Haro Tourist Office

The Haro Tourist Office is at Plaza de la Paz, 1, the town's main square, on the ground floor of a three-storey ashlar building raised over the old medieval wall, with a 15th-century Mudéjar gallery. It is the natural starting point for getting to know Haro: the bar streets of the Herradura begin here, and a short walk leads down to the Barrio de la Estación, where the century-old wineries are.

Opening hours

The office has two timetables a year.

• Winter, 1 November to 31 May: Tuesday to Sunday, 10:00 to 14:00; on Fridays and Saturdays it also opens in the afternoon, 16:00 to 19:00. It closes on Mondays unless it is a public holiday, in which case it opens from 10:00 to 14:00.
• Summer, 1 June to 31 October, and also at Easter, All Saints and the Constitution Day bridge: Tuesday to Saturday, 10:00 to 14:00 and 16:00 to 19:00; Mondays and Sundays, 10:00 to 14:00.

It closes on 25 December and on 1 and 6 January. You can contact it by phone on +34 941 303 580, by WhatsApp on +34 662 025 849 and by email at [email protected].

What they can sort out for you

The staff advise on accommodation, restaurants, excursions and winery visits, and hand out leaflets, maps and catalogues of the town's main sights. On its website you can download a PDF tourist map of Haro and its surroundings. It is especially useful for the wineries: many, such as Muga or La Rioja Alta, require booking and have tours at fixed times, and the office will help you fit two visits into the same day without taking the car between them.

Guided tours of the old town

The office organises guided tours of the old town: the Herradura, the palaces and the churches. They are held in Spanish and English, with advance booking compulsory at the office itself and a minimum number of people for the group to go ahead. Times and price are not published on the website: ask when you book. If you prefer to go on your own, the Haro Turismo website also has a self-guided tour and the page on the old town serves as a guide.

When to drop in

If you go to Haro on a winter weekend, come in the morning: the afternoon is only open on Friday and Saturday. In June, ask about the Wine Battle on 29 June, which fills the town, and, if you enjoy walks, about the route to the Conchas de Haro and the Riscos de Bilibio. If you arrive by bus from Vitoria, see the page on the Vitoria to Haro bus for return times.
