About this tour

A 7-hour wine and food tour in the Utiel-Requena region, an hour from Valencia, combining vineyard visits with a seated tapas meal. You'll tour two wineries to learn how wine is made, taste at each stop, then settle at a family winery table for four tapas, dessert, and a shared bottle of wine. English-language guide throughout. Best for small groups who want to eat and drink without heavy physical exertion.

Highlights

  • Two winery tours with wine-making process explanation
  • Wine tasting at each of the two vineyards visited
  • Seated four-course tapas meal at Vera de Estenas family winery
  • Dessert and bottle of wine included with meal
  • Private transportation from Valencia area
  • English-language tours throughout the day
  • Water, bread, and coffee included

What to expect

You'll be picked up and driven to the Utiel-Requena wine region. At the first winery, a guide explains the wine-making process and you taste wines; the same happens at the second location. After both visits, you're seated at a prepared table at Vera de Estenas family winery. There you'll eat four tapas courses (chosen by your group beforehand) and dessert, accompanied by wine—one bottle per two people, plus water, bread, and coffee.

The whole experience runs seven hours including travel time. The pacing is leisurely: you're not rushing between stops or standing for long periods. Tastings and the meal are the focus.

Good to know

This suits wine enthusiasts and food lovers who want a relaxed introduction to Spanish wine regions without strenuous hiking or standing. It's not ideal if you have spinal injuries, pregnancy, or significant cardiovascular concerns—check with your doctor beforehand. The tour involves some winery walking and a full day out, so moderate mobility is assumed despite 'all fitness levels' language. Private transport is included, so no need to arrange your own. You choose your four tapas and wine beforehand as a group. Peak season (spring/autumn harvest time) may mean busier wineries. The tour is in English, which may matter if your group speaks another language.
