It was a great tour, Javier was very nice and knowledgeable, also very accommodating, we thought we had chosen the tour including St Jean de Luz, and he talked to the company and made sure we got the complete experience, obviously for a fee (very reasonable), but I’m glad we chose this tour.

Victor is a great guide a story teller . Got educated on the Basque regions. Biarritz is a beautiful city with the splendor of the old city. Liked the restaurant we had lunch on Nov 4. Forgot the name. A wonderful day spent. We are returning to San Sebastián & Biarritz

A beautiful full day in the most stunning locations in the French Basque country - Biarritz, Bayonne and St Jean de Luc - courtesy of our Basque native guide, Anna. Eclectic: from an unhurried photoshoot along the famous surf beach at Biarritz, to the indescribable beauty of Bayonne cathedral and a delicious river cafe lunch, Anna tailored our tour to our interests. Very knowledgeable, very professional and most appreciated.

Javaier was VERY accommodating and informative. The pace was just right. When one of our tour members hurt her hand, he was very concerned about providing first aid, using ice cream bars to provide a cold compress. We would have wanted more time to shop, since Javier emphasized and brought us to the streets with a lot of interesting shops. But he didn't allocate time for it. Good thing I wasn't expecting to shop. But a couple of our tour members mentioned that the tour could have been longer. Overall, it was an enlightening tour of Biarritz and Bayonne. Without Javier's stories about the history of these 2 places, it would have meant just another place in our whole tour itinerary. And we also realized that we were able to visit France in a day.
