Rioja Uncorked: Private Wine Experience from San Sebastián

We had a wonderful time on the From San Sebastián: Private Rioja Wine Region Day Tour! 🍷🍇 Our guide, Malena, was knowledgeable, friendly and made the whole experience very enjoyable. We visited beautiful places, enjoyed great scenery, delicious food and, of course, tasted some great Rioja wines. A fantastic day filled with good food, wonderful wine and great company. Highly recommended! ❤️🍷

Enjoyed our wine tour which included tasting at three different wineries along with tasty snacks and lunch. The views were amazing. Carlos was a knowledgeable guide who even dropped us at our Hotel because it was raining.

Two friends and I were staying in San Sebastián for three days. We took this tour to Rijoca and had the most wonderful day. Martin our guide was charming and knowledgeable. The wineries we visited were ‘boutique’ type makers all of whom were passionate about the wines they offered. We tasted a variety of wines from the region and learned about how they are produced. The tasting offered both traditional styles and some more modern and experimental wines. The tour also includes a very delicious lunch of regional specialties.

This was the best day tour that we have ever done. An amazing experience from start to finish. Fantastic Rioja wines to savour and great food to share! The views and the wineries were fantastic. Each one a unique experience. And our host Martin looked after us like royalty all day from start to finish! Highly recommend this tour! Brenton and Julie.

Our guide Martin was amazing. We learned so much about Basque culture and the wine county. We visited 4 wineries and made a quick stop in Laguardia for a pintxo. The first one (Javier San Pedro Ortega) was our favorite because they took the time to present their wines and had an elaborate pairing menu. Special shout out to Ostatu who also proposed interesting and original wines and gave us a warm welcome. If I had to change something, it would be the final wine bar which seemed like an unnecessary quick stop with a description card instead of an actual person talking to us. But overall, we had a great day with Martin! I would recommend.

Don’t miss this La Rioja wine tour! Ania is a very knowledgeable and entertaining guide who knows her wines, the history of the Rioja region and the wine making process from medieval times to today. Come ready to try wonderful Rioja wines, a tasty lunch a visit to a quaint medieval town!

We had such an amazing time with Telmo - great guide, delicious wine and absolute stunning scenery! Communication beforehand and pickup were smooth. The selection of the wineries were excellent and perfectly prepared. Telmo was a great host, sharing his knowledge during the car ride with us! The whole trip deffo a 10/10

This tour could not have been better! Our tour guide and driver, Mikel, picked us up in a clean and comfortable vehicle at the arranged time. On the drive to the Rioja wine region, we discussed the day’s itinerary, history, culture, architecture, grape growing and wine making of the area. Mikel was very knowledgeable and engaging. We stopped for coffee, pastries and photo ops in a historic town and outside of 2 famous wineries known for their stunning architecture. The three wineries where we wine-tasted were all so different and all of the wines were delicious. Lunch at a family-run restaurant was one of the best meals we had in Spain. I highly recommend Ikusnahi Tours and Mikel and would book with them again!

We are from Japan and went to San Sebastian since we are foodie and had an excursion to Rioja wine region. Telmo, our guide, picked us up promptly in morning and gave us such a educational tour of Rioja region as well as Basque region. Very Knowledgeable of the history of Spain and Basque country. Many helpful tips and additional wine explanation during the winery tours. We thoroughly enjoyed our private tour!

Such a fun day visiting wineries, strolling around Laguardia and stopping for lunch! The three wineries we visited were a great variety and the wines we tasted were delicious. So glad we did this tour from San Sebastián!
