Activity Holidays in Spain

Kick back, fill up your glass, look out over some impossibly picturesque countryside, and feel the pace of life slow… right… down. Our wine holidays are about connecting you with a region properly, this means taking time to savour a culture and a landscape just as much as the quality wines that are produced there.

Whether it’s discovering a delicate Graciano on the charming coast of San Sebastian, relaxing on a boat as you sip a crisp Cava and drift along the coast by Barcelona, or marvelling at Valencia’s skyline as you savour a rich Rioja, every wine holiday in Spain should be this immersive.

    Wine adventures in Spain

    The Spanish view wine as absolutely central to a content way of life, and we agree. It’s something that brings people together, to bond a group of friends or family.

    And Spanish wine is about so much more than rioja, cava and pinot noir, (though they are classics for a reason). A wine holiday in Spain will reveal to you the complexity of Spanish grapes and the connection the wines have with the landscape – all whilst helping you understand Spanish culture and how is reflected in their wine.

    A Spanish wine holiday helps you truly get in touch with an area’s heritage and culture, it’s landscape and physical conditions, and how they all come together to produce incredible, world-leading wines. It’s about exploring via bike, hike and tastebuds, about meeting the people who produce such a luxury that is craved all over the world.

    With local producers, fourth-generation artisans and family-run estates showing you the way around Spanish wines, you’ll return with new skills and satisfied tastebuds.

    Where to experience wine holidays in Spain

    Explore one of the many diverse regions in Spain on a pure wine holiday, or combine your experience with another passion like cycling or sailing.

    Taste stunning cava as you sail out of Barcelona and to the very hills that produce an incredible variety of grapes, getting off the beaten track as you leave the city and discover rustic vineyards, or explore the fascinating city of Valencia and finish your day gazing at the sunset as you try a number of local wines.

    Head to the wild island of Tenerife and visit hugely passionate producers of family-run vineyards and pair your local wine tasting with tapas, or get the ultimate Rioja tour with a Spanish lunch to die for.

    Whatever your tastes, you can find a wine holiday in Spain to indulge your inner sommelier and a group of like-minded people to experience it with. Never settle for an ordinary Spanish holiday again.
