Set just outside Barcelona in the renowned Penedés wine region of Catalunya, Spain, the “Tour safari entre viñedos” offers a captivating way to experience this celebrated landscape without lifting a finger behind the wheel. This 3-hour and 45-minute adventure takes visitors deep into the heart of rolling vineyard estates aboard a vintage Mehari, a classic Citroën vehicle known for its open design and nostalgic charm. As the Mehari cruises over gentle hills and rustic paths, guests enjoy sweeping views of endless grapevines, framed by the backdrop of Mediterranean mountain ranges, that stretch as far as the eye can see.
Known as Spain’s premier cava-producing region, Penedés is dotted with family-run vineyards and grand estates, where local winemakers craft some of the country’s finest sparkling wines. This safari tour places you at the center of that tradition, unveiling stories about the region’s agriculture, grape varieties, and cava-making heritage, told engagingly by knowledgeable guides. Unlike standard wine tours, this experience blends open-air adventure with cultural immersion, allowing a full sensory appreciation of the vineyards’ aromas, textures, and panoramic beauty.
One of the tour’s highlights is stopping mid-route for a carefully curated glass of authentic cava, poured in the shadow of the vines. This intimate moment underlines the connection between the terroir and the sparkling wines that have put Penedés on the global map. Though the terrain is gentle, the bouncing open-air ride in the Mehari provides a refreshing break from city bustle and invites travelers to slow down and soak in the pastoral surroundings.
Located at Carrer Can Costes, 267, the departure point is conveniently accessible from Barcelona, making it possible for day-trippers and longer-term visitors alike to discover this gem of Catalunya. The Mehari safari is particularly suited for travelers who want a blend of relaxation, discovery, and unique photo opportunities in a picturesque rural setting. It’s also a standout offering in the local outdoor recreation scene due to the vintage vehicle experience and the unhurried pace that contrasts with typical vineyard visits.
After the tour, visitors can complete their excursion with a meal at the on-site facilities, adding a gastronomic layer to the adventure. Whether you’re a wine enthusiast or just seeking an authentic outdoor excursion in Spain’s wine country, this safari tour provides an immersive experience that captures the essence of Penedés’ charm and viticultural heritage.
