Overview

Guidekin summary

A Rioja day in a group of at most seven with three wineries from classic to modern, more than eight premium tastes, olive oil, a medieval village and a three course lunch with wine, at €307 per person. Adults only; the drive is long each way. Rated 4.88 by 41 travellers.

From the guide

Discover Rioja in a very small group of no more than 7 people, led by a great local guide who makes the day feel relaxed, informative, and genuinely fun.

You’ll explore three carefully selected wineries, from classic producers to modern innovators, tasting a range of premium wines that showcase both tradition and creativity. The day is rounded off with a gourmet lunch at a much-loved rustic restaurant, where traditional Riojan cuisine with a modern touch is paired with local wines.

This tour is about great wine, good food, and learning Rioja in a friendly, personal way. It is more like spending the day with friends in wine country than joining a standard tour.
