I am a Basque native, in love with my country, culture and gastronomy. And after be working with travelers 7 years, in 2015 I started offering artisan, unique and authentic experiences in my own. Aiming to offer the possibility to enjoy feeling and living, the true essence of the Basque Country, out of the commercial and away from the tourist masses. And this is the best experience I offer ever about local artisanal producers of the country side and probably the most pure that is offered in the city. If you don’t believe me, came on to collect the best mountain products, visiting artisan producers and cooking lunch in my “gastronomic society”. And after completing the experience, you are not satisfied. I will return you, the amount paid for it * The gastronomic society : Is where you can experience the region’s gastronomy from first hand. The love of food and social dining is what brings together family groups and friends to cook top quality ingredients with loving care.

A lovely day in the heart of País Vasco
¡Una pasada! We highly recommend.

Best day of our son’s life!
We booked a private tour for our family and it was the highlight of our trip to San Sebastián! We brought our 15 month old son and we’ve been joking that it was definitely the best day of his life. Julan brought us to a beautiful farm where he played with cows and sheep and we had the most delicious fresh eggs and sausage. Xabier and his family who own the farm (and the local carniceria we visited after) went above and beyond for us. Seeing the gastronomic club and having supper there was incredible. We feel so grateful to Julen and his community for welcoming us into their beautiful world for the day! This will be the highlight of your experience in the Basque Country without a doubt.

A Unique Experience
We joined Julen as a group of 8 friends to celebrate a birthday. This is now the third time we’ve booked through him and he never fails to deliver a great experience. His passion for the Basque Country and food is second to none. Highly recommend.
Response from the operator: Yeah Tareq ! Thank you so much for taking the time to write this lovely review. Hugs from the Basque Country !

Good food, good people, good mountains
Our day with Julien was the highlight of our trip to Spain. Julien’s love for the Basque Country, good food, and meaningful experiences was contagious. Strongly recommend this experience to soak up this beautiful region of Spain
Response from the operator: Hey couple ! Thank you so much for writing this lovely review and for being such a good person. I had a great time with you, and I hope to see you again someday. Hugs and lots of love from the Basque Country !

Amazing family day in the beautiful Basque countryside
We had an amazing family daytrip with Julen, meeting wonderful people, exploring beautiful places, and preparing (and eating!) incredible food. Our group had children, seniors, and adults of different ages, and everyone had a great time and made some beautiful family memories in an idyllic setting. We enjoyed visiting a small farm in the mountains, learning about their crops, meeting their animals, and picking some of the season's first tomatoes and blackberries for our breakfast. Later, we visited a small town to pick up additional ingredients, and then Julen took us to a private gastronomic society club, where we learned to prepare traditional Basque dishes as a family. It was an amazing meal in an absolutely beautiful and relaxing setting. Julen was very thoughtful with the children in our group, bringing along sports equipment and Basque games for them to try, which they loved! He also took wonderful care of the grandparents in our group, making sure they had refreshments and shady places to rest when they needed it. Traveling around the gorgeous Basque countryside with Julen felt like being shown around by a friend, and his passion for the culture and gastronomy of his region made the day unlike any other. It was an experience we'll never forget!
Response from the operator: Hey Laura ! So glad to know that you had a great time with me, it was the same for me too. You are great and sweet people, so it was a pleasure to work with you. Thank you for taking time to write this nice review. Huge hug, health and much love from Basque country !

Discover the artisan producers of the mountain: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for San Sebastian.
How much does Discover the artisan producers of the mountain cost?
+
Prices start at $843 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in San Sebastian usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Discover the artisan producers of the mountain take?
+
Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in San Sebastian is not rushed.
Is Discover the artisan producers of the mountain worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 13 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable family friendly in San Sebastian, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Discover the artisan producers of the mountain?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Discover the artisan producers of the mountain suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Discover the artisan producers of the mountain?
+
Around 5 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in San Sebastian can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in San Sebastian and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Discover the artisan producers of the mountain start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central San Sebastian within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in San Sebastian?
+
On Outty we rank every San Sebastian experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Small-Group Electric Bike Tour in San Sebastián, San Sebastian E-bike trour: Basque History and Cultural., San Sebastian Premium Pintxo Food, Wine & Market Foodie Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit San Sebastian?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in San Sebastian?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Discover the artisan producers of the mountain?
+
Included: Local cooking lover (private cheff); Private transportation; Brunch; Accident and civil liability insurance; and Lunch. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Discover the artisan producers of the mountain?
+
