My wife and I participated in an incredible week-long wine-and-culinary tour (sponsored by the WineNot Boutique in New Hampshire) that began in Bilbao and ended in Barcelona. The food was fabulous, the wine was exquisite, and Erik (who reminds me of a young Robin Williams, not only with his looks but with his quick wit and passion for his work) made this trip over-the-top unforgettable. The depth and breadth of his knowledge for the places we visited, the wines we drank, and the foods we ate was extraordinary. His resolution of the hiccups experienced along our route was seamless when things didn’t go exactly as planned. You see, our group of 13 tended to linger at the restaurants and bodegas a bit too long and we put ourselves behind schedule on several occasions because we were having such a fabulous time every place we visited! If you’re planning a trip to the Basque Country, do yourself a favor and book a few hours, if not an entire week, with Erik and Basque Experiences. You most certainly will not regret it.
