Traveler Tips
- "Give more time in Castilla, the parking is far, and only the walking distance to the Main Street you have to go back to the bus!!!" See review
- "Make sure you grab food and water at the stop in Greve as there are only light snacks at the wineries." See review
- "Do note that it is about 6.5 hours long, and just about half of that is actually spent driving." See review
