Take advantage of your leisurely break to ascend to the summit of an island, immerse yourself in the quaint charm of a picturesque fishing village, and marvel at the iconic Tree of Gernika's grandeur.
From Bilbao, a direct transfer will be arranged for our journey to San Juan de Gaztelugatxe. During this scenic route, we shall enjoy an hour dedicated to crossing the iconic stone bridge, adorned with 241 steps leading to the summit. This historic structure serves as a testament to the region's rich history and culture, particularly noted due to its use in filming scenes from "Game of Thrones."
Upon reaching Gaztelugatxe, we shall embark on a guided walk along the ancient streets, immersing ourselves in the town’s vibrant atmosphere and maritime heritage. Our exploration will culminate at the picturesque Biscay town of Bermeo, renowned for its charming harbor and centuries-old fishing traditions.
As our day progresses, we shall proceed towards Gernika, the birthplace of Pablo Picasso’s iconic masterpiece, "Guernica." Here, we will visit the Assembly Hall, an architectural gem that stands as a poignant reminder of the resilience of Basque society after World War II. Noteworthy among these landmarks is the famous Tree of Gernika, a towering symbol of peace and unity within the Basque community.
