Sebastian of San Sebastián
Sebastian was incredible from start to finish. We learned a lot about the city and the history as well as the amazing Pinxto spots he introduced us to. I would highly recommend Sebastian to anyone looking for a great tour of San Sebastián and we will definitely use him again.

Eating San Sebastian: Beyond Pintxos Tourdavid_l, Sep 2026
Amazing pintxos tour
Iri, the tour guide is a true local and was helpful, friendly, funny and very knowledgeable. The tour showed us some brilliant, different pintxos venues with amazing food and drinks where we were treated like family, not like tourists.

Must do

A perfect private tour …
Jose Luis is an exceptional guide. We had a fully personalized private tour, just the two of us, and he even picked us up from our apartment. Thanks to his perfect timing, we avoided the late‑morning crowds at Dragonstone. He was flexible, engaging, and shared fascinating highlights about Basque history, culture, and daily life. We highly recommend this experience.

Bilbao Basque Coast Day
We had a fantastic day with Alby visiting Bilbao, the Guggenheim Museum and Gaztelugatxe. It was a great way to see more of the Basque Country and we really enjoyed the whole day.Alby was a brilliant guide. He was friendly, relaxed and knowledgeable, and shared his knowledge in such an interesting and easy way. Being an Aussie was an added bonus for us and made the day even more enjoyable!Everything was well organised and we never felt rushed. It was a really memorable day and we would definitely recommend this tour and Alby to anyone visiting the area.

Visit to Bodegas IzadiW6490WMelizabeths, Sep 2026
Fabulous and fascinating tour of the wine making process
Laura from Bodega Izadi gave us a fascinating and very memorable tour of the enterprise. As it is harvest time we saw the whole wine making process from delivery of the grapes through to fermentation and ageing, visiting five floors in the building. We even saw a young apprentice wine maker treading grapes in the process of creating a new wine, good fun! We ended with a tasting of three of the Izadi fine wines with tasty finger food. We loved Laura’s enthusiasm, deep knowledge and humour. Her English was excellent and she answered all our questions so fluently. We both highly recommend this tour and the Izadi wines

Could not recommend more highly
Paul was an absolute delight! Gentle, knowledgable, and still filled with curiosity for the place he has called home for 25 years. Could not recommend this tour and guide more highly! Loved everything about from the food to the history. Bilbao is officially my favourite Spanish city.

A tasty time will be had!
What a great experience this was… not just for the delicious food and drinks along the way, but also such fascinating insights into the stories and culture of Bilbao, both historical and contemporary. Our guide Paul was super friendly, knowledgeable and a great host. Heads up…Don’t eat before you go! There’s so much on offer and you’ll want to try it all.

Great day trip.
My wife and I did this day trip and the guide we had was Alby. The tour itself is great and a really enjoyable day. The Dragonstone walk is quite steep so I recommend taking water and even a change of shirt or deodorant if it’s a hot day. There is plenty of time to walk it though so whilst it’s challenging you can absolutely stop as much as you like. The view is worth the trek though. The lunch in Bilbao was excellent and Guggenheim was good. The timing for the day was right with nothing feeling rushed. If you get a chance ask for Alby as your guide. He was a brilliant tour guide and made the day what it was - really enjoyable. He was really informative and provided great information during the day. The lunch spot he chose was outstanding and he was a brilliant host. Can’t rate him highly enough. Overall I’d highly recommended this tour.

Outstanding company
We’ve now done two tours with The Good Tour Company, and both were exceptional! Our first trip was to La Rioja with Jimi, the owner, and our second was to Lourdes with Alex. Everything about both tours was absolute perfection—flawless organization, great local knowledge, and fantastic company. Highly recommend!

Visit to Bodegas IzadiYolanda_S, Sep 2026
Unforgettable
The whole visit was very interesting. It also happened that the harvest was starting, so we were able to see the winery in operation. The final tasting, in the same room as the barrels, makes the experience unforgettable. The attention from our guide, Joanna, is worth highlighting.
