Comfortable... - Comfortable transportation. Interesting wineries. Knowledgeable host. Both wineries were family run and hosted by family members so we had a great perspective of their love and labor of the wines they produce.

A Wonderful Adventure to the Rioja Region! - Excellent journey to and from San Sebastián, and into the Rioja region. Informative guides at the two wineries, especially at Bodegas Luis Cañas; the memory of having their cool white wine overlooking their vineyard will stay with me a long time! For those who enjoy drinking wine, but don’t know how it’s made and the effort put into it by many generations, I highly recommend coming on this tour. Considering all driving is part of the tour, you won’t get more than 8 people in a group. Huge thanks to Albi Davis for his valuable driving, excellent guiding, and all round good conversation. A wonderful day out for those new to the Basque Country.

Best Rioja wine tour - Fantastic all day wine tasting experience, the guide for the day was super friendly and very informative. The individual wine tours were fantastic - we really liked going to smaller / family owned bodegas and the wines chosen for tasting were excellent. The food / lunch was in an amazing location too

Look no further! Favorite experience of our trip. - My husband and I were gifted a wine tour for one of our wedding gifts, and chose this one free some last-minute plans were changed. We weren’t sure what to expect, but we had an outstanding time! Our tour guide Alby did a phenomenal job making us feel comfortable, providing history, and keeping things lively in the van. The two wineries you visit make such an excellent pairing! You get to see such a beautiful part of the country, taste local cuisine, and meeting the people who work so hard to preserve the wine making history in Rioja was incredibly special. I cannot recommend this tour highly enough! This was the highlight of our honeymoon, and this trip is the one to book!

A must! - We had an absolute blast on the Rioja Wine Tour with Alby! Highly recommend the tour and the guide! We spent the day visiting 3 completely different wineries in the region and loved them all! There’s just so much history there- the staff at the wineries were so kind and full of information and passion for their work. We didn’t want to leave! We came to the region as strangers and left as friends- Alby played a huge roll in that. He is clearly “part of the family” at these wineries which ensures his clients have top notch, behind the scenes experiences- and we did! Alby provided great recommendations for other things to do, food to eat, restaurants to eat at, and wine to taste as well. He was authentic and his love for the region and being a tour guide shows. We loved every minute! Cannot recommend this tour and Alby enough!
