The best way to sightsee! - My personal driver and guide, Rene, was the perfect host - on time, knowledgable, accommodating, a great driver ( with a very comfortable car), intelligent, polite, friendly and great company! I learned so much and had a wonderful day in the Basque region of France, plus getting there and back to Bordeaux. I am from New Zealand and knew a little French, but Rene spoke such amazing English, I was able to speak in my own language. Communication was super friendly and forthcoming with Olala Bordeaux too. Thank you Rene! - Mary

It was a beautiful day of stress free travel to the beautiful Basque Basque Country! - It was wonderful to visit and learn about the Basque Country from our guide who we found to be very flexible, accommodating obliging and respectful. It was so convenient to be picked up and dropped back at our hotel by our driver/guide who was a good safe driver. We saw a lot in 10 hours due to the efficiency of our driver despite the volume of traffic and minimal parking options. Taking this one day tour was a good option to get a taste of the Basque Country.
