Fun and tasty - The tour is run by the Basque cider producers’ association. The guide was knowledgeable, energetic and fun. The cider house tour was very interesting. The traditional food they served was delicious. COD omelette, chorizo pincho, T-bone steak rare, and all the different ciders one can drink. What is not to like?

Wonderful experience! - Our guide Maya made the experience wonderful! So knowledgeable about the history, area, culture and people. The food was top notch and plentiful and the cider delicious. It was a small group and accommodated both English and Spanish speakers. So worth the cost!

Great experience - We learnt about the history of cider making and the production. Our guide Myella was great and very easygoing. We are not big cider drinkers back home but this was different and very yummy. Over a traditional lunch we had time to chat with others from the bus. It was lovely.

12 for San Sebastian wow 👌 - Fantastic, pristine beaches and the old town packed with Tapas wine 🍷 and beers. All this watched over by their version of Christ the redeemer from the mountain top, good walk up by the way. We loved it and would definitely go again.

A new tasting experience - Our tour guide Maialen was prompt, friendly and knowledgeable. A true lover of the local cider industry, she explained not only the process of making the cider but also the importance of cider making in the Basque family culture. The luncheon was delicious and plentiful, including all the cider you wished to drink. This small group tour was a great value and highly recommended!

A wonderful outing from Donostia/San Sebastián - Our driver and guide Maddalen, a local who speaks excellent English, was knowledgeable about all things to do with the Basque cider process and lots of fun. Petritegi is one of the area’s largest cider houses and serves a delicious traditional lunch. It was a blast to refill our glasses by returning to the cellar as often as we wished where we stood a couple of feet from one of the barrels to catch the cider as it shot out of a pencil-sized hole.

Great food and drink! - I hope you are ready to eat a lot of food and enjoy some cider because this is excellent. You will pour your own cider and eat a lot of food. The guides know a lot and are very helpful on the grounds and getting you to and from the cidery.
