV, tawny and 2 vintage ports. We accompanied this with a plate of cured meats and some bread. The staff were very helpful.

The only thing you learn with the audio tour is that Taylor's invented a fake vintage port. Which you get to sample in addition to the equally irrelevant invention of a vinegar type white wine called 'chip dry'.
Impressive how many times the company's name can be mentioned within an hour's audio.
Location is nice.
I'm a Taylor so was drawn for obvious reasons to this particular Port company. I'm very impressed with my namesake's work shown off around the cellar tour and port tasting area. Very interesting to learn about the history of Port production and trade as well as more recent efforts to become more environmentally sensitive and reduce their impact on climate change. I thought both ports given to taste were delicious. Exit through the gift shop!
It was especially nice because I had a Korean explanation.
Walk up the steep hill to find one of two of Porto s most famous wine cellars.
For someone who doesn t know a lot about port, it was interesting to learn how it came to being one of the world s most popular wine varieties. It s a surprising story that I won t spoil for you.
It s not a guided tour, so expect to use a handheld audio guide which was a bit confusing to use we thought. I felt that the tour itself while informative at the beginning got a bit repetitive and was slightly too promotional of Taylor s.
At the end of the tour you have the opportunity to taste small glasses of two different ports.
There are a couple peacocks roaming the grounds - very surprising!
Very good tasting in a great atmosphere. We were in the garden and on the terrace - twice we were there. Because it was so good and the port wines tasted extremely good compared to three other four local suppliers. A rooster and four pheasants ran around the garden. Just beautiful. The prices were okay. In Porto and Lisbon the prices of the ports were always more expensive. Sometimes considerably. We were surprised that the Taylor Ports at Lisbon Airport in the Duty Tree was a bit cheaper than at Taylors direct. However, there are not all tranches at the airport.
I made a cognitive excursion. The wine is delicious but very little is included in the basic excursion.
The plane is badly indicated to go through the cellar. Problems with the reservation in the restaurant having requested one month in advance. The scarce and bad food. The service does not speak Spanish.
Home very insufficient, no explanation to our arrival (the hostess cash entries and does not even explain where the visit begins).
But the place is very beautiful
Great place to visit
Well organized tour through the history of porto wine
Amazing view from the garden where you can sit and enjoy your glass of cold porto
Excellent service, especially in the restaurant. Great port wine and history
The winery tour is very interesting both from the architectural point of view and from the knowledge of the history of this noble wine as well as of this very ancient brand.
Great experience, very interactive museum and beautiful courtyard to enjoy port tasting.
Do not miss it at all! Great experience and great wine !!!
Very interesting tour and good audio guide. The walk up to the top is rewarded with a delicious tasting of excellent Portwine. Recommended.
The food was amazing. It was extraordinarily expensive, but the quality of food justified the price tag. And a beautiful setting overlooking Porto.
This winery has the total package! Great port wine, a brief but interesting tour, and a beautiful outdoor terrace with a view. What's best of all is that entire experience came to 5 euro.
Visit without a route. Tasting only. Very large room with outdoor terrace and shop. We tasted 3 different types of Porto, more or less aged, all very good. Prices a bit 'altini, about 20. Staff very kind and generous with explanations about wine.
Class!
A little off. You have to walk a few steps already. It's not that crowded for that. The tour is with audio guide (also in German) and can be started at any time. Very nice atmosphere with style. Cost: 15 incl. Two port samples. Recommendation!!!
The cost of the audioguide tour is adequate, but we were disappointed with the alcohols served at the tasting
The price is half salty, a few euros more expensive than the other cellars. But as it is by audioguide you make your time, dedicating more or less time to each step of the visit that goes through the history of the region where the grapes are planted, such as harvesting, treading, quality tests. It also explains the process of maturation of each type, in addition to a detailed history of Taylor's. Highlight for the guessing smell section, the challenge remains. Finally, the evidence room is a charm, open in a rosary and with super attentive attendants who offer to take pictures and everything. I mean, it's worth it!
