What to expect
Your driver collects you and takes you to your first appointment—arrive on time, as being more than 20 minutes late means forfeiture of the booking. You'll move through two to four vineyard visits depending on your itinerary, walking cellar floors, hearing stories from winemakers or their teams, and tasting directly from their selections. Tastings are paced to let you absorb flavours without rush. Lunch breaks fit between visits; you choose where and what suits your budget. The driver remains available throughout but won't wait indefinitely if you linger at a final stop—clarify this beforehand and expect a cash surcharge if they do.
Good to know
Tasting and entry fees (€150–€300 per person daily) and lunch (€35–€135 per person) aren't included and are paid on-site unless pre-arranged. Wear sturdy shoes for uneven cellar floors and bring a warm layer even in summer. Not suitable for travellers with cardiovascular issues or pregnant travellers. Itineraries can shift due to local conditions; vineyard fees are approximate.
