Topa! - We took the half day wine tour of Getaria. Martine was so friendly and knowledgable about the region. He had us make several stops along the way which were full of local history.
The stop at Gañeta winery was amazing. Mai was a wonderful guide there. The food and wine tasting was even better than we had hoped.
A perfect introduction to the Basque region.

Great morning! - Víctor was very knowledgeable and went out of his way to tailor the experience to our interests- including giving us lunch recommendations for after our outing and recommendations for our next day’s activities, including parking directions. The scenic tour and the stop in Getaria added a lot to the experience. The winery tour and tasting was fun and we learned about the history of Txacholi and the winemaking. Others on Viator have commented on the lack of food on this trip, but we returned to San Sebastián at the appropriate lunch time for Spain - which is later than when one would typically eat lunch in the US. All in all, a great morning!

Fantastic experience in the Basque Country! - Absolutely wonderful communication, responsive. Was lucky enough to visit during low season so it was just my fiance and I on the tour. Imanol was knowledgeable, kind, and a great guide overall. Getaria is a must visit if you want to get your feet wet with regard to Basque culture and history. The txakoli experience was fantastic, the winery overlooks the ocean, the pours generous and the accompaniments absolutely delicious. 10/10 would recommend to a friend/family member.
