Coastal tour: flysch & txakoli

Ernes is a wonderful tour guide! He is multi-lingual and very proficient with English. That was helpful for us as our Spanish is a bit rusty. Ernes really went out of his way to make sure that our tour was perfect. At every step of the way he was willing to make last minute changes according to our wishes. We spent a most wonderful day visiting a Txakoli vineyard in the Getaria area, including a tasting. We had a delicious lunch of BBQ fish at a local restaurant, and finished with a hike along a portion of the St. James Trail to see the geological rock formations along the water that can only be seen at low tide. I do not think we could possibly have squeezed one more thing into the day. As a guide, we found Ernes to be very informative, helpful, accomodating, and energetic.Thank you Ernes! I can definitely say that if I am fortunate to return to this area of Spain, I will be touring with Ernes and Ikusnahi. We got to see and do things that we otherwise would never have found on our own. I highly recommend! Ernes is a wonderful tour guide! He is multi-lingual and very proficient with English.

We contacted Ernes last minute for a day trip. We were lucky he was available. Our day tour took us to a local winery which was excellent with amazing views and delicious sparkling white wine, then we went to a geological site with stunning cliffs and a charming historic fisherman's chapel, followed by an outstanding lunch near a popular port. We finished the day with a sampling of anchovies and sardines that were amazing. Had we not been tired, we would have done a coastal hike which Ernes offered as well. What I loved most was learning about the region and the Basque people. There is nothing like being introduced to a country by a local resident who is intelligent, genuine, and engaging. If you hire Ernes, you will not be disappointed. We contacted Ernes last minute for a day trip. We were lucky he was available. Our day tour took us to...

We had an awesome trip doing the cheese and wine tour. The tour includes a visit in the countryside to discover a sheep farm where we could have a look at how the typical cheese Idiazábal is made. Then we move to the Txakoli Vineyard close to Getaria, one lovely fishing village! It was beautiful and the tour not only interesting but also fun. I would recommend this tour to anyone. The knowledgeable friendly guide, Ernes, the amazing sights, the incredible food and wine... It was everything we could have expected and more. Certainly a tour to remember that fullfilled all our expectations! We had an awesome trip doing the cheese and wine tour. The tour includes a visit in the countryside to...

Ernest was the best tour guide around San Sebastian area. We spent a day doing the Countryside & the Basque Coast tour, which was awesome, because he took us to some interior regions in the Basque mountain area, that we simply would not have seen without him. We also took time to enjoy an incredible picnic on the way and a fantastic lunch in Getaria. Ernest was really knowledgeable and passionate about the area and the Basque history and he was there for us all the time ! In this day, not only we gained a friend in Ernest, but we also felt part of the amazing Basque culture. I would definitely use Ikusnahi tours again and recommend Ernest for anyone needing tours in the area. Thanks! Ernest was the best tour guide around San Sebastian area.
