The walk to the castle on the rock is worth the hike down and the "climb up". History, views, and wonder.

This trip was amazing! We were picked up in the designated location on time, we were with another 6people and it was pleasant. They gave us enough time to see everything and experience everything but not staying too long to get bored. The tour guide was really nice, she told us about interesting facts but then didn’t talk too much. As for an introvert, this was pleasant experience and I definitely 100% recommend it!

Our guide/driver spoke good English and the commentary was somewhat interesting. You'll be on your own for the Gaztelugatxe hike (it's an equally long hike down to the beach as up to the hermitage, then back, so dress appropriately to get very sweaty at the start of a long day) and in Bermeo for lunch. In Gernika you'll have both free time and a tour of the Assembly House with the guide. Good group size (6).

Fantastic way to see more of Bizkaia from Bilbao! Gaztelugatxe was both figuratively and literally the highlight of the tour (hard walk but it is absolutely worth it). Lunch at Artza in the pretty fishing village of Bermeo was fantastic, and the visit to Guernica beautiful and impressive. Paola was a very nice guide who knew a lot about the places we visited, and Basque Country / Bizkaia in general. She also always took the time to answer questions, and her explanation in Guernica gave a good idea of what happened there in the Spanish civil war. Thank you so much for this tour, my girlfriend and I recommend him to everyone who is good on their feet!
100% recommended, amazing experience!

I went with my partner and the whole tour exceeded our expectations completely! We were a small group and the ride in the van was amazing. Spectacular landscapes especially in San Juan de Gaztelugatxe, it is a slightly demanding route but totally worth it. Especially I want to thank our guide Paula who made the experience even better! Super friendly and attentive, I loved how he was doing all the tour and all the information he gave us. I would definitely repeat a tour with her and in the future I hope to do it! Thank you!!

Borja was a great guide with so much passion for the Basque culture. We learned so much about both Basque and world history especially during the last stop in Gurnica. Borja was very animated and detailed and full of energy through the day even though he had to repeat everything twice in English and Spanish. Bermeo was a beautiful spot for lunch. And the hike was intense especially the steep path back to the parking lot at the end. There is some pressure to keep the pace with the group but understandably considering there are two more stops and a schedule to keep. It was a long day but very worth the experience.
