CLIFFS, GRILLED FISH and TXAKOLI WINE - Private Gastronomic Adventure
What is a 'planazo'? What does it mean? Simply, a 'great plan': a walk through a fishing village, another walk along its cliffs, a look at the locations of Game of Thrones, a visit to the town where the first man to go around the world was born and, finally, barbecued fish caught a few hours ago.
ItineraryThis is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Zumaia, Zumaia, Province of Guipuzcoa, Basque Country
We’ll depart San Sebastián for Zumaia, a beautiful fishing village protected from the Cantabrian Sea by some of the world’s unique cliffs. In the rocky strata of this Unesco World Geopark you can read, as if it were a newspaper, what has happened on our planet over the past million years. Our helpful guide will explain what the heck 'flysch' and 'karst' are (spoiler: these aren’t Basque words), and will lead you through a unique space: the hermitage of San Telmo overlooking the void, the beach of Itzurun (“Dragonstone,” from the series Game Of Thrones), or the path along the cliffs.
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: Getaria Fishing Port, Getaria Spain
Then it’s on to Getaria (today we won’t make it easy for you with Basque names): another adorable fishing village where Juan Sebastián Elcano, the first sailor to go around the world by boat in the 16th century, was born. Another world´reknowned Basque was born here, the couturier Cristóbal Balenciaga (“The master of us all”, according to Christian Dior). There’s a church traversed by a tunnel in what is one of the best-preserved historic districts in Gipuzkoa. Getaria hides a mouse of a certain size, whose location will be revealed to you when the time comes.
Getaria also has one of the most important ports in the Basque Country, making it the gateway to the best fish.

Stop At: Ameztoi, B Eitzaga, 10 - Apdo. 246, 20808 Getaria Spain
Next, we’ll visit a small winery that uses traditional methods and grapes called Hondarrabi Zuri and Hondarrabi Beltza. Thus you’ll learn the intricacies and power of txakoli. What is txakoli- A white wine with a a slight acidity and a lot of character, grown in vineyards by the sea, and ideal to pair with fish dishes.

Stop At: Basque Country, Basque Country
We have the wine, we have the fish, and we only need the fire to prepare the food. Did you know that Basque Country is world-famous for its charcoal-fired fish grills- You’ll see it when we go down to the port for lunch and see the smoking barbecues right out on the street. Clearly you can participate in all this, tasting our best specialties: fish caught just an hour ago and txakoli from the vineyards that surround the town. Did you say 100% local meal-
