Wine tourism<\/strong> is a seriously popular pursuit. Every year, wine lovers from all over travel near and far to visit wineries, vineyards, museums and other wine destinations. There are tons of such destinations throughout Europe and the rest of the world, so there is no shortage of places from which to choose. <\/span><\/p>\n

Some top European destinations include <\/span>Rioja<\/a>, Champagne<\/a><\/strong> and <\/span>Bordeaux<\/a><\/strong>. Further afield, there are must-see regions like <\/span>Napa Valley<\/a><\/strong> in California and <\/span>Marlborough<\/a><\/strong>, New Zealand. You could literally spend your entire life travelling the world\u2019s wine regions and still not see them all.<\/span><\/p>\n

If that sounds tempting, you\u2019re in luck: In this guide, we’ll give you everything you need to organise your very own wine tour, anywhere in the world!<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Deciding where to go<\/strong><\/h2>\n

First things first: Where would you like to visit?\u00a0This is entirely up to you, and will depend on your own preferences, budget and geographical location. Ask yourself a few questions and things will become clear quickly enough!<\/span><\/p>\n

Where do you want to go?<\/h3>\n

This one might seem obvious, but it’s important. Visit the wine region that makes your favourite wines, and avoid places whose wines you don’t like.<\/p>\n

Advocates of Albari\u00f1o<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0should probably be looking at Rias Baixas<\/a><\/strong>, while champions of Chenin Blanc<\/strong><\/a> should head for South Africa<\/strong> or the Loire Valley<\/strong>. That sort of thing.<\/p>\n

Of course, there’s not much sense in visiting Jerez de la Frontera<\/strong><\/a> or Porto<\/strong><\/a> if you can’t stand fortified wines!<\/p>\n

What’s your budget?<\/h3>\n

It’s important to be realistic here. Some wine tours will cost more than others, dramatically so in some cases. Part of this will come down to expenses like travel and accomodation, but there’s more to it as well.<\/p>\n

Some regions are more expensive than others.<\/p>\n
