Gaztelugatxe and Gernika Tour

Discover the Basque region that surrounds Bilbao called Biscay (Bizkaia in Basque language) during a full-day trip from San Sebastian. Fall in love with the charming 10th century hermitage of San Juan de Gaztelugatxe and climb its 241 stairs to get to the top and enjoy its magnificent views. Game of Thrones’ 7th season was shot here, so find yourself at Dragonstone!

After a little break to have a rest learn about Basque history by visiting the legendary Gernika tree and the tragic bombing of the village during the Spanish civil war. Picasso´s Gernika portrayal will be visited along the way.

The tour is conducted in bilingual (English and Spanish), so our guides will speak both languages simultaneously.
