Review of Malibu Wine Hikes, a guided vineyard loop with Chumash cave paintings, garden views, photo stops, and two wine cans to go.
“The hike. Would’ve been better if there was actually wine tasting involved where you could sit down order cheese and/or food.”
Hike Lanzarote’s volcanic La Geria vineyards, climb near Mount Gaida, learn local farming history, and taste Malvasia wine with a small group.
“Raquel, is an excellent guide and this is the second tour we have done with her. She is really interesting and peppers the walk with short stops to look at interesting features about volcanoes and wine making. The walking is easy but good foot wear is essential, we had walking trainers and they were fine. It was lovely to sit outside at the end of the walk to taste the wine with a little bread and cheese. There was also time to buy wine if you wanted or continue to sit in the sheltered courtyard. We would recommend this tour.”
