Nice places, bad bodega - Nice spots, clean bus, friendly tour guide. The bodega was disappointing: it was not possible to taste and compare different wines, we got just one glas. That was it.

Terrific Day - Great mix of experiences from Gernika to the coastal towns to the hike to the island church! The hike is a challenge but well worth it. Aman was a terrific guide, providing good background on the various sites we saw, especially in Gernika, including an explanation of what we were looking at. He was also very accurate in his cautions on the hike to the church (looooong name). He was also always helpful with questions. The driver (Sergio) was also terrific, taking that big bus down roads I’d have found challenging in a car. I do regret that I wasn’t able to tip them, and if there is a way to do that, please contact me.

Recommended - Good excursion, you're not on the bus much. Sufficient mix accompanied and free. Pedro was a very good guide. Hike is hard and not to be underestimated!

it is all about Gaztelugatxe - purpose of the tour is only about Gaztelugatxe, which is indeed stunning, and worth this trip, which price is also reasonable. They just add the other stops to make up for the 9 hours, and make a lunch stop. Plus the last stop at Bodega Berroja for Txakoli tasting is also a treat. The guide is really experienced in managing such a large group of over 50 people. Overall he is very informative, but seems he explains much longer in Spanish than English.
