Muchos Gracias - Superb customer service! We had booked on the tour in Spanish as they had advised there were none in English on that day. The called me in England from Spain to say they had arranged a tour in English and would I like to change from the Spanish tour to the English one. I did and it was a great tour and tasting fully recommended.

Amazing experience! - We had a fantastic tour of the Museum with hostess/guide Juti who offered great insight into the brewing process and the history of this family run business. We learned about the key elements that are used in brewing beer (e.g., water, grain, yeast) and how Estrella selects and combines various versions to produce different versions of beer. The tour ended with a great tasting experience in which we learned how to pour a proper beer and then had a tasting with four beers and cheeses. My wife and I have toured breweries around the world (e.g., Guinness) and would rate this tour as one the best!

The best brewery tour ever - Marta, our guide was lovely and very knowledgeable. The tour itself was very interesting and informative. Obviously, tasting the beers with the cheeses at the end was the cherry on the cake. Thoroughly recommended.

Unreal - Can not rate this experience highly enough. We had several hours in La Coruna whilst our ship had docked in the port. I booked this tour prior to the cruise through trip advisor and selected the 12:30 tour with English audio. I received an email a week before my tour to say they had an English speaking tour guide if I would like to attend at 10:30 which I am glad I did as the tour including pints at the end lasted about 2.5/3 hours. The tour guide (female and have forgetter her name) was amazing. She made the tour fun and interactive. The tour had a little bit of everything and being an F1 and Carlos Sainz fan, I was in dream land viewing his 2022 Ferrari which I was not expecting. I love an Estrella but even my partner who is not a massive beer fan really enjoyed the tour. She even tasted some of the beer and admitted that it wasn’t as bad as she thought. I obviously loved the beer. We all got a free gift and took home an Estrella pint glass which was a nice souvenir to remind us of our time here. I also got cheese to accompany my beers which was a really pleasant surprise. 10/10, would recommend.

Well worth the visit - Beer and Cheese Tour/Tasting - Our visit was fabulous and well worth it! We requested an English Speaking Tour, and our guide was great. It was informative, lots of fun, and very interesting overall. Cheeses were yummy. Wonderful experience. Tour/tasting takes approximately 2.5 hours, so wear comfortable shoes.

Excellent tour - This was a fantastic experience. Judit was our tour guide, and was able to give an excellent tour in English. The whole tour was great. I really enjoyed the interactive elements, how we could taste the hops, barley, wort, baby beer and then pull our own pints at the end! I chose the cheese pairing tasting and it was really tasty. It was just a super experience, I would definitely do it again and recommend it to anyone.

A Must See! - Excellent tour! We are truly impressed and pleased with our experience at the Mega museum. A multi sensory tour filled with history of the business and the beer making process. Our guide was knowledgeable and personable. The beer and Galician cheese pairing was delectable. Great value!

Overall good experience - The museum is bright, spacious and we'll laid out. Our tour guide was well informed and took time explaining everything. The tour takes about two hours. My only criticism is that once the tour was over we were in the bar having our beer and cheese pairing board when we were told ok you have to go now. We weren't finished but felt rushed to leave. You need to give people more time at the end to have a relaxing beer in the bar, especially if they have paid extra for the pairings.

Brewery tour - Tour was good but audio download would not work which was frustrating since tour was only in Spanish.
