5.00We had a clear day, which always helps, but the tour was very good, all the stops are beautiful and with enough time to give you an idea of the site. The guide, Haman, very nice, his explanations were very entertaining and interesting, it was very nice to talk to him. The bus ride very comfortable, driver Santi was super punctual. I recommend sitting on the right side.
Great Tour

5.00This tour was one of the highlights of our 17 day trip to Spain! The Basque country is beautiful! Everything we saw was just amazing! We particularly liked San Sebastion; awesome in every way! Great food there too! The fortified city of Hondarribia is super-interesting and Gitaria is very picturesque.
