À la découverte du Pays basque, avec Clémence

Un grand merci à Clémence pour son professionnalisme et sa bonne humeur, j’ai passé une super après-midi, c’était très agréable. Elle m’a fait visiter les villages typiques du Pays basque, ainsi que son terroir, je recommande vivement cette excursion.

Highly recommended without hesitation!

A big thank you to Clémence and especially to Nils, our guide for the day aboard Joe, the magnificent green 1976 VW van 😂. A real moment of sharing along the itinerary... thank you Nils. We learned so much, it was very nice. Thank you Clémence for the wonderful meetings with farmers who are passionate about their work. We will go back to see Jean Francois and Maritxu.... If you wish to take or give this tour as a gift, do not hesitate! Do it, it's really great!

Absolutely Great Experience!

The tour is simply perfect! Klem is an excellent guide, very knowledgeable and full of love to her country, Basque. With her we almost sank into the very warm atmosphere of Basque Country, meeting people, seeing various animals - pigs, goats, wild basque horses, sheep, testing food and wine, exploring cosy basque villages and enjoying beautiful landscapes! We learnt a lot about Basque history, nature, culture, sports, etc. By the end of the trip we completely fell in love with the places we v...read more

Fantastic Tour!

This is one of the best tours we’ve ever done. Clemence was fantastic. She had so much knowledge about the area that she shared, and she was particularly helpful and considerate with my 90-year-old mother, who has some physical limitations. I would highly recommend this tour. We got to taste wonderful foods and see so much of the Basque country that we wouldn’t know to look for by ourselves.
