Taylor's Port Self-Guided Audio Tour & Tasting Experience

About this experience

Your experience Arriving at Taylor's Port Begin your visit at Taylor’s historic port cellars in Porto, a landmark founded in 1692. Present your mobile voucher and identification at the entrance before accessing one of the city’s top wine destinations. No need for a guided group—set your own pace and take in the cellars at your leisure, using an audio guide available in 13 languages to learn more about the world of port. Exploring the cellars Step inside the atmospheric cellars, where you’re surrounded by original stonework, aging barrels and centuries-old history. The audio guide provides fascinating details about the founding of Taylor’s, its significance in the production of port wine and how the Douro Valley’s terroir has shaped these unique blends over generations. Wander the corridors, soaking in stories of craftsmanship, innovation and international trade, including the history of ‘shipping tasters’ who ensured each cask could endure a sea voyage. Wine tasting The self-guided tour culminates in a tasting session. Adults can savor a glass of Extra Dry White Port as well as a glass of Late Bottled Vintage (LBV), both renowned examples from Taylor’s range. Younger visitors are invited to join in with a glass of grape juice. Engage your senses and appreciate the differences in flavor, complexity and aroma that make these wines prized around the world. Experienced staff are available to answer any additional questions about the port-making process. Optional upgrades and extra experiences Those who wish for an enhanced experience can opt for upgrade packages. These include an elevated tasting flight with aged Tawny or Vintage Ports, as well as admission to one of the adjacent World of Wine (WOW) museums, such as The Wine Experience, Chocolate Experience, Planet Cork, Porto Region Across the Ages or The Art of Drinking. These museums offer deeper insights into local wine production, regional culture and more. Visit tips The tour is designed to take about 60 minutes, but guests are encouraged to linger and enjoy the tranquil surroundings, panoramic city views and lush terraced vineyards visible from the property. Be sure to check hours in advance and wear comfortable shoes, as the cellars involve some walking on uneven surfaces.
