The Caravan and Motorhome Club has announced the expansion of its overseas travel portfolio with the launch of an all-new escorted tour for autumn 2026: Wines of Rioja. Following the success of previous wine-themed tours, this immersive 17-day holiday offers members a seamless, expert-led journey into the beating heart of Spain’s most celebrated wine region.

Starting on 28 September 2026, the caravan and motorhome tour is perfectly timed to capture the vibrant autumn vineyard landscapes and the electric energy of the region's traditional harvest season.

A Story of Tradition: From Historic Cellars to Wine Culture

The tour is designed to weave a rich narrative of Northern Spain's heritage, taking holidaymakers beyond the glass to explore the deep-rooted culture behind the vines. Operating from a peaceful and centrally located base at Camping De Haro - situated right in the designated 'Capital of Rioja' - the itinerary balances structured, authentic excursions with the freedom of the touring lifestyle.

Key highlights of the 16-night itinerary include:

  • Deep-Dive Bodega Experiences: Visits to multiple historic wine cellars to learn about traditional vines, centuries-old production secrets, and the tasting of diverse regional varieties.
  • The Vivanco Museum of Wine Culture: An immersive exploration into one of the world's premier wine museums, detailing the global history and artistic legacy of winemaking.
  • Cultural and Gastronomic Treasures: A guided walking tour of the architectural marvels of Bilbao, a trip to the unique, ancient Añana Salt Valley, and traditional pintxos lunches paired perfectly with regional cheeses and local vintages.

Expertly Hosted and Fully Supported

The Wines of Rioja tour provides the ultimate peace of mind for overseas holidaymakers. The package includes 16 nights of pitch fees at Camping De Haro (complete with electric hook-up), transport for all scheduled excursions, and dedicated Club Tour Hosts who accompany the group throughout the journey to manage the itinerary and support members on the ground.

Priced at £1,499 per person (based on two people travelling together), the tour offers an exceptional, value-driven gateway to European touring. Members simply arrange their preferred ferry crossings and holiday insurance independently, allowing for total flexibility on their travel routes to and from Northern Spain.

With limited places available to maintain an intimate group dynamic, holidaymakers are encouraged to view the full itinerary and secure their space via the official booking page at camc.com/winesofrioja  .
