What to expect
Urnieta
After pickup in San Sebastian, we will drive into the Basque Countryside, surrounded by beautiful ever-green mountains, to visit an Idiazabal Designation of Origin Cheese Farm and learn about the elaboration process of our most beloved cheese: the Idiazabal Cheese. You will get to learn the secrets behind the techniques of cheese-making directly from the shepherd and later enjoy a tasting of some of the products of the farm in a very intimate and familiar setting.
Astigarraga
After the Idiazabal cheese farm visit, we will head to one of the more than 30 Basque Cider Houses spread throughout Astigarraga and Hernani (without a doubt the two towns with the greatest cider tradition in the entire Basque Country) to enjoy a typical cider house lunch. By the hand of a local, you will learn all the secrets and history behind Basque Cider and enjoy the typical Basque cider house lunch consisting of: cod Omelet, fried cod with green peppers and onions, “Txuleta” – bone-in rib-eye steak, Idiazabal cheese with quince and walnuts, and self-serve cider.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
