Spanish Wineries 3-Day Tour Packages

TourCrafters Showcases Spanish Wineries with 3-Day Packages

Libertyville, IL, April 19, 2010—TourCrafters is launching a special online brochure, Winery Tours and Tastings All Over Spain, featuring 3-day/2-night Escape packages that include city hotel accommodations with breakfast, a one-to-three-day car rental, and a visit to a nearby winery. The Escape packages provide a chance to visit some of Spain’s most appealing cities and towns and to taste and learn about Spain’s most interesting wines.  (Those who would rather eat than drink, can substitute a gourmet lunch in an authentic local restaurant for the winery visit.)

For example, couples booking the Barcelona Escape can drive from Barcelona to the nearby Vilarnau Winery for a guided tour of the wine cellars and a tasting of their Spanish “champagne” and other wines, then enjoy the sights, shopping and restaurants of Barcelona.  The package starts at $319 per person and includes two nights at the Hotel Catalonia Albeniz in Barcelona, daily breakfast, a one-day car rental and the visit to the winery. This escape can be combined with a Pintxos in Pamplona package, which provides two nights at the Hotel NH El Toro in this city known for the running of the bulls, breakfasts, a three-day car rental and a  walking tour with pintxos (Basque tapas) and wine tasting in four different bar/restaurants (from $359 per person). Then a drive through La Rioja wine region can be added, ending up in Bilbao, where there are several packages available.

There are similar Escapes from Vitoria (Remelluri Winery in La Rioja), Toledo (Bodega Otero in Castilla-LaMancha), Albacete (Bodega Los Aljibes in Castilla-LaMancha), Ciudad Real (Bodegas Vidal del Saz in La Mancha), Marbella (Wine Museum of Mijas), Jerez (Williams & Humbert Wine Cellar in the sherry capital), Valladolid (Bodegas Zifar in the Ribera del Duero) and many more, ranging in price from $269 to $409, land-only.

All prices quoted are per person, double occupancy, and are subject to availability and change.  For additional information about these wine tours and other packages to Spain, visit www.tourcrafters.com.  For reservations, call 800-482-5995.
