Founded by Ignacio Segovia, The Wine Bus takes groups of up to 20 people on day trips to wineries around Madrid every Saturday. As its name entails, passengers are welcome to drink as much as they like because someone else is driving. The Wine Bus picks you up at Hotel Claridge (Plaza de Conde de Casal) in Madrid at 9:30 a.m. and drops you off in the same spot at 8:30 p.m. On these tours, you’ll enjoy learning how the wine is made, the stories behind the wineries and of course, taste different wines and eat a great meal, too!

First you’ll have a tour of Avila’s most charming winery, Bodega Garnacha Alto Alberche, where you’ll also have a few tastings and a home cooked meal, followed by a visit to El Hotelito for coffee.
