Highlighted reviews from other travelers
our guide was incredible with explaining everything in three different languages to our group with great enthusiasm and passion for the Basque region, people, history, culture and traditions. he would make a great University professor with his vast knowledge and ability to keep everyone's attention with interesting stories and details. we became very interested in Basque history and people on our tour with him. it has us wanting to learn more about it now. he guided us to the best place to eat local Basque food and to avoid touristy food stops. the value and quality of the meal was fabulous. philosophy was infused into the tour. I highly recommend it.
Very interesting program with breath-taking views! It's a must do when in Bilbao!
