I really can’t rate this trip highly enough. Luis our driver and guide was fantastic. He had lots of information about the region, about the history and about life! The tour packs in quite a lot so definitely get breakfast before you go as you visit the three wineries before lunch. Each of the wineries had a unique approach to their wine whether it was experimenting with different storage or their use of grapes. All the wines were delicious and the staff at each of the wineries were very knowledgeable. And lunch was fantastic. It’s a local family run restaurant that transports you back in time. Definitely have the lamb ribs! One of the highlights of my time in the region 😊
We had a fantastic experience on the Rioja Uncorked tour with Ikusnahi Tours and cannot recommend it highly enough. Our guide, Ernes, picked us up promptly at 8:15 a.m. in a comfortable Mercedes six-passenger van and immediately set the tone for an exceptional day. During the drive to Rioja, he shared a fascinating history of the region, taught us a few Basque phrases, and gave us an excellent introduction to Rioja wines and the different classifications used to categorize them. His knowledge, enthusiasm, and friendliness made the journey as enjoyable as the winery visits themselves. Over the course of the day, we visited four wineries, enjoying three wines at each stop along with thoughtfully selected snacks. Every winery host was welcoming, informative, and passionate about their wines. The tastings were generous, the wines were delicious, and each winery offered a unique perspective on the region’s winemaking traditions. The scenery throughout the day was absolutely stunning. The drive through Rioja wine country is gorgeous, with beautiful landscapes in every direction. Despite fitting so much into the day, the pace never felt rushed, and we were comfortably back at our apartment by 5:00 p.m. If you’re visiting the Basque Country and have any interest in wine, this tour is an absolute must. Outstanding guide, wonderful wineries, excellent wines, breathtaking scenery, and seamless organization from start to finish. Five stars!
We were a group of six friends who did a full day Rioja wine tour from Bilbao. We had an absolutely fantastic day. We visited three wineries and each was very different which made for a very interesting day with a great variety of outstanding wines. Lunch was also fantastic with great food and wine. The best thing about the tour was our guide Luis - he gave us lots of information about the region, the wineries and the wine and was fantastic company throughout the day. We all really enjoyed the whole day.
You're right. Repeating the same emoji, the same structure and the same closing line makes the replies feel templated. From now on I'll vary: * The opening, instead of always "Thank you so much..." * The focus, sometimes highlighting the guide, other times the group, the landscape, the wineries, the food, or a specific moment from the review. * The ending, avoiding "Hope to see you back..." every time. * No recurring emojis unless they genuinely fit the review. For example, I'd answer that last review like this: Thank you for spending the day with us and for sharing such a thoughtful review. We're delighted that you enjoyed the different styles of wineries, as we carefully choose them to show how diverse and fascinating Rioja really is. Luis will be very happy to hear that his passion and knowledge helped make the day even more memorable. Days like yours, with great conversations, beautiful landscapes and good wine shared among friends, are exactly why we love doing what we do.
My husband and I had the best time in the Rioja Alta and Alavesa wine regions with our guide Luis! We booked a group tour but no one else signed up so it ended up private. We were lucky to have Luis as our guide to make it an incredible day! The itinerary was perfect - we loved the drive through the mountains, farmland, and vineyards, and Luis kept us on track without over managing the day. All the wineries we went to were excellent and we didn’t feel awkward even though we are not educated wine drinkers. Also nothing felt overproduced as we were nervous about booking any tour initially - but certainly made the right choice with this one. Luis was incredibly knowledgeable about the region, wines, and anything and everything basque. He was also just fun to spend the day with and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience! We hope to be back again soon!! I should add - the lunch was excellent quality and will certainly be one of the highlights of our trip as well!
What a lovely review, thank you. We especially enjoyed reading that nothing felt overproduced, because that is exactly what we try to avoid. Rioja is at its best when experienced at a relaxed pace, meeting real people, visiting wineries with character and leaving room for spontaneous conversations along the way. We're also glad you felt comfortable even without a deep wine background. Great wine experiences shouldn't be reserved for experts, they should be enjoyable, welcoming and fun for everyone. And yes, that lunch has a habit of becoming one of the highlights of the trip! We hope Rioja Alta, Rioja Alavesa and Luis gave you plenty of reasons to come back someday.
We had the best day hanging with our guide Luis and learning about the Basque Country and Rioja wine region! He was incredibly knowledgeable about the region and the wines - and was super fun to chat with too. We could not have had a better experience. The 3 vineyards we visited were all unique with their own traditions and wines that gave us a great idea of what Rioja Wine Country is all about. We had an unbelievable lunch to cap off the trip too. Would recommend this tour with Luis for anyone interested in learning about Rioja Wine Country and how tightly it is connected to the Basque region as a whole.
Thank you for such a fantastic review. One of the most interesting things about Rioja is that the story goes far beyond wine, it's deeply connected to the culture, history and people of the wider Basque region. We love that you enjoyed discovering those connections while visiting three very different wineries, each with its own personality and traditions. And we're especially happy to hear that the day felt as fun as it was informative. Great wine, great conversation and an unforgettable lunch is a pretty good recipe for a day in Rioja. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with Luis! 🍷
We had the BEST day in Rioja thanks to our amazing tour guide, Louis! 🍷✨ He took us to two incredible wineries and a delicious lunch, and made the entire experience so special from start to finish. Not only was he unbelievably knowledgeable about wine, Spain, and the Basque Country, he was so genuine and sweet - truly an angel!! 💛 We learned so much, laughed nonstop, and felt completely taken care of the entire day. You can tell he’s so passionate about what he does, and it made the experience unforgettable. Would 1000% recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area. Thank you for such a magical day!! 🥂
Thank you so much Libby! We are so happy you had such a special day in Rioja with Luis :) He has a beautiful way of mixing wine, culture, history and fun together, and we love hearing that you felt so well taken care of throughout the day. That mix of incredible wineries, long lunches, laughter and the landscapes between Rioja and the Basque Country is exactly why we love what we do. Hope to see you back here one day for another unforgettable adventure! 🍷✨
We had a perfect day in the most gorgeous panoramic wine country with Luis. He had a great vibe and did a great job answering my 21 questions about misc basque history. I was impressed with the wineries we visited they seemed like a very intentional curation. I love meeting people who are passionate about their craft and their communities. Lunch was exceptional. Laguardia was whimsical in way that must be experienced in person.
Thank you for such a lovely review!! This sounds like a Rioja day with all the right ingredients: endless vineyard views, passionate winemakers, long lunches and wandering through the magic of Laguardia. Luis will definitely appreciate the mention of the 21 Basque history questions too ;) We put a lot of care into choosing wineries with real personality and people deeply connected to their craft and community, so it’s wonderful to hear that came through during the experience. And yes… Laguardia really does feel slightly unreal when you see it in person. Also Luis is FANTASTIC!
Luis: it was a great tour! Very informative and fun. Nice snacks with the tastings and very different wineries. Great lunch also! And note for future clients: the van was very comfortable and spacious. It was also fun to be with another couple that was so friendly and humored us old people!
Booked via third party for a small group tour. Turns out it became a private tour as my party was the only group that day. We spent a beautiful day with Luis and Malena. They were deeply knowledgeable and fun to spend the day with; it felt like traveling with two friends who happened to be experts. It was rainy on-and-off as the season dictates, but Luis's expert driving got us around safely and quickly. The wineries visited were fantastic and varied curations showcasing tradition, modernity, and everything in between. Not to mention fantastic wines! Each tasting leader from the wineries themselves were great too. The time spent in Laguardia was so cool. Amazing history in that town and a great view of the region. Lunch was delicious and a very special experience. Thank you Luis and Malena for showing us such an amazing time! We would love to visit with you again and bring our friends & family too!
Thank you so much for these kind words! We absolutely love when a small group day turns into something this personal and relaxed, and we’re very happy Luis and Malena made you feel like you were traveling with friends around Rioja :) Even with a bit of classic Basque weather, there’s something magical about those vineyard landscapes, Laguardia’s history and long lunches with good wine. We’re proud to share both the traditional and modern sides of this region through wineries and local people who truly care about what they do. Eskerrik asko for joining us, and next time bring the friends and family, we’ll happily open a few more bottles together!
This was an unforgettable experience and the best part of our time in Donostia / San Sebastián. The wine was excellent, with interesting hosts, excellent wines, and beautiful views. Our guide Olatz was also a highlight: extremely knowledgeable and extremely fun! Our whole group was blown away. If you only do one thing on your visit, make it this tour!
What a review! ;) Rioja has a way of surprising people, but when you combine beautiful landscapes, passionate winemakers and a fun group atmosphere, the day becomes something really special. We’re so happy Olatz made such an impression on all of you, she brings a lot of energy and heart to these experiences. Being called the highlight of your time in San Sebastián means a lot to us. Eskerrik asko for trusting us with your Rioja day, and hopefully there’s another glass waiting for you here in the Basque Country someday!
