The tour was ecxellent! The guide was the most entertaining and knowledgeble Madridian that you could imagine. He spoke very well english, which is a bit rare in Madrid. The tour cost 59 EUR without lunch (25 EUR) which I found very well priced. It lasted 10-11 hours which was perfect. Solterra was the best winery to visit, although the guide had to translate the information of the winery expert. Sepulveda was beautyful as well as Hoces del rio Duraton (these we visited after the winery). I highly recommend the wine bus!

Thank you very much for your comment. We are happy that you liked the winery we visit. The man who accompanied us during the visit (the wine maker) could only speak in Spanish but what he said was so rich, and interesting that we think it is worth to visit these kind of wineries with beautiful facilities, splendid wines and very good speech, even if they do not speak English. We think we prefer to translate simultaneously and we think it is the best formula. But we are open to change our policy because we are learning all days to do things better. I agree with you that Sepulveda and las Hoces del Duraton were wonderful that day. Again thanks for your recommendation. :) We expect to see you again on the Winebus.

This was a perfect way to spend a Saturday outside of Madrid. Ignacio, the guide, was welcoming, knowledgeable, and organized. Although we spent the day speaking Spanglish, his English is strong enough for non-Spanish speakers to enjoy the tour. We started off picking up bocadillos and queso to be enjoyed picnic-style after the tour and wine tasting at the Bodega Mont-Reaga, the winery we visited. To accompany our bocadillos and queso, we picked out several bottles of wine from Mont-Reaga, all of which was included in the very reasonable price of the tour. Our wine glasses were also full as we enjoyed the Medieval World Championship Combat at the Castle of Belmonte and later, when we visited molinos (windmills) a la Don Quijote. At that local, we not only savored the wine but also had the opportunity to appreciate the beautiful sunset over the hills of Mota del Cuervo, a story-book ending to an absolutely wonderful day.

Thank you very much for your comment. It is very descriptive of what happened. We intend that people enjoy with experiences that wake up their 5 senses. To visit the wind mills of La Mota del Cuervo was not on the program. We heard during the tour about your interest in visiting one true wind mill and we had it very closed to where we were. We had already our prize when we saw your reaction when visiting it. Thank you for coming. Thanks for your comment. Thanks for allowing us to enjoy your company. Thank you. Thank you very much.

I cannot say enough about this tour! Ignacio, the guide, is absolutely wonderful. He is very friendly, excited, and knowledgeable, and speaks good English for any non-Spanish speaking visitors. His choice of winery was excellent and the wine itself was superb. We toured the whole winery while the guide informed us about their specific wine-making process, and then we had a casual tasting of 4 different wines (all full glasses).
Afterwards we had a picnic (with pre-purchased sandwiches and more wine) in front of a castle, after which we toured. We happened to be there for the Medieval Combat World Championship, which was quite exciting.
Finally, once Ignacio realized how badly I wanted to see a true La Manchan windmill, he performed a short detour to take our group to a hill with some windmills, over looking the hills of La Mancha. We stopped to take photos, enjoy the sights, and, of course, drink wine. It was the most peaceful and beautiful moment I have had in a long time.
This tour is great for all ages, for all wine lovers, and for all people visiting Madrid. The price is incredibly reasonable (especially after I did some research and couldn't find any wine tours under 200 euros a person). Again, Ignacio is the kindest person and I had such a fabulous time with him and the tour group.
Seriously, what are you waiting for? GO!!

The Winebus is so much more than wine. We went to a fantastic winery beautifully crafted with stunning views of La Mancha. Then we went back in time to a medieval festival and watched a real life Game of Thrones in action at a castle. Finishing the day with a perfect sunset and a glass of wine alongside Don Quijote's white windmills. As a small group plus wine it's easy to make friends and have a real laugh.

Thank you for your comment. The truth is that the combination of a good winery with good wine, the medieval festival and the visit of the wind mills became a nice combination. But best of all is the people who choose our activity. You push and help us to do our best to make an attractive tour with a perfect attitude. We expect to see you on the Winebus again soon. Regards
