Costs, Bookings And Planning Your Wine Day

Fourteen tours sit in the catalog, split across three kinds of day out. Bodega tastings start at $28 per person for the vineyard visit with wine and chocolate, and climb to $94 for a volcanic tasting and pairing at La Geria. Tours with transport run from $80 up to $176 for the six-hour, four-winery tapas day. Three guided walks through the wine country cost between $55 and $57. Every price is per person and quoted in US dollars, because that is the currency the booking platforms use.

Who Runs This Comparison Site

Is this a booking site or a tour operator?

Neither, strictly speaking. This is an independent comparison catalog that gathers Lanzarote's bookable wine experiences in one place so you can weigh them up side by side. The tours themselves are run by operators such as Bodegas El Grifo, Guaticea Lanzarote, Wine Tours Lanzarote and Blackstone Treks & Tours. When a booking is made through a link here, the site earns a commission from the booking platform, which is how the catalog pays for itself. No operator has paid for placement, and rankings reflect the published ratings and prices rather than any commercial relationship.

Does using this site cost me anything?

Nothing. Reading, comparing and clicking through are free, and there is no account to create. The site earns a commission when a booking is completed after a click-through: the platform that sells the tour shares part of the commission it already receives from the operator. That share comes out of the platform's existing margin, so the price you pay matches the price on the live listing you would reach anyway. The disclosure page explains the arrangement in full, and the comparisons hold up as research whether or not you book through a link.

Where do I actually book and pay?

No. We compare tours and link out to them; nothing is booked or paid for here. Clicking through takes you to the live booking page, where you pick your date, pay and receive an emailed voucher with all the joining details. Availability and the final price are shown there too, so check that page before committing.

Costs, Ratings And Canceling

What does a from-price actually mean?

A from-price is the lowest published starting cost for that tour, per person. The published from-prices across the catalog run from $28 for the vineyard tour with wine and chocolate to $176 for the four-wineries-and-tapas day. The figure you actually pay can differ with the date, the group size or options you select on the booking page, so always check the live price there before committing. Nothing on this site adds a markup: the price you see quoted comes from the booking platform, and the price you pay goes to them.

Will I pay the price shown here?

Almost certainly the same or close, but treat the listing as final. Prices here are quoted in US dollars because that is what the booking platforms show, and they can move with season, availability and any extras you add at checkout. If a tour shows a from-price of $105, for instance, your total depends on your chosen date and party size. The amount charged is whatever the live booking page displays when you check out, and that is the number that counts.

Where do the ratings come from?

From travellers who booked and took the tours, collected on the booking platforms. Each rating and review count here mirrors what the listing publishes: the El Grifo tasting carries 4.9 across 365 reviews, the vineyard tour with chocolate 4.8 across 482, and the Three Wineries Tour 5 across 112. Two tours have no reviews published yet, and the page says so rather than guessing. This site does not run its own rating system or edit anyone's score; it simply reports what the listing shows.

Can I cancel or change my date?

All fourteen tours in the catalog publish free cancellation, which typically means you can cancel up to a set number of hours before the start time and get a full refund. The exact cutoff varies by tour, so read the cancellation terms on the booking page before you pay, since that page governs the refund, not this catalog. Changing a date usually means cancelling and rebooking, or contacting the operator through the platform's message system. If your plans hinge on a refund window, screenshot the terms when you book so you have them to hand.

Day-Of Basics

Do I need to be 18 for the wine tastings?

Yes. The legal drinking age in Spain, including the Canary Islands, is 18, and every tour in this catalog includes wine. Operators can and do ask for identification, so anyone who looks close to the threshold should carry a passport or other photo ID. Under-18s can often join the travel portion of a tour, with soft drinks instead of wine, but that is at the operator's discretion and should be arranged through the booking page in advance. Do not assume a child's place includes the tasting; ask first.

Can I visit a bodega without a tour?

You can. Several bodegas in and around La Geria welcome independent visitors, and Bodega Stratvs near Uga runs guided tours daily, about an hour long, covering the facilities, the winemaking process and the vines, finishing with a tasting of three wines with artisanal cheeses from Finca de Uga. Its shop and winery are open daily from 10:00 to 19:00. The advantage of a booked tour is fixed places, transport where offered, and an English-speaking guide, which matters if you are relying on a single afternoon of a package holiday.

Where will I be picked up?

It depends on which kind of tour you book. Five listings include pickup: the four-winery brunch and tapas day and the evening LagOmar tour collect from any hotel, apartment or villa on the island, the three-winery day collects at Matagorda, Puerto del Carmen, Puerto Calero and Tias, the brewery and wine tour runs from Puerto Calero, and the small-group La Geria hike offers optional hotel pickup. The live booking page confirms your exact pickup point and time once you select your hotel. The bodega tastings and the La Geria walks generally do not include transport: you make your own way to the meeting point, which is usually the winery itself or a stated village such as Uga or Masdache. Check the meeting details on the listing before you travel, and allow time to arrive, since these are working wineries with set start times. If you would rather not drive at all, a tour with transport is the safer choice, and there is a practical reason: Spain's drink-drive limit is lower than the UK's, so a day of tasting is best left to someone else at the wheel.

What should I bring on the day?

Start with the confirmation email, because it carries your booking reference, the pickup point or meeting point, and a contact route to the operator behind the day, whether that is Bodegas El Grifo, Guaticea Lanzarote or Wine Tours Lanzarote. This catalogue only compares tours, so nobody here can look up a reservation, swap a date, squeeze in an extra guest or arrange a refund. If something needs changing before the morning of your tour, that confirmation channel is the one with the power to act on it.

Getting To The Bodegas On The Day

Most of the bodega tastings in La Geria sit a short drive off the LZ-30, the road that threads between Uga, Masdache and San Bartolomé, so a hire car covers them easily. If you are staying in Puerto del Carmen, Playa Blanca, Costa Teguise or Arrecife and would rather not drive at all, pick one of the four tours that come with transport: the Three Wineries Tour, the Taste Tradition four-winery day with tapas, the craft brewery and wine combination, or the evening dinner trip that includes LagOmar. There is a practical reason these driven days exist, and it is worth being blunt about it. Spain's drink-drive limit is lower than the one at home, and a wine day means several tastings across several stops, so letting someone else take the wheel is the sensible choice. Only the small-group La Geria hike offers optional hotel pickup; the other walks meet at the start point, and they finish with wine rather than start with it, so the driving question is solved either way. Check the listing for each tour to confirm where it collects from your resort.
