We really enjoyed this day. We visited a charming winery and were driven by Alex to several spots in the countryside which were fantastic, specially a little romanic church in the middle of nowhere. We also had the chance of visiting a few medieval towns full of history. Really worthy.

Really upsetting, we had only one day in Bilbao and planned the whole day around the fact that we would have a city tour around 4pm. No one with the orange umbrella showed up and we ended up with the feeling that we wasted our little time badly. Make yourself a favor and do not set your expectations too high for this tour, it seems to be very unreliable.

My tour to the island of Gaztelugatxe. At the top of the island there is a hermitage dedicated to San Juan. The access is a spectacular narrow path that starts from the mainland and crosses over the rocks by a stone bridge that allows you to reach the upper area of the islet after climbing 241 steps The effort and the idyllic views of its beaches and cliffs are worth the effort. Today, Bermeo stands as one of the few fishing villages that still lives the way its ancestors did, from the sea, from fishing. A fact that is attested to by the large number of canning companies in the area and the colorful fishing boats that we find in its port. Finally, Guernica is famous all over the world due to Pablo Picasso's painting of the same name. The painting shows the suffering and tragedy that took place in Guernica on April 26, 1937. The city was completely devastated by the bombing and many civilians lost their lives. Fortunately, however, the two most important symbols of Guernica, the Casa de Juntas and the Guernica Tree, survived. The tour is worthwhile and if you have a spectacular guide like Stephan, well, the day has gone very well.

We booked a Localgrapher for a couples shoot in Arizona. The results were okay at best, and we regretted not seeking out an established local in the area. For the price, we received 60 very average choices and the ability to select 35 shots. We couldn’t even find 35 framed correctly. The localgrapher website is also a joke which requires a youtube video to figure out. The UI is terrible and the photos will disappear rapidly so do not wait to download (set aside a couple hours - that’s how bad it is). But really, just avoid. Hire someone directly.
