Awesome Day Trip - Alex was an excellent Tour guide. Friendly,warm, pleasant . He is very knowledgeable. He was able.to answer all our questions. He pointed out all the highlights of the scenery , fun facts and details of the area. We were able to walk at comfortable pace. He went to get the van to pick us up from every location. .Van very nice ,luxury van. Very smooth ride Guggenheim Museum. We enjoyed the flower puppy statue and museum building more than the modern art. The cliffs of Numia were awesome. Alex made reservations for us at A wonderful seafood restaurant in Gretaria with a charcoal grill. The Lunch was so delicious really fresh crab and sea bream fish caught that morning . I would highly recommend San Sebastian Tours

Perfect Day Trip! - Just wrapped up a fantastic tour of Bilbao. The result of a very last minute visit to see the in-laws in Spain who were unable to visit the U.S. resulted in a quickly organized trip to Spain. Our tour was brief owing to time but included a quick visit to the Basque region of Spain to take everyone’s mind off of the past year’s struggles. We booked with San Sebastian Trips and had a magnificent day that included the Guggenheim Bilbao, a lovely visit of the coastal areas and one of the best seafood dining experiences in Getaria on our way back to San Sebastian. Alex was superb. We felt very well attended to and he was very informative and thorough in describing the region. Will definitely plan for extended time to explore more of the region including Rioja, etc. For travelers curious as to COVID precautions ahead of traveling - we felt very safe throughout the region as the citizens and authorities took all appropriate measures with masks, distancing, etc. Highly recommend San Sebastian Trips for a visit to this magnificent part of Spain.

Depends on the Exhibits - When I was coming through Spain, I was told I had to make a stop here. The first exhibit in the museum was incredible, but the rest were very underwhelming for such a famous museum. Some of the exhibits looks like photos of a town that were taken on an iphone. I was greatly disappointed and did not spend a ton of time here.
