“Had a fantastic time here. We started with the guided tour, which was informative, engaging, and made even better by our lovely tour guide, Maggie, who brought everything to life with her knowledge and warmth. After the tour, we made our way to the vineyard—be aware it is about a 15/20 minute walk. Once there, we were greeted by a stunning setting, perfect for unwinding. We enjoyed a generous tasting of wines paired with delicious tapas, all while taking in the beautiful views. The wine tasting experience was thoughtfully explained, giving us a real insight into the process and how to appreciate each glass. We were never rushed, and it…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 88 reviews · 2 - 4 hours · from $58

Review of Mallorca’s family-run vineyard tour from Alcúdia, with five wines, local snacks, countryside views, transport tips, and value advice.

“BEWARE: the transfer to this tour is awful. When you are booking it you have an option of 3 pick up points, but on the day you will also stop at about 7 different hotels. This makes what should be a 20 minute drive over an hour. We were picked up in Alcudia at 3.40pm (10 mins late) and didn't reach the winery until 4.40pm. That being said, the tour itself was great! The owner was incredibly nice and knowledgeable the wine was brilliant and the setting was beautiful. Would go back in a heartbeat, but would make my own way there.”

“Great experience. Not a hard ride. We had originally booked the 4 winery tour but our boat was too late arriving so we did the two winery route. Great bikes, great maps and wineries. We had an amazing lunch at The Mission Winery. I wish we could have stayed longer. It is a very easy bike ride except for the winds. There are a couple of small paths to be careful of on coming bikers but only a couple. The rest is pretty easy.”
