Can you please provide a children's discount for these travellers? There are two children.

Children: under 4 years old travel free on the bus, without a bed, sharing a room with two adults. Any additional costs incurred must be paid by their parents. Children: aged 4 to 7 in a triple room shared with two adults, 25% discount. Young people: under 18 years of age, 5% discount.

Is it the same price for adults and for children? Can they be sleeping in the same room? Children are 7 and 9 years old.

We do not have quadruple rooms, so you would need to book two rooms. Children: Under 4 years are free of charge, all expenses incurred to be paid directly on site. Children from 4-7 years sharing double room with 2 adults, 25% discount. Young: under 18, 5% discount. Senior: over 65, 5% discount. Triple: third person in triple room, 5% discount. Discounts are not cumulative.

Is it permitted to bring our mobility scooters on the trip? They are compact, foldable and airline approved. They measure 20" wide X 16" high X 40" long.

I'm sorry, but this is not permitted unless it is essential for a person with limited mobility, as the luggage compartments on buses are very limited.

Is any time in this tour spent in the Basque part of Spain?

How much of the tour is spent in the Basque Country?

I am a solo traveller. Could you please advise & send price quote for shared accommodation at your earliest convenience.

We do not offer shared room accommodation. If you are travelling alone, you will need to choose the single room option.

What is the price for 2 single rooms as I would be travelling with a family member

The price for two people in two separate rooms is €1,535 per passenger.

How to meet up at the departure point? Are you picking up passengers from hotels or there is a designated point of departure? Please advise so as to allowing hotel reservation. Also need information of dropping off in Madrid as I might want to stay day or two there before flying back.

We only pick up from hotels if you have booked your hotel with us. Otherwise, you will be asked to meet us at a departure point, at the VPT offices located at Calle Ferraz 3. If you wish, we can provide you with a quote for accommodation in Madrid and airport transfers.

Does this tour have English speaking guides?

Yes, our tours are bilingual in Spanish and English.

How large is the group? I am looking for small group with luxury accomodation.

Our groups are confirmed from 2 passengers up to 55.

Is it safe to go on a tour with changing weather conditions?

Just returned from this trip quite disappointed…. Pros: - Excellent bus driver - Good Hotels (even though some were far away from the city centers) - Good food most of the time - Excellent Tour Guides for the elective excursions Cons: - unacceptable Tour Guide who spoke Spanish most of the time. English was spoken 10% of the time and it was impossible to understand or hear!!!!! Almost no information was given during the long bus rides!!!! Plus she was quite disorganized and provided very little details on what to expect from the trip daily! - Long, long bus rides with the stops that are questionable. We spent just 1-2 hours in the most desirable places like Bilbao or St Sebastian which was not even nearly enough and stopped in the places where was nothing to see. - Stopped in Bilbao on Monday when Museum was CLOSED!!!!! What a disappointment! Never stopped in St Sebastian old town!!!! Also huge disappointment!!!!!! So in general I didn’t feel that the tour was well organized!!!! - seats in the bus were not assigned and rotated. Which means that some people had good seats for the whole ride and some people were not that lucky!!!!! - The whole trip was poorly designed and covered too much distance. Therefore felt rushed and exhausting…. - Main disappointment was a tour guide with horrible English and poor guidance!!!!! Will not recommend it to anyone!!!Show more

As a very senior couple having traveled the world many times and Spain often, this 8 day tour would be amongst our top five. We were the only non-Spanish speaking people amongst a dozen from South America. We were rarely left out and our guide's English was good, thoughtful and interesting Our driver was five star. A little gathering organised for a celebration of a big O wedding anniversary was off the regular plan and well managed. The visit to the mussel farm was a highlight extra and should not be missed even if you don't like scrumptious shell fish. On this tour there is so much beauty in the history and architecture of the cathedrals and ancient centres for visiting and admiring. Such art and atmosphere is priceless where as shopping can be done online. Not our first time with Tourradar. We'll join them again for sure.Show more

The tour exceeded my expectations. The guide Helena & driver Sergio were amazing, both of them always smiling & very happy & available to help all of our group who were Spanish and English. We visited a lot of places and had such a fun time with people from all over the world. I just loved it. The only criticism I would have is with regards Oviero. This city is not a good stop, there are better cities to visit & the hotel, Iberik Santo Domingo Plaza is definately not a 4*. The city & hotel are just not up to the standard of all the other places you offer. I would suggest looking for a different city & hotel.Show more
