About this activity
If you are fond of wines and want to

discover one of the most prestigious wine areas of Spain, we invite you to come with us to Ribera del Duero. The excursion departs

every day Monday to Saturday from Madrid.

You will be

picked up in Madrid at 9:15 am and depart towards Ribera del Duero. The Duero river, also known as the river of wine, is about 2 hours from Madrid and it is the home of tempranillo, the most famous Spanish grape variety (red wines with full body and lots of fruit).

Visit three of their most representative wineries, modern and traditional, and their vineyards. You will do

a full visit in one of them, learning about winemaking in Ribera (riverside in spanish), and understanding tempranillo wine from the grape to the bottle.

A real immersion in the culture of wine. Also included a scenic stop at Segovia, with free time.

 

First stop will be one of the most representative wineries in the region, where you will taste the freshness and elegance of their aged wines, feeling the extraordinary complexity of this land.

Two more wineries and cellars will be visited during the day.

We always select wineries that are different, mixing tradition and modernity, to get a broad understanding of one of the most famous wine regions in the world. Every stop will bring a surprise, and you will learn about traditional wine making, modern architecture and limited productions that make special wines.

There will be free time to have Lunch at your own choice (lunch is not included in tour price. We do not impose a menu) You can lunch with the guide in a traditional restaurant with several options of Castilian regional food ranging from tapas, a light lunch or a full 3 course lunch. (Aprox budget, tapas 12/15€, Full 3 course 30€)

Enjoy a scenic stop at the picturesque city of Segovia with free time before departing to Madrid.

Finally you will

return to Madrid with the memory full of great flavors and wonderful experiences. The duration of the tour is between 10 to 11 hours depending on Madrid traffic.

This tour will bring you an exceptional experience, blending new and old wine making techniques, vineyards growing in extreme weather conditions, and the work of families who have converted this great region into one of the most popular red wine regions in the world. Let us accompany you among landscapes of contrasting colors, wines full of taste and aromas, traditional cuisine and the exceptional heritage which is still preserved in the wine region of Ribera del Duero.

We came on our honeymoon and thought that taking an all day trip out to Ribera del Duero may be too much. But it was perfect. It was a small group and the driver was very experienced in the wine industry and the 3 wineries we were taken to treated us like royalty. To boot we got a real treat as we are from south Florida and it began to snow. It was the perfect day! Highly recommend this tour.

We decided that do a vineyard tour in Ribera del Duero region and the experience exceeded our expectations. We visited three bodegas/vineyards: Dominio de Cair, Val Soltillo and Legaris. The wine was exquisite: rosé and/or white and red. The local tour was done by Gourmet Madrid and the tour guide—Jorge— was great and knowlegeable. We were able to buy wine and ship it home. Would do it again in a heartbeat. Thank you Jorge from Gourmet Madrid.

An amazingly sophisticated visit to several vineyards and wine making facilities. The tour guide was an expert with family in the industry. Private and professional. Worth visiting these select vineyards.

This has a potential of very interesting tour. The wineries visited are worthwhile and some of them are truly unique. There is only one problem, our guide was scheduled to take another tour around in Madrid that night. It was his priority to get back to Madrid to make it to the tapas tour that night and little else mattered. This is not necessarily a bad review of that particular guide but rather the system that schedules this way. We were rushed to get going all day, barely had time for lunch and last winery visit was essentially crumpled to nothing. Also, visit to Segovia was just a glance and we were just pressed to get back to the bus. As the result the time spend at some places was not very worthwhile and at some point I felt like I am being pronged like cattle to get back into the bus. I just don't think this is good for anyone including the guide, visitors and tour company. Overall, very mediocre experience because of these issues. Real pity, it could have been a highlight of our time in Madrid.

This trip consisted of visiting 3 different wineries, all very interesting. The wine pours were generous, although some of the wines seemed a little young/unbalanced. There was a chance to buy some of the wines, but no hard-core sales occurred. The guides at the wineries were enthusiastic, and eager to share their knowledge. Our tour guide, Enriquez was very informative and passionate about the wines as well. The lunch was great, and a good value for a small price. The most confusing thing was the meeting spot in the morning. The address was very vague, and there was nothing to designate the open area as the meeting spot. Fortunately, the group found each other, as we had asked for directions at many of the store fronts at this street intersection, and not one person was familiar with the tour or company! This needs to be fixed.

Very informative guide. Lively experience and small group experience was wonderful. Although we paid for lunch, guide made sure we experienced authentic Castillian cuisine. Although I had a cane and had to walk carefully over uneven surfaces slowly, guide was quite helpful and made sure I was safe and helped me navigate stairs w/o railings. All in all, an excellent tour.
