Our friends had booked this all day tour for us and it was just the four of us. Adur I. was our guide, and he was outstanding. In addition, to getting us to and from San Sebastián and Getaria , he provided commentary on the Basque culture, history and the current state of affairs in the Basque Country, Spain and the World!!! We loved it!!!
We thoroughly enjoyed our walks through San Sebastián (it was during the annual film festival so we were told it was more crowded than usual), and the small seaside town of Getaria. The tour included two stops for pintxos which served as refreshing breaks.
Most important, Adur was extremely sensitive to our limitations…..he walked at a slower pace for us and in Getaria dropped us off rather than make us walk from the van’s parking spot. While we liked seeing and learning about San Sebastián and Getaria, the highlight of the trip was meeting and getting to know Adur; indeed, it helped that we shared similar social and political philosophies.
