    • Sagardoa Route is the tourist agency of the Association of Cidermakers of the Basque Country, their main focus is Basque culture, the territory and its inhabitants. Their specialty is rural tourism and Basque cider culture, although they offer various activities throughout their territory.

      Their starting point is the primary sector, that which works the land, apple orchards, livestock and maintains the cultural landscape of the Basque Country. Nature is their home and, therefore, they organize their routes in a sustainable way, maintaining that philosophy that makes them unique: showing what they are.

      They offer unique experiences in the Basque Country: their specialties are guided tours in Basque cider houses and activities linked to Basque culture.

      Live the “ txotx ” experience, taste natural Basque cider and discover their origins! In the company of their local guide, you will be able to discover the secrets of this ancient drink, closely linked to the Basque territory, its culture and its gastronomy. You will visit the apple orchard, the press farm, the production areas, the cellar and taste the house's natural cider as the Basques do: in the bottle and according to the “txotx” ritual. Txoootx! This is the call to taste natural cider drawn directly from the vats, while enjoying a traditional cider house menu.

    Had a great tour. The guide was very knowledgeable and sweet. One could see the pride she had for this family run enterprise. The lunch was traditional and very good. It was amazing how many people came out on a rainy day for the lunch. There were atleast 150 odd people having the lunch. The apple cider was unique tasting - dry and not sweet at all. The cute little store had all their products and very helpful staff. Definitely recommend this tour as a unique experience.

    Great tour out to Saizar in Hernani to start the 2024 season. The guide was wonderful and informative, and the cider house itself was a charm, with well prepared food and attentive staff.

    Just returned from the most magical weekend planned to perfection by Sagardoa Route. Stayed in a charming country hotel just outside San Sebastian and they organised for us a wonderful guide and an itinerary that was full of unique experiences visiting a variety of farms, ciderhouses and cheesemakers. Also a boat trip from Zumaia exploring the flysch coast and an evening of pinchos in San Sebastian. We ate three different menus in three very different Basque cider houses, mixing with the locals (there were no tourists there) and enjoying the delightful, friendly atmosphere. The food was outstanding. This is an experience for all the family by the way. The cider houses have nothing in commen with bars or places that people go to drink to excess and get crazy. Traditional cider is very low in alcohol content by the way. It is about spending time with friends and family, appreciating good food and the product of the cider house makers in their natural setting, set amongst apple orchards. Don't hesitate to contact Amaia or Olatz at Sagardoa Route to plan an unforgettable trip for you and be sure to ask for Maialen as you guide.
