This tour visits Guernica, a town with deep significance to the Basque people, the fishing town of Bermeo, and finishes with a wine tasting at a Txakoli winery.
After meeting your guide at the pier, it is about a 20 minute drive to Gernika, known in Spanish as Guernica. On April 26, 1937, the town was destroyed by German Condor Legion bombers acting in support of Francisco Franco's forces during the Spanish Civil War, an attack that inspired Pablo Picasso to paint his most famous work, Guernica, named after the town. Gernika has long been the symbolic heart of Basque nationalism, and you will see the Gernika Tree, under which Basque assemblies were traditionally held for centuries and which remains the emblem of the Basque Country.
From there you continue to Bermeo, one of the most important fishing towns in the region. Small boats fill the harbor, colorful houses line the waterfront, and the town's landmarks include a casino dating to 1894, a 17th century town hall, and several historic churches. A nearby beach draws sunbathers and swimmers in season.
After visiting these two towns, you stop at a txakolinera, a winery producing Txakoli, the dry, slightly sparkling white wine popular throughout the Basque Country. The tasting is served with local products such as bread, tomatoes, and olive oil.
