Toast with the essence of the Bay of Biscay on this Txakoli tour from San Sebastián, discovering seaside vineyards in Getaria and enjoying a guided tasting with a local appetizer.
Discover the best-kept secret of the Basque coast with our Txakoli wine tour in Getaria from San Sebastián. This wine tourism experience invites you to immerse yourself in the history of a fresh, saline, and vibrant white wine that has been crafted in these lands since the 16th century. The day begins with a hotel pick-up as we head to the Getaria region, where the Atlantic breeze and the steep slopes by the sea shape the unique character of the D.O. Getariako Txakolina.
The tour includes a stop at Mount Talai Mendi to enjoy spectacular panoramic views of the region, followed by a stroll through the picturesque harbor and the Old Town of Getaria, the birthplace of legendary navigators and couturiers. The highlight of the visit takes place at an authentic "txakolindegi" (Txakoli winery), where you will learn firsthand about hillside viticulture and the entire winemaking process, from hand-harvesting to the fermentation that gives the wine its characteristic natural sparkle.
The experience culminates with a guided tasting of different Txakoli varieties, perfectly paired with a local appetizer featuring Cantabrian products. With private air-conditioned transportation and small groups of no more than 8 people, this tour guarantees close and personalized attention, making it the perfect way to understand why Txakoli is the white wine flagship of Northern Spain before returning to San Sebastián.
