Enjoy a unique gastronomic experience with our cheese tour in San Sebastian, a half-day immersion into the world of Idiazabal cheese that brings together landscape, tradition, and flavor in a single journey.
We depart from Donostia / San Sebastian to explore rural Guipuzcoa, visiting the medieval town of Segura before arriving at a family-run cheese dairy. There, you will discover step by step how this Basque icon is made, from the herding of the lacha sheep (latxa in Basque), through curdling, molding, salting, and aging, which develops its firm texture and characteristic smoky notes.
Accompanied by your local guide, you will tour the facilities, learn to recognize quality seals, and understand why Idiazabal cheese ranks among Europe’s great cheeses. The experience then continues with a cheese tasting featuring several award-winning varieties paired with local cider, sharpening your palate to identify notes of raw milk, nuts, and herbal touches.
With hotel pick-up and drop-off, private air-conditioned transportation, small groups or a private option, this cheese tour is designed for foodies and the curious who want to go beyond the display case and experience craftsmanship from farm to board.
Book your cheese tour in San Sebastian and savor the authentic cheese route of the Basque interior learning, forest and mountain landscapes, and a tasting that will help you understand why Idiazabal cheese is the pride of the region.
