We were a party of 9 people on Oceania's Sirena cruise ship that booked a private shore excursion to Villena and Winery from the port of Alicante. Jordi was an excellent tour guide who catered to our group's interests, he was very knowledgeable and his English was perfect! We started the drive through busy Alicante and passed some castles on the way to Villena. When we arrived at the winery, we tasted several wines, olive oils and Iberian hams, which were all delicious! Then we toured the winery's chapel, cellars and production areas. Our group thoroughly enjoyed this private tour and practically had the winery to ourselves! We highly recommend Quality Guided Tours -- they were great!!!
