    I was pleasantly surprised by the tour. Elorrio, Oinati and Arantzazu are places to visit at least once in your life. An ancient beauty, unique! I took some great photos for my networks here!

    It was a different kind of tour, I think we went through the oldest parts of Spain. Villages with exquisite architecture and maintained over time. The guide knew how to tell the history of each place to always keep in mind.
