One of the most attractive things about San Sebastian is its magnificent hinterland. Although the city itself has much to offer, it is well worth venturing further afield to discover the lesser known Basque Country. Continuing north we will find the coast. The Basque Coast is an authentic natural paradise with treasures you won’t find anywhere else in the world.
Discover a territory that holds, a lush green maze-like countryside, a versatile coastline, a strong cultural tradition, the oldest language in Europe and where cooking is an essential part of the culture and of life itself.

We are recently back from a vacation in Spain and our 3 days of touring San Sebastián and Basque Country with Andoni of Baskme tours was not only the highlight of this trip but every trip we have ever taken. If you are considering a visit, do yourself a favor and reach out to Andoni. From our first email communication, Andoni was a pleasure to work with, clearly knowledgeable about the region but also curious about our interests and needs, and passionate about planing a trip that would satisfy our 3 generational group. Before even meeting us, Andoni helped arrange accommodations and reservations and all of his ideas proved to be perfection. When we met him on arrival, our instinct to trust him with our visit was not only validated but exceeded our expectations. We did 3 tours with Baskme: San Sebastián and Pixto, Countryside and Coast and Bay of Biscay. Andoni shared his extensive knowledge of the region’s fascinating history with enthusiasm, unveiled the beauty of the region with excitement, and introduced us to the culinary delights at each stop with joy. He is kind, going above and beyond for us in too many ways and he is personable and funny, making the 3 days we spent together feel like a visit with a dear friend. We can’t wait to return and see our now “old friend”again. Andoni…”Wow, Wow, Wow”! Thank you for an experience of a lifetime.
