Our tour guide Asier and guide in the museum Mira were very attentive, informative and helpful. We visited a very nice winery and loved Txakoli wine. Overall it was a great tour!

5.00My partner and I recently went on a Txakoli wine tour from Bilbao, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. If you love wine, beautiful scenery, and learning about local culture, this tour is a must-do! The wine tastings were generous and diverse, showcasing the range of flavors and styles within the Txakoli category. We especially enjoyed the young, fresh Txakoli, which was perfect for a warm summer day. The accompanying snacks were delicious and highlighted the region's culinary traditions.

5.00Our tour guide Jose was absolutely brilliant. Such a personal and engaging tour from start to finish. His love for describing the region and it’s surroundings was matched by the passion of the storytelling and craft on show at the museum and vineyard we were fortunate to visit. The wine both at the museum and vineyard was really nice. Highly recommended!
Great Experience
