What a day!!! My fiance and I had the great pleasure of going on a day long wine tour that included a beautiful lunch in a 10th Century village. The flow of the tour was very well planned. We learned something different about the wine making process at each winery, three wineries in all. We learned everything from the agricultural side of wine making to processing of the grapes to the history of the region itself. Oh…and there was the wine drinking! We honestly could not have asked for a better experience from Rioja Like A Native. To date this is one of my favorite traveling experiences and my fiance and I would, and do, tell anyone that this tour is so worth the time should you find yourself in the Rioja region of Spain …  Read more

We had such an amazing time on our tour with Rioja Like a Native. Rebeca was a fantastic guide and made it feel more like touring with a friend than a guide. She was super knowledgeable and went the extra mile to make sure we were comfortable, having fun and learning. The selection of wineries was perfect and allowed us to experience different environments, wine making methods and flavors. It was a great trip through the history of the region as well. The transportation was first class, the wineries were great, lunch was delicious and Rebeca was top-notch; this was one of our best wine experiences ever and would highly recommend. Rebeca is great. Cheers! …  Read more

I have had the liberty to book last minute and join the group for one of my most favorite wine days. Rebecca went out of her way with helping me figure out my transportation to join the group as I took a day off trekking the Camino and had to get to my next town. I have done many wine tours in Canada, Napa, Sonoma and Oregon, but this one was very unique from any others. From each visit we did, they all shared educational components that complimented each other. An entertaining and educational day. Our group was a ton of fun and Rebecca incubated that funness. Rioja Like A Native tours is your premium choice. Highly recommend – you won’t be disappointed. You may get a little tipsy though! …  Read more

What a fantastic decision to book with ‘Rioja like a Native’! Our 2 day tour gave us such a wonderful experience that we will never forget. We were four friends who wanted to learn and have fun and drink wine and we certainly did just that. Rebeca was our guide and she was so knowledgeable about everything to do with the wine and the wine making and it was obvious that she had a good relationship with all of the wine growers. We stayed in Logroño and Rebeca picked us up from the hotel. We were walking in beautiful vineyards and tasting wine within an hour. We visited 6 very different wineries from small scale to super modern and met the wine makers in person, all of whom were such lovely, friendly people who were passionate about their wine. You could not achieve this total experience by trying to arrange these tours yourself. We highly recommend ‘Rioja like a Native’ for making your trip truly special. Thank you Rebeca for making it easy for us to book and for planning our tours so perfectly and thank you Rebeca for a fabulous 2 days. We need to return to buy more wine!!!!!!!! …  Read more

This was by far the best wine tour and tasting I can remember in recent history. Why? First of all Rebeca is flexible and can pivot quickly to meet your needs. We stayed in the Marques and did that wine tour on our own without her. However Rebeca took us to the roads less traveled and we had a more intimate tour with winemakers she picked. The difference between these family vineyards and their cool history is a must see. The Marques was just a retail wine tour meant to herd cattle as fast as possible. In the places we went the winemakers served us cheese and meats and it seems to be a coordinated effort to ensure the customer is happy. If you need something special or not the menu, just ask and Rebeca will make it happen giving memories that you cannot purchase. I can’t say enough about how much of a highlight of our time in Spain this trip was …  Read more
