Not so Private cava tour

This is not a private tour. Paid for a “private” tour which was actually just a private driver but we were grouped with a tour van full of people that we were with the entire time. We had a few extra snacks provided to us during the tastings. Should have saved $ and just gone with a group. Rob, our guide and both wineries was great and the properties are stunning.

Hi, We are really sorry about this, ios very very strange, we are going to talk with the cellar because they were advised that this was a private tour. We are really sorry about this situation Regards Melanie

Treat yourself to this day trip!

Being picked up at our hotel in a classy Mercedes minivan by Montse was a real treat. She told us all about the Penedes wine region en route and took excellent care of us. The cava and wine tastings were incredible and we will treasure this day for a long time.

No show. Big disappointment 😢

We were really looking forward to this trip. Wine is our passion and we love to explore places we haven’t been to before so a trip to Penedes was just what we were looking for. The only trouble is no one turned up. Communication was late too as we were not told it was cancelled until an hour after the promised pick up time. Then to rub salt in the wound we had an email from Trip Advisor that our refund could take 5 days. This is an expensive trip so spend your money wisely! We clearly didn’t!

Operator response

Hi, as we told you by email we really apologize of this action, when we received your booking on Friday 30, we canceled the tour in that moment because it was sold out, but we don't know why , if it has been a problem of the system or of internet connection ,we thought the action was cancelled and it was not cancelled. Again we want to apologize, and as we told you, yesterday we offer you a free private tour for you around Barcelona Gothic Quarter as compensation, because the winery was sold out until Wednesday. We are really sorry about it, and we understand your deception but really we don't know exactly what had happened. Really sorry!!!

Great tour of Penedes!

From the moment Paco picked us up at our airbnb in the Mercedes van, the trip was fantastic. There were only 5 of us so we were able to see and hear every word from the guides at Can Bas in the Penedes region. Our guide, Ariadna, gave great explanations of the wines and the reasons for using each glass. Part of our tour was in the rain and even that was calming and interesting. All 5 of us give the tour 10 stars out of 5!!

Operator response

Thanks for your feedback!! We are so happy to read your word. See you again around Barcelona Regards Melanie

Fantastic day and gift between vineyards

My daughter gave me a wine and food tasting tour included through Barcelona Discovery, I was lucky enough to share it with my friends. In the morning we were picked up by Melanie, responsible for Barcelona Discovery, and we went towards Vilafranca Penedes to the Cavas Llopart, beautiful cavas in the middle of the Subirats vineyards, the visit was very enjoyable and interesting, we discovered many things. We finish the visit with a tasting of wines and appetizers of local products, very good!!! After the visit we had a great and copious meal in the restaurant El Mirador de las Cavas. It was a full day and a very original gift in good company. I highly recommend it! Thank you very much Mélanie for your attention and great professionalism.

Wonderful, romantic experience for our honeymoon!

Melanie with Barcelona Discovery took us to a beautiful winery outside of Barcelona. After a wine tasting and tour of the facilities we were given a picnic basket and map that led to a private table set up in the middle of the vineyard. It was a highlight of our trip!
