After the tour, you will enjoy a tasting and pairing lunch overlooking the lush vineyards and the glistening blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea.

We recommend treating your other half to a night at BarcelonayFlamenco. In more than 10 years their two main shows, Opera & Flamenco and Gran Gala Flamenco, have been enjoyed by millions.
