Roman Cartagena and Mediterranean Wine Experience

2 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English and 1 more

What makes this experience unique is the combination of Mediterranean history, local culture and wine storytelling in the heart of Cartagena.
Rather than a traditional wine tasting, this experience explores how civilizations such as the Phoenicians, Carthaginians and Romans helped shape Mediterranean wine culture through trade, travel and life around ports like ancient Carthago Nova.

The experience is designed to feel personal, welcoming and authentic — combining history, conversation, local wines and simple Mediterranean bites inspired by the region, including local ham, cheeses and olives.
It offers cruise visitors the chance to experience a different side of Spain beyond the typical tourist routes, through the atmosphere, flavours and cultural identity of Cartagena and the Mediterranean world.

What to expect

Discover Cartagena through a relaxed small-group wine experience inspired by the ancient civilizations that once shaped the Mediterranean.

Just a short walk from the cruise port, this experience combines local history, Mediterranean culture and carefully selected Spanish wines in an intimate and welcoming setting.

Your host will introduce the story of Cartagena as an important Mediterranean port influenced by the Phoenicians, Carthaginians and Romans, and explain how wine, trade and gastronomy helped shape life in the region for thousands of years.

Guests will enjoy a guided tasting of wines from Murcia and other Mediterranean regions of Spain, including local Monastrell, alongside simple Mediterranean bites inspired by the region such as local ham, cheeses and olives.

Throughout the experience, you’ll discover the traditions, landscapes and people behind the wines while enjoying views, conversation and the atmosphere of one of Spain’s most historic coastal cities.

Designed especially for cruise visitors looking for an authentic and manageable cultural experience close to the port.
