Utiel-Requena Shore Excursion with Wine Tasting and Port Pickup

Make the most of your day in Valencia with a small-group shore excursion into the wine country of Utiel-Requena. After exclusive pickup at your cruise terminal, travel inland to discover one of Spain’s most historic wine regions. Your first stop is Murviedro in the old town of Requena, where you will explore atmospheric underground wine caves dating back centuries. Here you will enjoy a tasting of three wines accompanied by a local aperitif. Continue to Vera de Estenas, a beautiful family-run estate surrounded by vineyards near Utiel. Visit its elegant historic villa and learn about the region’s winemaking heritage before tasting three Valencian wines with a selection of regional cheeses and charcuterie. This is not a rushed tasting stop: it is a relaxed introduction to the history, landscapes and flavours of Valencia’s wine country. At the end of the experience, return comfortably to Valencia Cruise Port with a planned buffer before your ship’s required return time.
