Book it! - We had a great time at the cider house and Maya (apologies if I’ve spelt that wrong) was a great guide. We went on a Saturday and so the cider house was full of locals and we were the only tour group. This gave us a great opportunity to mix with the locals who were more than happy to open the barrel to pour us cider. The food and cider were both delicious. The tour was one of the highlights of our trip, highly recommend.

A fantastic day out - A really really good cider tour. We visited one cider house and had an amazing tour. It included walking through the apple trees and the processing area. We enjoyed unlimited cider and the food was really delicious. Our guide was really friendly and knowledgeable. Thank you.

Great Basque cider tour. - Thankyou Maia for a wonderful afternoon out. Very friendly, engaging and knowledgeable guide who took an interest in all 6 of us in the group which resulted in a very memorable experience! Bottomless cup of cider and good food. Really interesting tour on how the property produced cider unique to the area. One of the best tours I’ve experienced.

Great tour & guide. Lot... - Great tour & guide. Lot of food and drinks if you want. Spring season is for drinking tap from the barrels and fall is seeing the orchard full of apples.

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.

Interesting, but not our best tour - Our group of four English speakers was paired with a group of four Spanish speakers. Our tour guide was very nice and tried to translate everything to both groups, but we felt that many conversations were not translated into English. The information about the cider house was very interesting, but we were left for an hour and a half (longer than necessary) in the dining room to have lunch, which was nothing special, and the tour guide was out of the room during the entire lunch.
