Great Hondarribia tour with a wonderful guide - We loved our Hondarribia tour! Iker was a fabulous guide and was full of information on the area and its history. I loved walking around Hondarribia and the other little towns we went to. The shuttle boat ride was especially fun! Local Experts Tours was great to deal with and responded to messages quickly. Our pickup was right on time, and the van was clean and comfortable. Really the best! We totally enjoyed it and highly recommend.

Amazing tour!!! - Tour was absolutely amazing! Paul’s explanation of Hondarribia’s history made the streets come alive and helped me understand the city so much better. The way the medieval atmosphere has been preserved here is truly beautiful. Pasai and San Pedro were also stunning, and although the boat ride was short, it was such a wonderful and memorable experience. Paul’s guiding, preparation of materials, and overall operation were simply perfect. Thank you so much for creating such a great memory for us!

Our guide was excellent,Josu obviously loves this area and is very interested and keen to share his knowledge of the history of the area. He is very enthusiastic and interesting and kept all of us well informed despite needing to speak two languages
