Wine Tour from Barcelona
 
Going to Barcelona by myself. Would love to go on a 1 or 2 day wine tour, but I am having trouble finding tours that would allow just a single person to join in. Any suggestions or recommendations?

The Torres Vineyard is not too far from Barcelona.

I believe that you can visit this vineyard. This is very nice wine too.

Enjoy

You have posted four times now and each time you mentioned how much you love &quot;Contiki&quot;. Are you working for them. It sure sounds like a scam or a troll or even worse, a shill.

You said you're a student but you're sure travelling with Contiki.

Then again, maybe I'm wrong!

Those are helpful. I guess I was looking for a guided tour (with someone else doing the driving) as opposed to driving out there on my own. I see lots of organized tours of the wine region in Catalonia, but most require larger pre-organized groups.

this was answered by maribel recently.

there is a train from the plaza de catalu&ntilde;a that goes right to the major town.

one of the wineries is next to the train station and the other is a short taxi ride away.

hopefully you can find the posts searching.

torres, cordoniu and freixenet are popular and attractive.
