Highlights
This experience goes beyond a typical coastal tour by combining landscapes, wine culture, and local cuisine in a small, relaxed group. Instead of simply visiting towns, we explore the Basque Coast through the traditions that shape everyday life here. You’ll walk along the spectacular Flysch cliffs of Zumaia, one of Europe’s most unique geological landscapes, then head into the coastal vineyards above Getaria to learn how Txakoli wine is grown in this maritime climate. A short walk among the vines offers sweeping views of the Atlantic and insight into local wine traditions. The day continues with a guided visit of the fishing village of Getaria before finishing with one of the Basque coast’s most iconic meals: fresh fish grilled over charcoal, paired with a tasting of different styles of local Txakoli wine. With a maximum of 7 guests, the experience remains personal, relaxed, and deeply connected to the region.

About San Sebastián
San Sebastián, or Donostia, is a Basque seaside city around a shell-shaped bay, with a golden beach, a hilltop fort and a pintxo scene known across Spain.
San Sebastián curves around La Concha Bay, a near-perfect shell-shaped inlet with a white-railed promenade and a sheltered city beach. Monte Urgull guards the east end with an old fort, and Monte Igueldo, at the west end, has a funicular and a viewpoint. The Parte Vieja, the old town, was rebuilt after the fire of 1813 and is packed with bars and a baroque basilica.
