You have never been on a wine tour until you've been on this one! Although I've only gone to a couple wine tours (Sonoma and Napa), I think I can say that this one is the best yet. You are taken to two wineries where they give you a taste of a few wines and a tour through the facilities. They also give you background on the history of the winery and the makers. The cava portion of the tour was my favorite part. I would try to explain how incredible each facility was, but everything would be an understatement. If you are contemplating whether or not this tour is for you, I say DO IT!! You will not be disappointed. However, bring something to eat because they don't provide food (only little palette cleansers).
