I am so overwelmed by the beauty of the Basque country, its incredible gastronomy, the wines, but specially I feel overwelmed with  the culture and the people.

This has been a life changing tour!

BEST TIME TO TRAVEL

Northern Spain is gorgeous year-round although it can get quite wet in spring and fall! But what’s a little rain?!

Any time between May and October is a good time to visit Beintza. However, the months of May, September, and October offer the best combination of good weather and lighter crowds at sights. September and October don’t have long days, but the forest is gorgeous!

Remember to pack a coat, mornings and evenings are chilly, no matter the month of the year.
