At Gaintza we take great pride in receiving guests. During our guided tours, the visitor will learn about the history and tradition of local txakolina wines. We start the visit by observing how this tradition has formed the actual landscape, then our visitors will be able to visit the winery, or "bodega". The visit finishes with a wine tasting session where our visitors can taste and learn about the 3 wines we produce at Gaintza, the traditional txakolina, our rosé and our special Aitako wine. The wines are always combined with local products to taste. The visit costs 16 euros per person. Please write to us or call us to make a direct reservation.
We arranged a tour at the last minute through our hotel which was a short but very uphill walk away. The tour consisted of an explanation of the growing process of the grapes then an indoor tour of the processing of the grapes to the bottling plant and then finally a fabulous tasting with some lovely anchovies ,bread and olives and three different varieties of txakoli . The tour was made very special as there was only one other couple with us which meant it was very personal and also the guide was extremely knowledgeable and also answered all our questions.

A modern iron sculpture by Eduardo Chillida embedded in the rocks at the water's edge.
A romantic place where the waves of the sea, iron, stone, wind and sculpture originality come together. A nice walk by the sea.

Highly recommend this if visiting the San Sebastian area. It's a nice walk to the top with superb views across both sides of San Sebastian. Overall walk takes maybe an hour from top to bottom at a leisurely pace. Take some water if the weather is warm as it can be tough is some parts

La Concha Beach in San Sebastian, Spain is the best urban beach in Europe. Elegant, urban, cosmopolitan, white sand, crystal clear waters and lush hillsides makes La Concha the best urban beach in Europe and one of the most beautiful in the world. By the way San Sebastian is considered the most beautiful city in the world alongside Seville.

Wander the old town and lose yourself amongst the narrow streets, with so many restaurants/bars to stop at for refreshment and so many sites to see and explore.

We had no idea this lovely place was here and just lucked upon it when looking for something to do in Azpeitia. The towered house is the birthplace of Saint Ignacio de Loyola in 1491 and the adjacent sanctuary, a round basilica, very impressive was built over a century later.

The architecture is something to marvel at. Inside, the church was very solemn and quiet, good for prayer and reflection. Outside, the view is also great!

This place is amazing. There is so much to see here, with beautifully restored railway carriages, engines, buses and trams, fascinating displays of machine tools, uniforms and station clocks. You get an idea of how much time and care has been put into the restorations when you see the older engines and carriages out on the line awaiting their own TCL. We were keen to try the ride on the steam train, but when we went on November 27th we learned that the last date for a train ride was November 3rd. However, the friendly and very helpful staff told us that next day there was to be a large organised visit and a train journey had been arranged for that group, and if we wished to come back then, we could tag along. So we went back on the 28th and had an absolutely brilliant day. As well as the incredible steam train ride, we also had a ride on an old tram and were given a demonstration of the machine tools in action. It was a truly memorable experience and I would not have missed it for the world. And the price is unbelievable - 6€ each! ( without the train ride it would have only been 3€). Don't miss it!

We were walking into the town, intent to make it to the harbor for lunch at a small seaside restaurant to be found upon arrival. Instead We found a wedding had just ended in this church, with everyone standing outside. We walked in and the priest was just cleaning up and locking the doors. It gave us a few minutes inside. The floor was incredibly far from horizontal. Possibly 18 inches from front to rear. This just did not happen, it was built in this manner. Beautiful interior for this small village church.
