  • Anywhere

EXPERIENCE:

We’ll head for the border to enjoy a visit to a Txakoli winery. Txakoli is a dry white wine from the Basque region, produced in vineyards perched high above the villages of Getaria (Spain) and Fontarrabie, has the particularity of being slightly fizzy, and is served by raising and lowering the bottle above the glass to aerate it generously.

The vineyards on the hills facing the ocean benefit from the sea spray, which gives it a unique flavor! Serve chilled with fish and seafood hors d’oeuvres, and delicious with salted anchovies and tuna in oil.

Before enjoying the charm of our beautiful Spanish neighbor, Fontarrabie, we’ll follow a scenic road facing the ocean to reach the Higer lighthouse with its panoramic view on the northern basque coast!

Hondarribia is a medieval town rich in history, with fortifications, Charles V’s castle, pedestrian streets and a fishermen’s quarter with famous Pintxos (Basque tapas) bars.

After the guided tour of the village, you’ll have some free time to enjoy the delicious and festive tapas bars.
