Personal touch
Top reasons to book a wine tour in Rioja with us
Contacts
We are locals, we know the places and we have the contacts, as our logo states.
In the end it’s building a reputation over the years and being trusted that counts in a small community like ours. It allows us to gain access to prestigious wineries, outstanding family-run cellars and wineries closed to the general public.
We only work with reputable providers that are up to our standards. After many years, we now have keys to a few cellars which is the best sign of trust you’ll ever have from a winemaker!
Personal touch
The Riojan way of life is centered around drinking, eating and interacting and so do our tours.
You haven’t travelled all this way just to experience a typical scheduled guided tour at a bodega. Instead we prefer direct contact with growers and winemakers for a warmer, more in-depth look that you can take back home with you.
We seek the personal touch on all of our tours. We are also a family-run and owned company, and it shows (or so are we told!).
If you like Spanish wine, you will love a Rioja wine tour with us!!
Local insight
We are avid wine drinkers ourselves and have tasted a lot of wines. Let’s just say we know Riojas well.
Over the years we have forged relationships with winemakers and wineries at professional tastings, private events (and at their homes in some cases).
As locals, our insight and knowledge allows you to make the most of your time in Rioja. You will see a side that most people miss -blogs and guidebooks can only reach so far.
We will also happily provide tips and recommendations for the rest of your stay in Rioja wine country and Spain. It’s amazing how a few spot-on recommendations can transform a holiday!
Save time
The Rioja wine region offers +600 wineries to choose from, which can make planning your trip overly complicated.
Working out the logistics of which wineries to pick, where to stay and how to get around is time consuming and overpowering. Choosing the wineries alone is a job in itself if all you can count on is what you read online!
If you want to make the most of your time and avoid tourist traps, let us take over. We’ll pinpoint the wineries and places to visit that best suit your needs.
As travel curators, it’s our job to know what works best. We aim to deliver what suits you, not just what you stumble across online.
Professional service
Being an extrovert local doesn’t just guarantee a professional service per se. It’s obviously a great asset but it’s not the be-all and end-all.
Our formal training and decades of proven experience in high-end hospitality and wine tourism customer service does offer you that personal service.
We ensure a high-quality customer service from the booking process through to the post-tour period.
We are a fully licensed Travel Agency accredited by the La Rioja Tourism Board. Our tours include full insurance coverage and we meet all quality standards. If you want to have peace of mind, hire a licensed Agency for your own benefit.
Taste&Learn
"Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn."
You are going to learn about Rioja wine, no matter your previous wine knowledge. We promise.
Our tours are educational yet laid-back and we always adapt the content to your level. We feel that learning is part of the goal of booking a wine tour with specialists, not just tasting.
You will develop a new appreciation for Rioja wines and feel more confident when it comes to buying or ordering Rioja wines and wine in general back home. Ready?
