“Immergion tour Bilbao”
Onze gids -Miguel ?- kwam niet opdagen, wat we heel jammer vonden en ontgoocheld waren.
Gelukkig konden we aansluiten bij de vrouwelijke Baskische gids -(naam?)
die een andere tour deed om 10u15.
Maar met een veel te grote groep (30 personen)
Onze eerste ervaring met jullie organisatie is dus niet zo positief.
Mvg

Wow!!! That was a fantastic start to my exploration of the Basque region. I learned so much from my guide about the rich culture of this region. He was very clear in his English and cared for all group members answering questions on route.
I learned a bit of the local language but will need to review!
Now I'll search for another tour with you.

“2 hour tour in Old city and Centro areas”
Our Guide was on time, professional, friendly and mostly familiar with his adopted city. While we are satisfied and grateful for the mostly cultural tour that we received, I can’t help but think that it would have been a more enriching experience had our guide either lived longer in the area or was born and raised in Donostia San Sebastián

“Bilbao Walking Tour”
Our guide was Miguel. He was very knowledgeable, charming and interesting. It was a great start to our Bilbao trip. I would highly recommend it. We were running a bit late, so he called me and waited for us. He didn't make me feel bad about it either. Sadly we did end up getting quite cold and wet towards the end. However, we didn't hold Miguel and the company responsible for that!! ????????????

“A nice way to get introduction to Bilbao!”
Miguel greeted us nicely and funny. The tour was instructive. A bit of the history and the culture of Bilbao and the Basque region, some explanations about the proud and distinguished position of the Basque region within the Spanish embrace, an introduction to the greater Bilbao metropolitan area, some explanations about the eating and socializing habits of the city. A nice way to get introduced to Bilbao.

Arrived in Bilbao at 4.00pm and was on the 5.30pm walking tour. Was fantastic introduction to Bilbao by Miguel. Took us thru the old town and gave us interesting stories about the Basque people and region. Also gave recommendations on places to go, use of metro etc, drinks and food. Did I mention he recommended drinks! tried the Kalimotxo and was pleasantly surprised. also tasted many Pintxos starting with la gilda, olives, anchovy, pickled peppers and olive oil which went down a treat.

“ottima visita”
La guida, pur arrivando senza ombrello rosso, ha fornito diverse informazioni informative e utili, fornite in modo rilassato al piccolo gruppo (meno di 10 persone). Ho imparato l'importanza della cultura basca a livello globale, ad esempio l'origine di 3 barche utilizzate nientemeno che da Cristoforo Colombo, e persino 3 buoni posti per pintxos in Plaza Nueva. Il mio unico rimpianto? Non aver fatto questo tour all'inizio del mio soggiorno, per poter beneficiare dei consigli personali della guida. Grazie ancora, Miguel!
