Take The Slow Road Through Spain’s Big Sky Country
Published by Global Traveler | By Debra Bokur
Spain’s Rioja Region
September and October are the perfect months to explore Spain’s Rioja region — especially if you love to move at an unhurried tempo. The landscape’s winding roads, villages and sun-dappled vineyards are ideal for biking and walking tours, punctuated with leisurely meals and cultural experiences. Butterfield & Robinson can create a bespoke journey that highlights the area with wine tastings, chef-led cooking classes, and visits to renowned sites including sections of the centuries-old Camino de Santiago pilgrim’s road and the modern edifice of Frank Gehry’s stunning Marques de Riscal Hotel.
