“The good: The Basque region was a major focal point of the tour, much more so than what I was expecting given we were in Bordeaux. The food was very unique to this region and I don't think I would have tried some of the items without having the guide explain and push to try new things. The guide was very knowledgable. Things to be aware of: Overall it was a good experience, I just wish I would have dressed more warmly given the time of year and that we were not inside as much as I thought we would be. So dress as if you will be outside and…”

A wonderful experience! I recommend bringing water with you since there’s lots of food but not much to drink.
