About this experience

Participants will embark on a wine-tasting tour from Bilbao to La Rioja, exploring the region known for its wines since Roman times. The experience includes visits to two wineries, where one is in the Bilingual group option, allowing for a comparison of traditional and modern winemaking techniques. Guests will stroll among barrels and engage in guided tastings highlighting notes of red fruit, vanilla, and spices. The tour also features a visit to the medieval town of Laguardia, showcasing its cobbled streets, vineyard views, and underground cellars, along with a light pintxos lunch that includes local wines, with vegetarian and gluten-free options available. This tour is suitable for those with no prior wine knowledge, and small group sizes make it ideal for solo travellers. A private experience option is also available.
