  • Beautiful views and Hike

    Overall, a great experience. The hike down was very nice and calm. The hike up was about 30 minutes and steep uphill. Keep that in mind when booking the trip. Very Panoramic views and absolutely gorgeous hike. The tour guide Eduardo did a great job explaining things in English and Spanish. I’d recommend taking snacks or food with you since most of the stops will be for photos and history. Water and drinks are typically available for purchase at most stopping areas. I’d definitely do this trip again.

    Large groups, big comfortable bus takes you to places you might not go to. Lots of walking up and down trails and stairs to beautiful church on top of an island.

    Lots of steep inclines and lots of steps in Gaztelugatxe but worth the views. It was interesting to see the other two towns, especially Gernika with the Picasso piece. Jose our guide was quite interesting and informative. He had lots of stories about the Basque culture and he was very funny. You could tell he really enjoyed his job which made it even more enjoyable for us.

  • Good experience
