Description
Join us for a unique txakoli wine experience, exploring the fresh, vibrant Basque wine made from Hondarrabi Zuri grapes. Start in Bakio at the Txakoli Museum to learn about its history, Atlantic climate, and winemaking techniques. Visit a txakolindegi (winery) to see coastal viticulture, harvest, pressing, fermentation, and maturation that give txakoli its citrusy acidity and saline edge. Enjoy a guided tasting with a Cantabrian appetizer, learn the high pour tradition, serving tips, and why txakoli pairs perfectly with fish and seafood. With private transport, hotel pick-up and drop-off, museum and winery access, and personalized guidance, this tour immerses you in Basque wine culture, history, and flavor for a full day of scenery and oenological pleasure.

Great day tour!
It was an excellent experience in spite of the very cold and rainy weather. I would highly recommend especially if you are into wines and would like to see the country side. 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!

Fantastic wine tour!
My 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.

Brilliant wine tour with a brilliant tour guide
Our 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 Txacoli wine tour experience
Thanks Jose for the wonderful experience. Great tour to the Txacoli museum and the visit to the Gorka Izagirre cellar. Also the service received in both places was amazing.
