Fantastic tour of Basque countryside - Absolute gem of a tour! Jose was a fantastic guide, taking us through a variety of great locations and answering every one of our (many!) questions as we went. A lovely way to explore the Basque countryside from Bilbao - highly recommend for a great day!

The tour was beautiful, and his storytelling brought the history and Basque culture to life in such an engaging and meaningful way. He made the entire experience memorable.

Incredible service. A perfect day in Basque Country. - Our guide, Jose, arrived at our hotel and picked us up shortly before 9am. Having led tours for many years now, he knew the best times to get to each stop. He was able to answer nearly every question we had right off and if he didn’t know the answer, he took the time to find the answer for us. Over the years I have been on numerous tours and this was certainly one of the best. Since this was a private tour, we were able to set our own pace and were never rushed along and never had to wait for anyone else. The recommendation for lunch was spot on and we enjoyed it thoroughly. I hope to return to the Basque Country someday and I hope I cross paths with Jose again.

It was a fantastic day... - It was a fantastic day out, seeing places which we probably wouldn’t have accessed otherwise. Jose was a great tour guide, very friendly and very knowledgeable. Be prepared for a strenuous walk to San Juan, it’s definitely worth it!
