If you plan on visiting San Sebastian and the Basque area of Spain - and there's no reason why you shouldn't - then you must absolutely book one or more tours with Jon Galdos. He is a well-spoken and interesting tour guide who seems to have a special ability to determine what his clients would like to hear and see.... More

Truly a trip to remember, expertly planned by Jon and Basque Tours. We ate and drank our way through Barcelona and Basque region - the itinerary never felt rushed and always felt perfectly thought through and 100% unique for our family....no easy task. Can't recommend enough.

If anyone is planning to visit this spectacular place, you cannot be in better hands than if you entrust your itinerary to Jon Galdos. We were a family of 5 (50's and 20"s) and were looking for authentic, non-touristy food, wine, and cultural experiences. Jon customized an itinerary that matched our profile to perfection. In addition to the several Michelin... More

We have adjusted our tour and made it so personal. We wanted to have a personal car and exact wineries. So we have recieved it. Wonderful region and great people! I reccommend it to everyone.

We recently did two day tours with Jon - The Basque Coast and Countryside and the Guggenheim tour. We enjoyed ourselves both days, as Jon was an excellent tour guide and made sure to bring us to some very scenic places. He was very friendly and happy to answer all our questions as we drove around, which made for a... More

We were a group of 6 over 50's staying in San Sebastián. We booked Jon for a Rioja tour during the day and the Pintxos tour in the evening. Both tours we're great and Jon was a great host. If I was doing Rioja again, I'd stay in the area overnight. There was a lot of travel to visit two... More

My husband and daughters spent a wonderful day with Jon at the Guggenheim in June. Jon was exemplary and professional from our very first contact via email. Jon picked us up from our unit in San Sebastian at the designated time and couldn't have been more pleasant. He was knowledgeable, fun and good company throughout the entire day. We were... More

In October, I celebrated my 40th birthday in the Basque region with a few friends. Jon was a fantastic guide for the Rioja Valley/San Sebastian leg of the trip! We exchanged e-mails and had a few phone calls before my visit to decide what my friends and I would do when we arrived. By the time we met in person,... More

My daughter and I booked Jon for one day of photography in the French Pyrennes countryside in March, and it was a wonderful photo-filled day. He picked us up in San Sebastian and had his comfortable van stocked with water and umbrellas and off we went. With Jon knowing we're suckers for a good farmer's market, our first stop was... More

What a great day we have had! We cannot recommend John from Basque tours enough - very thoughtful host. From especially hiring a van to accommodate our group size to making sure he had the right size car seats for the kids to planning an itinerary to accommodate all ages to ensuring english speaking guides at the stops and ending...
