Originally from France, Sophie spent many years working in the tourism sector in the Netherlands, before starting the Niso project as an organizer . Over the years, as her knowledge of wine increased and she began hosting the wine tours, she realized that the combination of great wine, travel, meeting new people and creating unforgettable experiences was more of a vocation than a job. Niso is her passion and she looks forward to sharing it with you!
Here is a few lovely things that her clients have said, if you need to read more please check trip advisor:
We loved every minute
We spent a long weekend in Sitges and our guide for the weekend was lovely Sophie. The service was amazing from the minute we arrived at the airport until we left.
A day in the Priorat with Sophie
Norman Bouton San Francisco
Sophie picked us up at our hotel in Barcelona at 8:30 am for a drive to a wine region I had been wanting to visit for a very long time. This trip was way beyond anything I could have hoped for. The countryside is spectacular and the two wineries we visited were each very different from one another as were the personalities and wines of each. Sophie was the glue that stuck it all together. This was not at “tire-kicker” wine tour. She was wonderful, knowledgeable, passionate, enthusiastic, personable and a great travel companion. I can only believer that Sophie will do a fantastic job for anyone, no matter what the subject of the tour.
Ribera del Duero – Customized wine tour
Denisse Armenti Houston
Sophie is way beyond a tourist guide. She was able to make a private tour for 7 people, from different Countries and expectations. Excellent options, very well organized. Sophie is very professional, but besides that you can tell how much she loves what she does. I will recommend without a doubt working with her in the future.
Day Tour of Priorat Wine Region
Karen Rae Hortwitz
Our day tour of the Priorat Wine Region with Sophie from Niso Wine Tours was simply incredible! Sophie picked us up from the front door of the apartment we were renting in Sitges and drove us through the rocky hills and lush valleys of the region to reach Gratallops. Other than wearing comfortable clothes and shoes for walking, we did not need to bring or pack anything else! Sophie had water and snacks for the one hour ride.
Wonderful Tour of the Rioja region with Sophie !
