This day trip to La Rioja from Vitoria combines vineyard landscapes, contemporary architecture, historic villages, and a guided wine experience.
You'll travel by private transport from Vitoria to a modern winery set among the vineyards. Here, a guided visit of around one hour and 30 minutes introduces the winemaking process, from work in the vineyard to ageing in the cellar. The visit ends with a tasting of two wines – a barrel‑aged white and a premium red – paired with two gourmet tapas.
Afterwards, you'll stop at the Marqués de Riscal viewpoint, known for its striking contemporary architecture and panoramic views across the surrounding countryside.
The tour continues in Laguardia, a well‑preserved medieval walled town. Walking through its cobbled streets with your guide, you'll learn about its history and underground wine tradition. You'll then have free time until 15:00 to enjoy lunch and explore at your own pace.
This La Rioja day trip from Vitoria includes transport, a local guide, and a wine tasting, offering a well‑rounded introduction to the region's wine culture, heritage and landscapes.
