What an amazing day with two incredible hosts!
We started off the day getting picked up by our friendly guides not far from our hotel and then went for a practice on the bikes to ensure good fits and cycling competence. Then we were driven off to the mountains for two cycling routes. One down a beautiful scenic stretch through the mountains (around 6km) and another down towards the vineyard (another 6km). The ride was generally easy going and mostly down hill. Our hosts kept us safe, welcome and heavily informed with interesting facts throughout the whole trip, with the option to ride in the van if the cycling was too tiresome – it’s completely open to however you like it.
We then toured the beautiful vineyard before walking through the local town where we then toured the winery. This was a fantastic opportunity to ask questions about the winery and sample some of their incredible red wine (which was the best I’ve ever had). We bought a beautiful bottle of the Vall Por for €17 which we thought was a bargain for the quality. There is a menu available to purchase wine but no pressure to buy whatsoever!
Afterwards we even stopped off with the whole group at the adjacent wine shop for another glass (or two ) to finish a phenomenal day out.
We then were driven back to Salou comfortably and had plenty of time to enjoy the rest of our evening.
Thank you Downhill Bikes for a fantastic day 10/10 would recommend!
