5.00We had a wonderful day touring Rioja with Matteo which included visits to three wineries and a delicious lunch. Matteo was friendly, punctual and knowledgeable. The wineries we visited had a variety of styles both in their architecture as well as their wines and each one was extremely enjoyable.
Beautiful Day in Rioja

5.00We wanted to visit the Rioja wine region whilst staying in San Sebastian. The easiset and best option for us was a tour that included private transportation. So well worth it! Mateo picked us up on time right outside of our hotel. We started at a family owned winery and had a tour of the facility with a thorough explanation of their operation and wine making process. The next winery we spent about an hour and tasted very limited production wines as well as their privately made olive oil. Each of these wineries provided us light meat and cheese snacks. In between the second and third wineries, Mateo took us to a small town known as Laguardia with picturesque views. Mateo was very informative with history of not only the towns we drove through but also the wine of Rioja. The third and final winery provided us with an excellent and very filling Rioja lunch (be sure to not fill up on said previous snacks ...lunch was large but amazing). Mateo was an excellent driver and tour guide and we are very pleased we chose this tour for the afternoon!
Fantastic, no-stress day...

5.00Mateo was a wonderful host - very attentive and knowledgeable. We visited 3 amazing wineries, each with a different look and feel and each offering a selection of special flagship wines. To top off the experience, we were treated to a spectacular traditional Riojan lunch. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to enjoy some fine wines, good food, and a memorable day out in the countryside!

5.00We recently did a private wine tour in Rioja, and it was one of the highlights of our trip to San Sebastián. Our guide, Mateo, was incredibly knowledgeable—not just about wine, but about the entire Rioja region. Each stop was thoughtfully curated, and we never felt rushed. The wine tastings were very generous and paired with delicious local snacks—cheeses, chorizo, bread and olive oil. We also enjoyed a delicious 3 course lunch with a bottle of red. Despite the rainy weather, the scenery throughout the day was stunning. Every detail was taken care of, and we could simply relax and enjoy. If you’re a wine lover, I can’t recommend this enough.
