Frequently asked questions

Are the tastings included in the guiding fee?

The guiding fee covers the guide's service; the food and drink at each tasting stop are paid separately on the spot. That way you can adjust the selection to your own taste.

Can allergies or dietary needs be taken into account?

Please let us know about any allergies or dietary needs in advance so the guide can choose or adjust the stops accordingly. Since tastings take place at independent venues, a full guarantee cannot always be given.

How large can the group be for this tour?

Because the tasting stops have limited space, this tour works best with smaller groups. Larger groups are possible by arrangement, sometimes with an adjusted itinerary.
