We were a group of five people fron St Jaen Pied the Port to Pamplona and everything were easy for us. We had some problem with one of our collegue and they sent a taxi to pick her up. The hotels were in a good place and the food were great. The only thing that I suggest is to take breakfast early because in July the weather is very hot

Juanjo took us on an amazing tour of the Albariño wine region. He took us to four vineyards that were unique and each made Albariño in a slightly different way. They were not commercial wineries and each one had an owner/winemaker whose passion for making Albariño shown through in their product. Juanjo took care and effort in selecting these places and really made the tour special. He has extensive knowledge of the region and was an excellent guide. For lunch, he offered us several options and we went with a local restaurant in a seaside town that had excellent seafood and was a good break in between wine tastings. The Pulpa a feira was delicious. I highly recommend Juanjo for a fantastic experience in Albariño wine country
