“I liked the variety of foods and wines. The only thing missing was snails (but I may be in the minority of wanting to try them)! The guide, Carlos, was great. I enjoyed his stories, his wine expertise, and his clear enthusiasm for Spanish food and drinks. I also appreciated his recommendations for Madrid and Bilbao. The Bilbao bars were terrific.”

“We learned much about the foods of Spain including information about the importance of olive oil and how the various types of production decide the quality of the oil, ie Regular, Virgin and extra Virgin oil and the various types of Spanish ham, cheeses, wines, etc and the regions of Spain where they originate. The tour included walking but nothing to strenuous and we stopped periodically at various restaurants, market stops along the way during the tour. Our guide David was enthusiastic and very/knowledgeable which made for a very enjoyable experience!”

Taste more than 10 Madrid wines at three family-run wineries, with cave cellars, clay jars, tapas, and easy transport from central Madrid.
“Our experience with Ismael was incredible! The first two wineries, while very different, were amazing. Then Ismael brought us to the perfect lunch spot to recharge. After that we finished our day at a historical winery with incredible wine. Overall it was such a fabulous day!”
Spend a full day tasting Tempranillo at three Ribera del Duero wineries, exploring medieval cellars, and enjoying Castilian countryside from Madrid.
“What an amazing tour! Three very unique and picturesque vineyards. The trip was nicely balanced in education so there really wasn’t much overlap in information between the vineyards. The wine was spectacular. Antonio our guide was very knowledgeable about wine production, tasting and history. The restaurant he picked was excellent and off the beaten path. Loved every minute of our time and group.”
