Group holiday exploring Basque traditions and cider houses

Are you a food lover who enjoys fine dining and local gourmet produce? Then this ‘Traditions and Cider Houses’ holiday is just the thing for you! Through guided tours, walks and tastings, you’ll have the chance to meet numerous producers, artisans and winegrowers. You’re sure to be charmed by their authenticity and the high quality of their produce. The Basque cider houses, typical of the region, welcome you in a cheerful atmosphere around large tables where you can enjoy a rib of beef accompanied by traditional Basque cider and learn about the txotx (a small, pointed piece of wood used to seal the barrel).

The Basque Country boasts a unique way of life, with deeply rooted traditions that are still very much alive, underpinned by exceptional craftsmanship and distinctive local produce (Basque charcuterie, Bayonne ham, seafood, cheeses, Espelette pepper, wines from Irouléguy and Jurançon, cider, cakes, chocolate, macarons … as well as Basque linen, espadrilles, knives, crockery, etc.).
