Great day out in Rioja - Had a wonderful day of wine tasting in Rioja Country. Added bonus of being taken to a few extra medieval villages as we were the only couple on the tour that day. Would recommend.

Rioja wine tour & lunch - The tour of Rioja was fantastic. Our guide Alby picked us up in San Sebastián and drove to the Rioja Alavesa region where we visited 2 wineries and had a traditional Rioja lunch. The views of the landscape were amazing and the wines and food were even better. Our guide and driver Alby was very professional. He had great knowledge of the area and took great care of our group every step of the way. We’re grateful to Alby for this amazing experience.

What better way to spend a day eating and drinking - It was a 1 hr 45 min drive of beautiful countryside to get to the first winery. The two wineries were stunning and the wines were of high quality. We had a third stop for lunch where we were provided delicious local food. It was a great way to spend a whole day.

A long road trip to get there but the wineries were very good - It was a two hour road trip to get the Rioja wine region from San Sebastian but once there the two winery visits were very good. One winery took us on a tour which was insightful, and the second winery was just a tasting. There was plenty of good wine to taste. The lunch was at a tourist restaurant and the service was very perfunctory with little to no engagement by serving staff but the food was okay.

Great winery tour and delicious wines - It was a long day as the Rioja wine area is a 2 hour drive from San Sebastián but the two wineries we visited were very good. The tour of the first winery was with Marta who obviously enjoys her job and we had a tasting at the second winery. Lunch wasn’t until 2.30pm at a tourist restaurant and was pretty perfunctory with food and wine slapped on the table. While I found the tour to be expensive I don’t know how I would have got to this wine region otherwise. Plenty of wine to taste!

Dud - About 48 hours before the trip they cancelled on me as they didn’t have enough participants, it was no longer convenient for them, or? I was disappointed.
