We had a great time at each of the three destinations and learned so much in a such a short timeframe! The hike at Gaztelugatxe was our favorite and is definitely doable, but still intense! Be sure to bring good shoes, water, and go to the bathroom before the hike down!

Bernadette_S

It was an amazing experience. I enjoyed the whole tour. Our tour guide Pacu was a pleasure, he didn't miss a bit in explaining the significance of each place we visit and telling us its history. Would recommend this tour.

Lynn_R

This tour was amazing. Our bilingual guide was kind patient and helpful. The hike to San Juan de Gaztelugatxte was difficult but doable. It’s not the 240 steps but the climb back up to the bus that will hurt. But definitely worth it. Hour guide walked us through the towns of Bermro and Gernika as well. Great day!

Yosuke_T

Alexandre_M

So glad I took this tour to see so many things in the limites time I had. The tour was shorter than I expected. I would have preferred to see at least one museum in one of the places we visited for a deeper cultural understanding.

Martina_S

Very fun and interesting guided tour at the same time. Pascu knows how to tell stories and answers happily all different questions that one could come up with. I enjoyed every part of the trip 😊 Very nice group as well! Time flew! Nice selection of places and on top an introduction to various aspects of Basque culture and language. Would definitely recommend!

Christian_B

House of Targaryen was nice to see. It was even a little sunny. Not much to see in Bermeo. Guernica was interesting but it would have needed more time to visit. I booked an English tour but alll the other people spoke Spanish. So the guide did spent 70% explaining in Spanish and just some basics in English, which was disappointing.

Michal_G

very well organized. Excellent tour guide. The weather was poor but it can always happen. I was satisfied and cane recommend that tour.
