They work especially well for couples, families and groups of friends looking for an easygoing outing. Advance booking is needed, and availability depends on the season and the weather, so it pays to confirm the day before. When choosing, check what the offer includes, whether there is shade or shelter and whether it can be combined with a winery visit.

What to look for
- Book early and confirm whether the activity moves indoors if the weather does not cooperate.
- Bring a layer for the evening, sunscreen and a hat: the high-altitude sun is strong.
- Ask whether children or guests who do not drink alcohol can join, and what alternatives are available to them.
