A lovely day viewing a beautiful small town as well as San Sebastian.
Our tour leader was well versed in the arts as well as history. It was a thoroughly enjoyable day. The Pintxos lunch was excellent. To top it off we saw an incredible piece of art by Chillida on the water.

Wonderful Full Day Tour Thanks to Nora
Absolutely fantastic tour thanks to Nora.
She was extremely knowledgeable and personable, not to mention a wonderful driver.
She patiently and thoroughly answered our questions and provided context for every place we visited.
We especially enjoyed her choice of eating establishment and pinxtos and wine in San Sebastian.
We strongly recommend having Nora as the tour guide/driver.

Bilbao with this great tour company
I’m not sure I chose the proper Tour, but we rode in a beautiful Mercedes van for approximately 15 people. Carlos was the driver and Paul was our Tour Director. Paul was amazing and did a fantastic job giving us just the right amount of information and time to absorb the beautiful landscapes and surroundings. Carlos did a fantastic dry job driving. We felt safe at all times. I would highly recommend this tour to anybody visiting Bilbao. Again, Paul did a fantastic job with explaining history and important sites. Carlos did a fantastic job driving. We thank the Tour company so much for a great experience in Bilbao !
