Totally recommend! - Everything. The driver was awesome (thank you Adonis!), each winery (3) was special in a different way. Museum/winery for the history, another for both vineyard education, the best individual sommelier and the very best wine, and the last for amazing views of the caldera! My husband normally does not drink wine but totally enjoyed himself. Totally recommend.
