Reservamos a último momento y fue un acierto total. Muy bien que incluyera tarifas de degustación de viñedos incluidas en tres viñedos. Sin dudas una de las mejores experiencias del viaje.

Solid choice
Very good overall. We finished with a clear picture of how the city fits together. The vineyard tasting fees included at three vineyards is worth it on its own. The only miss was no water available, especially in that heat. Sort those details and it is a ten.

Positivo no geral
Foi bom, com altos e baixos. Muito bom que incluía taxas de degustação de vinhedos incluídas em três vinhedos. O ritmo era confortável, nem corrido nem chato. O áudio cortava em alguns trechos. Boa opção, principalmente na primeira visita.
