I did the 4 day tour - first rate stuff. Zach and Irene were tremendous and super- friendly. I was picked up at my hotel daily and driven round the Basque country in great style. Whilst I was expecting Guernica/Gernika to be special, ( which it was) there were a few other gems which I wouldn't have found on my own, the fishing town of Bermeo the salt mine and the sheep farm to name but 3 unexpected high-lights. They gave good recommendations on restaurants, and the few I tried did not disappoint. Highly recommended.

The explanations provided during all the tour were accurate and very extensive but at the same time funny. The tour guide was fantastic. He was a local young guy full of energy and good vibes. I would definitely recommend this tour if you are visiting San Sebastian.

I cannot recommend this day trip highly enough. Ander provided the most amazing day - hotel pickup, beautiful sights, history, cultural information, and treats along the way. The stop at each town was incredibly memorable. We also had a great stop at the Spanish-French border for a coffee and incredible views. If you're looking for a special day that will take you away frm the tourist-heavy sites in Donostia-San Sebastian, this is the tour for you. Ander, thank you so much for your warmth and for a day that we will never forget. If we visit again your beautiful country, you will see us for a repeat tour! Brian Couch and Flo Couch

Blow your mind in Getaria where Juan Sebastian de Elcano, the first man who went around the world was born, where Txakoli mostly is produced and where the Balenciaga Museum is located. Finally visit Zumaia, the town chosen by many film makers to record sitcoms like the last season of Game of Thrones or "Spanish Affair", a very famous Spanish movie. Do not lose the opportunity to visit the fantastic towns of Guipuzcoa shore.

Game of Thrones, one of the most popular television shows, moved to the coast of the Basque Country to shoot several of the scenes that gave life to a new location called Dragonstone, for the seventh season. In the real life the beach and the island that form the place, are in fact located in two different places and during this tour, we will visit both! Follow the steps of your favourite Game of Thrones characters in the Basque Country visiting spectacular cliffs with a history of more than 60 million years and magical rocky island of pirates, witches and legends.

Our expectations of San Sebastian were not in vain. Bask Me Private Tours brought us to the different famous sites in the city. They gave us accounts on the history and culture of the region, and also allowed us to experience their gastronomies while we mix with Donostiarras. We had fond memories of this amazing city. I would highly recommend their services to my family and friends who will visit San Sebastian in the near future.

This is a very complete experience with the very best highlights of the surroundings of San Sebastián and the whole province of Guipúzcoa. First we will drive through mount igueldo to visit the sleepy fishing village of Orio and walk along it's old quarter to then drive through "txurruka" that is one of the txakoli wine growing areas with a stop at the very top where we will take pictures at the viewpoint of Zarautz and visit an the old steel cargo bay. Then we will drive through the coastline up to Getaria, the birthplace of Juan Sebastian Elcano and fashion designer Valenciaga. In Getaria we will park in the fishing port and walk our way up to the different monuments and watch the chefs prepare the famous charcoal grilled fish on the streets (there is option to have lunch at travellers expense). Then in Zumaia we will drive up to the famous flysch where game of thrones was filmed and walk down to the famous beach. This tour has three different possibilities with meal options.

Inclusions: Private transportation, Air-conditioned vehicle, Bottled water, Pick up/drop off service from hotel or apartment. , Highly experienced guide, English native/ bilingual guide. , Charcoal grilled fish lunch option in getaria ( at travellers expense)

Since we arrived in Spain nearly 2 weeks ago, we have participated in several tours as we traveled across Spain. All very enriching, insightful, and worth while. As the cliché goes “save the best for last!” Jamie, tour operator/owner, picked us up bright and early from our hotel and off we went to Bilbao. Jamie brought along his cousin/operator in training, which we were totally cool with and actually it added another level to the tour. Compared to our other tours, they ultimately felt, for the like of a better word, like tours. You were paying someone to show you around. There was some invisible boundary that separated operator from client, totally fine but it feels fake sometimes. This tour felt different, it felt like a couple friends taking a road trip from San Sebastián to Bilbao. One of the friends being really knowledgeable, Jamie. One of the friend working off that energy, Jaime cousin. The other friends going along for the ride, us. It was refreshing and fantastic. Having conversations as we drove between the two cities made the time whiz by so quickly. That’s a plus! Normally, one of us, fiancé or I, are falling asleep as we get to a destination. Not this time around, Jaime and his cousin were really engaging. Admittedly, I had some doubts that we wouldn’t get a breathe of Bilbao in a day but, I have to be honest, we really felt like we got immersed in the city. He guided us through the streets and history. Showed us local spots and let us on our own at the Guggenheim to take in the art. Afterwards we chatted our way back to our hotel. We could have hung out with both Jaime and his cousin all day. Next time, we are back in town, we will take him up on one of his other tours. Highly recommend having him show you around. Super knowledge and engaging. I can not recommend this tour any higher.

I am a Basque native, in love with my country, culture and gastronomy. And after be working with travelers 7 years, in 2015 I started offering artisan, unique and authentic experiences in my own. Aiming to offer the possibility to enjoy feeling and living, the true essence of the Basque Country, out of the commercial and away from the tourist masses. And this is the best experience I offer ever about the fish and the txakoli wine in our coast and probably the most pure that is offered in the city. If you don’t believe me, came on to collect the best sea food and wines of the coast and tasting picnic, cooking on the grill in the paradise. And after completing the experience, you are not satisfied. I will return you, the amount paid for it.

Inclusions: Private transportation, Orange juice, the best croissant ever and coffee, in the restaurant of my favorite chef, located right in front of the beach, if we have good weather we can also breakfast outside feeling the waves, We will savour a classic appetizer of our coast, with best Txakoli wine, natural apple juice, water or everything., Cooking on the grill, to you can taste the fish and wines collected, enjoying a nice picnic in a beautiful place., Optional very beutiful hike for all levels, with mountain sticks available., Local cooking lover (private chef), Liability and accident insurance
