CANCELLATION POLICY.
See our terms and conditions here.
This is our flagship Penedès wine tour. You’re picked up at 10 am from your Sitges hotel and driven into the countryside by a trained sommelier who knows both the land and the people making the wine. The day takes in two boutique family wineries — typically one focused on cava, one on still wines — with walks through the vineyards, guided cellar visits, and tastings across up to eight premium wines and cavas.
The middle of the day belongs to lunch: a proper three-course Catalan meal prepared with seasonal, local ingredients and paired with wines from the region. Not a packed lunch at a picnic table — a real sit-down, the kind where you lose an hour and don’t mind.
The tour is 100% private. You won’t share it with other guests. The itinerary can be adjusted around dietary requirements, a preference for natural wines, or a particular interest in the production process. This is the tour to book if wine is the main reason you came to Catalonia.
