Cristina_P, Mar 2025

The itinerary was very nice and well planned. We had the opportunity to visit different spots qnd enjoy the basque countryside. The guide and driver were amazing!

Wonderful trip!

Venkat_I, Oct 2024

Jose was a very friendly and knowledgeable guide. San Juan de Gaztelugatxe was awesome. The walking tour of San Sebastián was an enjoyable learning experience. The pintxos were yummy!

A very worthwhile day out

Sutherland_J, Oct 2024

It was a pleasure to meet Aman(?). He was a very pleasant young man as well as a fantastic guide on this day. I take my hat off to him moving between speaking Spanish to English back to Spanish, when explaining a range of topics in great detail. I recommend this tour for a very worthwhile day out. San Sebastián is a glorious place to visit.

Day tour

Kathryn_B, Sept 2024

The tiny island of San Juan is such a drawcard. Aman the guide who travelled with us talked far too much. I had a headache by the time we arrived in San Sebastian. The walking tour of San Sebastian with Jose was very informative and I would have liked to hear more of its history. Free time was rather long.
