Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Absolutely fantastic tour with wife and Jeff as our guide. Went to Cornudella to the Gritelles Winery for a tour and tasting which was fantastic and unlike any we had previously done. Onto an olive oil tasting and then lunch both at Scaladei and excellent, finishing at the Devinssi Winery at Grattalops. All fantastic and with a company and guide who lives in the area and knows the people. Can't speak highly enough of the tour and our guide, Jeff.

We recently spent 10 days touring Spain and hands down, the highlight was the Private Wine and Oil Tour of Priorat.
The region is gorgeous and the wine and oil was amazing. Let's start that as a given.
However, the service and professionalism provided by El Brogit was over the top. From listening to what we were looking for and recommending even more, the day couldn't have gone any better.
Our driver Jeff picked us up at the train station and as he was driving us from winery to winery, he regaled us with the history of the region. He was friendly, knowledgable, and enthusiastic (and rather easy on the eyes if I do say so!)
We hit 3 wineries, had a delicious lunch with wine pairings at one, and the olive oil experience was beyond what we expected.
At the end of the day, we had to wait about and hour and 1/2 for the next train. Jeff actually dropped us off at a wine cafe and came back to take us to the train.
HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

Meritxell from El Brogit Ecotourism planned an unforgettable three-day “wine soaked” tour of the Priorat region.
With engaging and informative stops at Mas Martinet, Gratavinum, Mas Doix, Clos Mogador and Cellar Devinissi, she managed to sneak in enough time for tasty lunches in the charming villages of Falset, Poboleda, and Gratallops.
We even ran into Alvaro Palacios!
The region’s austere beauty is breathtaking. Limestone capped mountains form a giant amphitheater with hectares of irregularly patched vineyards hugging the hills, interspaced by small villages that pop from the landscape like ancient castles.
All the wineries were welcoming, exuding their individual personal charms. Did we mention the wines were fantastic!
Thanks to our friendly and knowledgeable personal guide Jeff, we were “plugged in” to the region and welcomed everywhere like long lost relatives.
We also did an eye-opening organic olive oil tasting in Scaladei. Our host spoke not a word of English but communicated her passion for olive oil with her eyes and lovely demeanor.
Thank you, Meritxell, and Jeff, for providing us so many lasting memories. We could not have asked for anything more.

An amazing tour with am amazing tour guide. Meritxell from El Brogit went out of her way to pick us up in a different town because we missed our train. She is very knolewgable on the the Priorat región where she grew up. She share a lot of information including history and wine making. We requested one winery, she chose the other one. Both were a memorable, private and íntimamente experience! We could ask many questions and enjoyed every wine we tasted. An olive oil tour and tasting was also included. Lunch of traditional Catalunya cuisine was another treat from her. We strongly recommend Meritxell for a wine tasting tour in Priorat !!!

Hello Juan,
Thanks for sharing your experience! It was not easy to set up a program on such a short notice, but at least you could do a "tasting of the Priorat wine region".
We will be happy to welcome you back!

Delightful, authentic, personalized, genuine… the words don’t come close to illustrating our time with Meritxell in the Priorat this past summer!
She provided us with a lovely, curated visit of her home region where we visited several wineries and oil producer, each reflective of the history and craft specific to Priorat. I appreciated the genuine visibility that Meritxell gave us of daily life in this part of Catalunya, which is exactly what we wanted. She was extremely flexible and catered to our every need making this truly an experience for us, including humoring me in practicing Calatan!
This sort of view into the every day life of a community is usually impossible to obtain unless you live in the area. One million percent will see Meritxell again on our next visit to Catalunya!!

Meritxell provided us with a wonderful weekend with visits to several Priorat wineries as well as life in the countryside. She was so easy to plan with and went the extra mile to arrange visits for us in the wineries that we especially wanted to experience. She took care of all the details and was so easy to be with. We really enjoyed getting to know her over long lunches and time in the car and hearing about her life in the region and especially about her holiday traditions. It was like being with an old friend!

Meritxell Omella from El Brogit made our hike and wine tasting in Priorat a unique experience. From the planning of the trip to the execution.
We were four people in the group, and Meritxell helped us to the most beautiful routes and places to visit and accompanied us as a guide on the trip. We learned a lot about the wines, the culture, the landscape and the people of Priorat from the insight Meritxell gave us and the discussions we had along the way.
Meritxell and El Brogit is highly recommended.
Sincerely
Søren

Meritxell (the owner of El Brogit) was fantastic and we had the most amazing, authentic Priorat experience. It is usually impossible to organise wine tours and tastings at short notice, but Meritxell worked her magic and managed to plan and book the perfect day for us including tours and tastings at two very special wineries (Cellar D’Scaladei and Cellar Cal Pla), an olive oil tasting that our two young children also loved, a great lunch, drives through amazing scenery and fascinating commentary throughout the day on everything from all things wine, to Catalan history and politics, to local geology and everything in between! Thank you Meritxell for creating the perfect Priorat experience for our family!

I can’t say enough wonderful things about this tour. We had a great time. My perspective… this is not a typical bus trip. I found this trip to be much more immersive. Imagine a new friend picking you up in their car and taking you to meet some of their best friends and favorite neighbors. Meritxell was our host and graciously translated for us when necessary. Loved the wines we tasted and the people we met. The people of Priorat are just very genuine. I would and will recommend El Brogit and would do this trip again in a heartbeat.

From start to finish this was an excellent tour! Our tour guide provided such a wonderful and descriptive background of the region and provided us with spectacular look out points throughout the day as we journeyed across the region. We had two distinct and different tastings and both were incredible. The olive oil tasting had a snag but our tour guide fixed it right up and made up for it! This was such a wonderful experience and such a great opportunity to learn and discover a unique wine region in Spain.
