Outstanding Day - One of the best days we've had whilst in the Basque Country. The drive through to the Rioja Region was absolutely breathtaking. Jani, our beautiful guide was so informative, teaching us everything we needed to know about the area as well as answering all our questions (we had so many!) about this beautiful country that is Basque. The wineries we went to were outstanding! Coming from Australia, a very big wine culture, we absolutely appreciated the way they produced wines here, from land to table... so interesting. Then there's the lunch. Wow! Eating traditional Basque cuisine and wine tasting with the perfect backdrop of the Sierra de Cantabria. Jani, our guide joined us for lunch and We sat back, took it all in and felt like we were old friends living the best moment. This country and its people are truly wonderful. So, if you're in doubt about doing this tour, don't be. We can assure you will have the best time. It's Worth every penny you'll pay for and the memories, Priceless! A moment in our lives we will never forget.

Amazing Rioja winery tour guide - This tour was a highlight of our trip to northern Spain. Zach is an amazing guide for anyone, but specifically for Americans as he is a native English speaker and can help us understand Spanish and Basque culture from an American perspective. He put together an amazing day for us, everything on schedule, smooth, perfectly organized. We saw two different wineries, one larger and more “corporate” and the other a family owned, smaller winery - both were excellent experiences. Zach is also a great listener and he could answer any question we threw at him. I could not recommend him more highly if you’re visiting the area.

Highlight of our trip! - This was our third trip with The Best of Basque, as we love spending time in the Basque Country. They always show us such a nice time. On this trip we went with Irene to 2 very interesting wineries and tasted some excellent red and white wines. In the second winery we also had a great picnic style lunch outside, which was the highlight for us. Thanks so much Irene, as it was another stellar experience with you.
