This is a terrific tour. This is must for folks that like food and great olive oil. The tour shared all facets of the growth of olive trees and how olive oil is pressed. The sharing of all the different types of oil made from the different olives was very educational. I recommend this tour for everyone. The tour guide and the Olive Oil Company employees were more than fantastic. The pride in their work was very evident. The tasting experience, wine and tapas were exceptional.
Hi ! Thanks for your lovely review. We hope seeing you again at Barcelona. Kindest Regards.Melanie
We spent a glorious 10 days touring all of the must-see sights, but ended our vacation with the private oil tasting tour--which was an interesting change of pace. We learned so much about how olive oil is made, how to distinguishes good olive oil. We loved walking the beautiful landscape of the olive tree plantings and the intimate environment where the tasting was held. We were so happy to be able to bring some of the amazing oils home for ourselves and as gifts. Would definitely recommend this trip and Barcelona Discovery. Melanie was just awesome to work with!
Thanks Linda!!We feel happy when our guests are happy!!! We hope seeing you again around Barcelona Melanie
Melanie was amazing! If I ever go back to Spain I am booking all my tours with her company. She has quaint and unique places to take you for super affordable prices, and mostly everything is private if you like. The Olive Oil Tour was great and informative. The property was beautiful, and I definitely recommend buying some chocolate bars (made with olive oil.)
Thanks Andrea for your lovely review, we are happy when our clients are happy!! See you soon. regards. Melanie
