In the glass · AUDIO TOURS
The 3 best audio tours you can book today, with what each pours, how long it runs and who it suits. Number one is top for a reason; start there.
At Koutsogiannopoulos Wine Museum near Vothonas, you follow an audio guide through a 300-meter cave eight meters underground, then taste four local wines with a sommelier. Plan 1 to 2 hours. The museum is self-guided, cool, informative, and close to Santorini Airport.
“The museum was really nice, wine tasting very good.”
Ride through Old Riga for 30 minutes in a heated electric bus with an English audio guide, a welcome drink, and blankets in cold weather. Your English-speaking driver can pause for photos. The route covers the Old Town’s main sights and returns to Torņa Street 4 II A.
“Tour path itself (via city center) was good and we seen interesting places and buildings. However, the information we got about the places was mostly basic and obvious, e.g. we seen the castle and got information that president lives there, but no information about who is the president, what political system they have, what taxes they pay, how school system works or some curiosities or interesting non comonly known local stories. Compering to tours in other cities, this was below average. But considering the price, if you do not have too high expectations, could be ok.”
Spend the day exploring Nessebar’s ancient peninsula at your own pace with a map and audio guide in five languages. Choose from 15 stops, pause for photos, and finish at a winery with a tasting. Bring headphones, a charged phone, and internet access.
“The audio guide was good and informative but it was a struggle to use. I had to follow our route on google maps and then switch to the narrative in a different tab-sometimes we had to reload the maps so it was a bit of a mess about”
Cellar doors, tasting rooms and the long lunches in between.
