    Das Programm war sehr schön. Der Bus war unbequem und für die teure Reise unangemessen alt und ramponiert. Der Reiseleiter war häufig nicht zu verstehen (nicht ausreichend sicher mit der deutschen Sprache)

    Eine super Tour, tolle Landschaft, sehr informativ, Geologie, Geschichte, Ureinwohner, Botanik, es blieb keine Frage offen, unser Reiseleiter hat alles super erklärt und veranschaulicht. Ein sehr angenehmer und freundlicher Mensch. Ebenfalls auch der Busfahrer, der uns sicher und gut über und durch die Berge gefahren hat. Beide sprachen perfektes Deutsch. Der lokale Guide in den Bergen war auch sehr nett mit vielen Information über die Region und Menschen. Sehr leckeres regionales Mittagessen.

    Der Start begann bereits mit 1 Stunde Verspätung ohne zu wissen warum. Eine verlorene Stunde in der Bushaltestelle. Der angeblich sehr gute Reiseführer, Herr Eduardo war auch nicht dabei, sondern ein sehr schlecht deutsch sprechender Biologe. Die Vorführung „Hirtensprung“ war ein Theater,, eine Katastrophe. Die Kostprobe vom Ziegenkäse war gut. Das 5 Gänge Menü serviert in einer Garage, hat nicht den Vorstellungen entsprochen und das Hauptmenü war kalt.

Nat Geo Day Tour: Wine in the Canary Islands - a Sensory Experience

Sipping wine with views of the sun-drenched slopes where it was produced, you'll be immersed in the culture and cultivation of Canarian wines on this exclusive National Geographic Day Tour. Hear about the island's wine-making heritage and embrace the sights, smells, tastes, textures and sounds at a family-run winery as you try four vintages, paired with food at every stop along the senses.First, at La Casa del Vino, a 17th-century estate-turned-museum, you'll be welcomed with a glass of local sparkling wine and a rosquette – a Canarian pastry. Your guide will share the story of how savvy 16th-century Spanish growers planted European vines in the fertile, volcanic soil – catapulting Tenerife onto the global wine scene.Then, it's onto Bodegas El Lomo. See the garden, where rare grapes – almost extinct in Europe – continue to thrive, and sip wine, paired with a signature tapa from visionary chef, Jorge Bosch. The in-house wine specialist will take you through the key scents and stages to reveal a wine's origin in an aroma workshop with another signature tapa. Then, it's out to the patio for harvest snacks with textures of toasted gofio grains and a creamy local goat cheese, served with a fruity carbonic macerated wine. Your grand finale awakens your hearing. In a darkened room, try your final vintage and tapa and tune into how music affects your perception of wine.This is much more than a simple wine-tasting tour – it's a personal insight into how wine can stir the senses.
