Highly recommend this trip! - This was a fantastic tour, our guide Ardur gave so much information about the Basque history. The walk up to Dragonstone is strenuous! Especially the path back up after you get to the bottom, but well worth it! Lunch over the beach was lovely and then the history of Guernica was very heartbreaking, it’s a beautiful town.

Very impressive - The visit to Dragonstone is very spectacular. The paths to the viewpoint and the church are partly very steep and therefore physically demanding. Suitable footwear for rocky terrain is recommended. Also the second one. The stop in the surfer town "really works your calves." But only briefly. Guernica is very impressive, and through the guide, you receive numerous pieces of information that are very moving and explain a lot. A truly varied and interesting tour with spectacular photo opportunities. Our guide was José. Very likable. He conveys all the important information very well, and questions are always answered. 5 stars also for José.
