Overview

Enjoy a premium day with our wine-tasting tour from Bilbao to La Rioja, designed to savour Rioja wines at their source and understand why this land, cultivated since Roman times, is a byword for excellence.

With a local guide and private transport, visit two different wineries (one in the Bilingual group option), one small, one mid-sized—to compare traditional methods and modern innovations, stroll among barrels, and enjoy a guided tasting to identify notes of red fruit, vanilla, and spices.

The tour continues in medieval Laguardia with cobbled streets, vineyard views, underground cellars, and a light pintxos lunch paired with local wines (vegetarian and gluten-free options available).

No expertise needed, just curiosity, good company, and a taste for Rioja’s finest. Small groups and flexible options make it perfect for solo travellers too.

*Private experience option available.
