Lovely relaxed and interesting tour - This was an excellent trip with Alby giving us a lot of inside information on the area and about Getaria. Interesting tour at the winery packed full of information..and tasting of 3 wines with lots of nibbles.. loved it. Very relaxed tour. Highly recommend if you want to get a flavour of the area.

A brilliant tasting experience - This was an excellent way to spend a few hours, learning about the local culture and the skill and love that goes into making wine. Great tour guide, Imanol, who showed us the beautiful town of Getaria, then a wonderful hour or so at the winery.

A price worthy wine tour - We had a wonderful experience on the Txakoli tour! Before the tour our guide Iker brought us to a picturesque fishing village and shared his knowledge about the history of the village, which was great. The winery tour was an excellent opportunity to learn about the Txakoli wine and how it is made from scratch. Iker made the whole trip memorable, as he was kind and also gave us great restaurant recommendations and attractions to visit during our stay in San Sebastian.

Nice way to see the countryside beyond San Sebastian - Iker was a great driver and host for us. Communication was easy and everything happened on-time. The countryside is beautiful and we're glad to have gotten to see it. We learned a lot about the winemaking process and got to taste two glasses of txakoli, plus fresh snacks.

A highlight of our Basque Country trip - My girlfriend and I loved this tour. We learned a lot about Getaria, sampled some tasty wines, and enjoyed learning about the Basque Country. Our guide, Imanoel (very sorry if I misspelled his name), was extremely knowledgeable and friendly, and he made the tour an exceptional experience. He even hooked us up with a recommendation for a delicious local restaurant after the tour ended. One of the highlights of our trip.

Topa! - We took the half day wine tour of Getaria. Martine was so friendly and knowledgable about the region. He had us make several stops along the way which were full of local history.
The stop at Gañeta winery was amazing. Mai was a wonderful guide there. The food and wine tasting was even better than we had hoped.
A perfect introduction to the Basque region.
