Tenerife Food & Wine Tour
Description
Get ready for a mouthwatering adventure as we embark on a food tour of Tenerife's famous guachinches! We'll pick you up at your hotel and kick off the day in style with a visit to the Casa del Vino in El Sauzal. This place is a wine lover's paradise, with its museum, wine cellar, and restaurant housed in a charming 17th-century Canarian hacienda.
At the Casa del Vino, get ready to sip and savor three delightful Tenerife wines - red, rosé, and white. We'll guide you through the intricacies of each sip, from the aroma to the texture, while sharing fascinating insights about the island's winemaking heritage. And of course, we can't forget the delicious selection of local cheeses that will perfectly complement the wine-tasting experience.
After tantalizing our taste buds, we'll head to Santa Ursula to feast at the legendary guachinche Casa Lito. This rustic Tenerife restaurant is the real deal, serving up a scrumptious menu that includes grilled cheese with mojo sauce, escaldón (a traditional corn-based dish), papas arrugadas (literally "wrinkled potatoes") with mojo sauce, huevos al estampido (fried eggs with a twist), and ropa vieja (a flavorful shredded beef dish).
But wait, there's more! Our food journey continues at the renowned guachinche Don Trino, where we'll indulge in some of the finest Canarian meats like churrascos (grilled steaks), chops, and rabbit dishes. Prepare your taste buds for an explosion of flavors that will leave you craving more!
Last but not least, we'll visit Bodegas Monje, a historic winery that traces its roots back to 1750. We'll take a tour of the vineyard and facilities, immersing ourselves in the rich winemaking traditions. To cap off this unforgettable day, we'll raise a glass of sweet wine paired with a steaming cup of coffee - the perfect grand finale!
As the tour comes to an end, we'll hop back on the bus and head back to the starting point. The total duration of this guachinche adventure is between six to ten hours, depending on the location of your accommodation.
