The tour was fantastic. Our guide, Arantxa, was knowleagble, personable and fun. With just 3 guests total, the tour was informative, informal and easy going. We loved the Gilda, the olives, the gambas and all the wines. The Txacoli Rose was a particular treat…never had it or heard of it before. Finishing the evening with Basque Burnt Cheesecake at La Vina with Pedro Ximenez was perfect. Many thanks to Arantxa!

This was an amazing tour! The tour company was very attentive and communicative. They sent a picture of the meeting spot and the guide to help. I ended up being the only person on my tour and was afraid they would cancel, but I had the best time with my guide! Arantxa was amazing! The food and drink were great. I would highly recommend this tour and company! A must when visions San Sebastián.
