A great week of wine and exploration
Thanks to Rebeca and team - Robert, Fito, and Enrique - for a great 6-day tour of Rioja and Ribera del Duero wines and Basque Country exploration. The winery visits were a premium experience - just our group of 4 people spending time with the wine makers, their families, and having gourmet dining experiences in the wineries was amazing. Having toured many wineries in France, Italy and the States, we enjoyed learning about the customs and practices that make Rioja and Ribera wines distinct and delicious. Having a small group experience allowed us to visit unique wineries and understand more of the wine making history in the area in ways you could not do with a large group... We visited wineries in local caves, experimental wineries, and explored locations off the beaten path. Our group liked the concept booking our own hotels, based on Rebeca's recommendations, to allow our group to control this part of our experience. We also enjoyed spending time at Rebeca and Roberts home as friends for a local meal and sampling their family wines. This was a week of great experiences not to be missed.
Response from the operator: Mike, Christie, Alan, and Sean — what an incredible week we had with you! We feel so lucky to have shared such a full and fun adventure together, from hidden cave cellars to long, laughter-filled meals. Your curiosity, kindness, and great energy made every day a joy — and I still smile thinking about the conversations we had around the table at home. We always say that Rioja and Ribera have so much more to offer than just wine (although the wine is a good start!), and seeing you dive into the history, people, and spirit of this land made it all the more meaningful for us too. You’ll always have a spot at our table — come back anytime! Big hugs from all of us, Rebeca, Robert, Fito, and Enrique

An epic adventure through Rioja and Ribera de Duero with people who know people!
As part of a month long journey through Spain my husband and I wanted to learn more about the Rioja and Ribera del Duero wine regions, as wines from those areas are some of our favorites. I came across Rebeca’s website/business, Rioja Like A Native and immediately felt her passion and enthusiasm for sharing the local culture of the area where she grew up and still lives today. From the moment I began inquiring about her tours, Rebeca was extremely responsive, and thorough with her communication. (And she just seemed like a genuinely nice person when communicating). She wanted to know your interests so that she could tailor the experience where necessary, so all we had to do was jump in the car with our guide and enjoy. Rebeca coordinated a private transfer from San Sebastián to Logrono, the starting point of our 2 Day tour of Rioja, as we were traveling Spain without a car, and she advised us local train would have taken much longer and did not have a direct route. Her driver Jose was so lively and fun and made the drive pass quickly. We booked one of her hotel recommendations which was conveniently located in the old town section in Logrono and walkable to all the good tapas bars and restaurants. The next morning we were promptly met by Fito who was our local guide for the 2 day Rioja adventure. Fito didn’t feel like your typical “guide” who is trained to provide specific facts or information, he felt more like a good friend who was driving you around his area, talking to you about his favorite places, and who knows about and enjoys good wine and food. While our adventure primarily included visiting 5 different styles of wineries, it never felt like we were bouncing from one winery to another and doing the same thing at each—-each one had something different to offer, or a surprise of sorts. In addition to tasting a variety of wines, we tasted some typical foods from the area during some of our wine tastings, had lunch in the medieval town of LaGuardia, and just enjoyed the ride with Fito through some beautiful Rioja scenery. One of the highlights our Rioja adventure was wrapping up our 2nd day with a home cooked late afternoon lunch at Rebeca’s house with her, her husband Robert, and cute dog Taino, and putting our new found Rioja wine knowledge to the test in front of them! We sampled some of their family’s wine too, enjoyed hearing about their adventures throughout their own country, and any advice they had for us as we continued our adventure throughout Spain. They truly made us feel like friends at their dinner table, not just their clients. After our Rioja adventure we were picked up early at our hotel by Bruno who whisked us away to the Ribera del Duero which was about a 2 hour car ride from Logrono to our first winery. Bruno came prepared with breakfast treats, beverages and a wealth of knowledge of the wine region to fill our travel time. At our first winery, we had an unexpected tasting. After doing the private tour and high-end wine tasting in their restaurant’s dining room, complete with sweeping views of the vineyards, we thought it couldn’t get any better. We were then presented with the most delicious series of tapas which felt more like a coursed lunch, a truly lovely and relaxing experience while enjoying the epic views. But that wasn’t the real lunch. Next, Bruno drove us to another town where we actually went to “lunch”at restaurant known for a regional specialty, oven roasted Castilian Lamb which was a food highlight for us on our trip to Spain. After our tours and lunching, Bruno dropped us at our hotel in Madrid and kindly texted us later that evening to see if we needed any restaurant or other recommendations for our stay in Madrid or throughout Spain. Even if we had a car while traveling in Spain, without Rebeca and her team of locals we would not have found these interesting and unique experiences on our own. Our 3 day adventure through Rioja and Ribera de Duero was one of the most memorable parts of our trip, and our lives for that matter. It was most certainly enhanced by the local knowledge of Rebeca, Robert, Fito and Bruno, and equally important the great company, kindness, and care they extended to us along the way.
Response from the operator: Dear Angie and Tony, Reading your words has truly touched us — thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience in such detail. We’ve read it (and reread it!) with big smiles on our faces. It’s hard to describe how special it was to spend those days with you both — your enthusiasm, warmth, and genuine appreciation for everything made it feel like we were traveling with old friends. You were so open to discovering not just the wines, but the people, traditions, and quiet magic of Rioja and Ribera del Duero. We’re so happy you enjoyed the rhythm of the tour, the conversations, the food, and of course the wines. The way you embraced each moment — from your scenic lunch with Bruno, to the blind tasting at our table — is exactly why we love what we do. Knowing that this part of your trip became one of the most memorable of your lives is the highest compliment we could receive. You’ve truly left a mark on us as well. We’ll be thinking of you when we next open a bottle of Rioja, and hope our paths cross again one day — whether back in Spain, or wherever life brings us together. Un abrazo (but in English!), Rebeca, Robert, Fito, Bruno and of course, Taíno

Private vineyard tour with experts
Incredible tour with the best, are very professional and know very well the different wineries and vineyards, we were treated wonderfully and visited several wineries, 100% recommended, surely we will return
Response from the operator: Dear Walter and Giovanna, Thank you so much for your lovely words. It was such a pleasure to spend the day with you — from the very first moment, it felt like we were exploring Rioja with old friends. Your enthusiasm and genuine interest in the wines, the people, and the stories behind each winery made the whole experience even more special. We always do our best to create something memorable and personal, and I’m so happy you felt that throughout the day. Rioja will be waiting for your return — and so will we, with more wines, more stories, and more hidden treasures to share. A warm hug from your Rioja family!

Amazing tailored and unique wine touring experience!
We had a wonderful time using Rioja Like a Native and touring through Ribera del Duero and Rioja. Rebecca organized two incredible days of wine touring for us in Ribera and Rioja. We went to some very unique wineries that highlighted the traditions and wines of both regions. The wines were top quality and our guides were very knowledgeable, friendly and fun. They arranged everything for us so all we needed to do was show up with our appetites and desire to drink great Spanish wine! I highly recommend using Rioja Like a Native if you want a great experience and to try some wineries off the well beaten tourist path.
Response from the operator: Dear Lisa & Daniel, What a joy it was to read your lovely words — thank you so much! It was such a pleasure to plan these two special days with you, blending the deep traditions of Ribera del Duero and the soul of Rioja into one unforgettable wine adventure. I’m thrilled you enjoyed the unique wineries, the wines (of course!), and our wonderful guides — they absolutely loved spending time with you both. And I’m so happy everything felt smooth, easy, and full of discovery — that’s exactly the experience we aim for! You brought such great energy and curiosity, and we’re so grateful you chose to explore with us. Whenever you’re ready for round two — more hidden gems, more stories, more amazing wine — you know where to find us! Sending you both a big warm hug, Rebeca Perez Founder & Guide

Awesome Tour - Highly Recommended!
My husband and I were traveling to Spain for my birthday in July and wanted to visit Rioja and Ribera del Duero for the first time. I contacted Rebecca about 4 weeks prior to the trip, and despite the short notice, she quickly responded to my email and was willing to assist. We exchanged emails for a couple of weeks until we finalized the itinerary for our 5 day private tour to Ribera del Duero, Rioja, San Sebastian, Getaria and Bilbao. She was even able to fit in 2 wineries that we wanted to visit. Enrique picked us up in our hotel in Madrid and drove us to Ribera del Duero where we visited two wineries and then had lunch at a local restaurant in the area. Enrique then drove us to our hotel in Rioja. In the evening we walked around the town and had some pintxos on San Juan and Laurel streets. The next day, our guide Fito picked us up at our hotel and we visited two wineries, we had lunch in the medieval town of La Guardia and then visited two other wineries in the afternoon. We were dropped off at our hotel later in the afternoon. On our third day, we were picked up at our hotel again by Fito and we toured two other wineries. We ended our Rioja day trip with a visit to Rebecca’s and Robert’s house. We were greeted by their super friendly dog Taino, we tasted Rebecca’s family house wine and enjoyed a home cooked lunch overlooking Rioja vineyards. On our fourth day, Jose picked us up at our Logrono hotel and drove us to San Sebastian. Once we arrived at our hotel we met our tourguide, Enrique, who took us on an all day walking and pintxos tour of the city. We even got to try the Txakoli and a local cider paired with the outstanding pintxos. On our fifth and last day, Gorka our tourguide, picked us up at our hotel and drove us to Getaria. We visited the Balenciaga Museum and then enjoyed a great lunch at a beach front restaurant. We then drove to Bilbao, walked around the city to see the outside of the Guggenheim Museum and the Puppy. Throughout the tour, Rebecca was in constant communication to check that everything was to our satisfaction. All in all, my husband and I had a great experience. We got to visit different wineries (chateau style, family owned and underground to name a few). We had a lot of fun and even learned new things about wine. All our tour guides were very friendly, knowledgeable and spoke perfect English. We highly recommend Rioja like a Native to anyone that wants to visit Rioja, Ribera del Duero and Basque Country. You will have a great and memorable experience like we did. We look forward to returning very soon!
Response from the operator: Hola Olga and Juan, Wow, what a detailed and wonderful review—thank you so much! It was such a pleasure planning and guiding your epic 5-day adventure through Ribera del Duero, Rioja, and the beautiful Basque Country. I'm thrilled we could fit in everything you wanted, from the wineries you had on your wish list to that pintxos tour in San Sebastián (with a splash of Txakoli and cider, of course!). 🥂 Enrique, Fito, Jose, and Gorka all had a blast showing you around, and I’m so happy you got to experience the variety of wineries and the charm of each region. Taino sends his love, and we’re glad you enjoyed your visit to our home—there’s nothing better than sharing family wine and a home-cooked meal with new friends. We truly appreciate your kind words and high recommendation. It means a lot to us to hear that your birthday trip was everything you hoped for and more. Looking forward to seeing you both again soon for another round of wine, delicious food, and maybe even more birthday celebrations! Cheers to many more adventures! 🍷

Why this scores 55
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
6 Day Wine and Gastronomy Tour of Northern Spain: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Madrid.
How much does 6 Day Wine and Gastronomy Tour of Northern Spain cost?
+
Prices start at $2062 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Madrid usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 6 Day Wine and Gastronomy Tour of Northern Spain take?
+
Plan for about 144 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Madrid is not rushed.
Is 6 Day Wine and Gastronomy Tour of Northern Spain worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Madrid, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 6 Day Wine and Gastronomy Tour of Northern Spain?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is 6 Day Wine and Gastronomy Tour of Northern Spain suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 144-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 6 Day Wine and Gastronomy Tour of Northern Spain?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Madrid can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Madrid and add a light layer if any part of the 144-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 6 Day Wine and Gastronomy Tour of Northern Spain start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Madrid within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Madrid?
+
On Outty we rank every Madrid experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Madrid Essential: Historic Center, Plaza Mayor & Royal Palace, Madrid Walking Tour from Puerta del Sol to Retiro Park, Madrid Oscuro: Torture, Ghosts, Crimes and Legends. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Madrid?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Madrid?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
