Reviews

We had such a great day! I'm so happy we booked this tour. Our driver was on time and drove us on a very nice scenic route to Getaria and showed us what he could and attempted to explain things as best he could in English. We wish we spoke more Spanish! The winery is absolutely beautiful. It sits in the best location with views of the sea and the mountains. It was perfect! I loved the owner and his wife as well. They were so sweet and hospitable. I highly recommend you keep sending people to visit them. Then we made it to our lunch reservation, which was also really delicious! Very good choice. We then had about 45 minutes to wander through Getaria before it was time to head home. Overall, I think it was a very good day and I'm so glad we went to Getaria!
