Any tips for visiting Naples?
Hi everyone! I’m heading to Naples soon and I'm looking for recommendations on restaurants, bars, and must-see spots in the city. Whether it’s authentic Neapolitan cuisine, cozy cocktail bars, or unique local attractions. Any hidden gems or tips for making the most of my time in Naples?

Any places in Valencia to taste local wines?
I will soon spend a few days in Valencia and am curious to try local wines. I won't have the time to travel and visit wineries but was wondering if anybody could recommend any bars or restaurants in Valencia that serve wines from Alto Turia (the high altitude zone) and the Merseguera grape. I know this is very niche and so I much appreciate any recommendations!

Thank you @Shane Jones ! I will definitely check these out 🍷 I never say no to a glass of great Sherry or bubbles and am always curious about foodie hotspots :) Thank you for the tips! It's really strange and somehow typical for some Spanish and Italian wine regions that you cannot find any local wines. I don't know if it's a lack of trust in the local product, commercial considerations or consumer preferences or else... but imagine, you're travelling through Germany and there's not a single glass of Riesling to try! I won't give up though and ask around as I'd really like to try these wines. I'll report back if I find any places that offer them😊

Hello Janan,
You can approach your search in two ways:
Make a shortlist of wineries where you'd like to volunteer and contact them directly (you may be lucky to be accepted at your favourite one)
Contact these two institutions and ask if they know of any wineries that are looking for or open to accepting volunteers and they should be able to connect you with them. - The German Wine Institute (Deutsches Weininstitut, DWI) - the central marketing and communication body for Germany's 13 wine regions, promoting their quality and sales worldwide through public relations, education, events, and market research. https://www.winesofgermany.com/ - The Verband Deutscher Prädikatsweingüter (VDP) - an association of around 200 of Germany's top wine estates dedicated to promoting superior quality wine production through strict standards on vineyard management, grape growing, and winemaking that exceed German wine law requirements, with a classification system emphasizing terroir and site-specific excellence across Germany's main wine regions. https://www.vdp.de/en/
Best of luck in your search!
Share any tips you may get along the way.
