Spain – A Gastronomy experience 8D/7Nbeyonders2024-01-10T10:49:45+00:00
The Basque culture! An ancient one with an ancient language “Euskera” (the oldest language in Europe) and a thousand ways, thousand colors, thousand flavors … We want you to experience as much of them as possible.
The “Euskadi” culture lives and moves apace through the artists of the region such as Oteiza and Chillida, museums like the Guggenheim, San Telmo or the Fine Arts Museum of Bilbao, etc.
Most importantly, the culture of” Euskadi “is a reflection of its landscape and gastronomic richness while protecting its traditions. This is a quick exploration of this culture while also testing the waters in the two biggest cities of Spain – Madrid and Barcelona.
