There’s an old Castilian saying that goes, "With bread and wine you walk the road." On this tour we’ll have the road (to Santiago), the wine (white, sparkling, delicious) and something a little better than bread: grilled fish. We’ll head to the most adorable fishing villages in Gipuzkoa as they did in the Middle Ages, traipse through them, learn their secrets and their most illustrious offspring. Yeah!

Great tour in the Basque towns of Zumaia and Getaria!

Amazing Zumaia and Getaria Tour

Exploring San Sebastián surrounding areas.
My husband and I greatly enjoyed this fun adventure, it broadened the horizon of San Sebastián, and showed the beauty of the area. We were promptly picked up at our hotel by a very courteous and knowledgeable tourist guide, Borja, to start our adventure. We stopped at places with beautiful beaches, including a beach where Scenes from Game of Thrown was filmed, these views were spectacular! The vineyard visit with wine tasting was excellent. We walked around picturesque costal towns and had lunch at the Mayflower, a beachfront restaurant and had delicious grill fish! Our return trip to San Sebastián was through the mountains again with outstanding views. We highly recommend the tour!
Response from the operator: Wow! Thank you so much for your words. It means a lot to us! Borja is a true treasure and we are very happy that you enjoyed the experience with him! All the best, Ernes

Private Txakoli Vineyards Hike: Zumaia & Getaria with Lunch: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for San Sebastian.
How much does Private Txakoli Vineyards Hike: Zumaia & Getaria with Lunch cost?
+
Prices start at $501 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 Private Txakoli Vineyards Hike: Zumaia & Getaria with Lunch take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Private Txakoli Vineyards Hike: Zumaia & Getaria with Lunch worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in San Sebastian, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Txakoli Vineyards Hike: Zumaia & Getaria with Lunch?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Txakoli Vineyards Hike: Zumaia & Getaria with Lunch suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Txakoli Vineyards Hike: Zumaia & Getaria with Lunch?
+
Around 1 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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Txakoli Vineyards Hike: Zumaia & Getaria with Lunch 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.
