Fabulous tour

Audrey_J, May 2023

Imma old was an incredibly knowledgeable, interesting, and kind tour guide who took his time to show us the beautiful Basque countryside. Our tour of the farm was just as lovely, and having the opportunity to break bread and taste cheese with a passionate artisan was really delightful. Would recommend that visitors who are passionate about the quality of food go on this tour!
