i have Italian and Basque-french heritage. The basque culture is something i am pretty invested in and i hope to someday visit the country!

Hands down our stay in the Basque country was the best European trip we ever took.

We loved Basque Country

You’ve sold me for sure! It wold be nice to see the names of the places you mention in text onscreen. Im not used to “Spanish” Spanish yet.👂🏼

Great video! 👍 The Basque region is so beautiful!! I would add Lekeitio to the list. It's a beautiful little fishing town. Great list! 👏

We are right behind Tokyo (#1) in Michelin Star Rated restaurants per capita. You can also enjoy an affordable "menú del día" almost everywhere for 12 to 15€. PS: tapas are for free with the drink and they are more like 'easy to cook'-like foods (and fries/peanuts/etc). A pintxo - in Euskara - or pincho - in Spanish - are miniature cuisine bites, more elaborated, to enjoy with your drink and it's paid apart. Let's say tapas are like a gift and pintxos are the main thing, even ahead the wine/txakoli/beer/cider. Everybody is welcome to Euskal Herria/Euskadi/País Vasco/ Basque Country!

Many beautiful places to visit in Spain!

I like your video. But, it covers only the Spanish side of Basque country which extends into France as well. Cities like Biarritz and large towns such as St Jean-Pied-de-Port. All worthy of mention in the Basque Country. I have been there a few times, and if I won the lottery it would definitely be my place to live.

Thanks for your accuracy. As basques we always have to face the denial and make a big effort to explain what our old nation is. And being the oldest people and culture of Europe we have been in this corner of Europe well before Spain or France existed even as geographical notions, but there also are a few people like you who understand our reality. Eskerrik asko!

Awesome video well done 👍🏻

Come and visit it. It is nice and you will experience the oldest language and culture of Europe. Although it is a nation divided by an artificial frontier (4 provinces inside the spanish state and 3 inside the french state), the 7 territories keep their traditions alive until now and very proud of doing so

From your video, I gather 7 days will be enough to go to, see, feel, and taste the food of Bilbao, San Sebastian, and a few small towns? I have been to Madrid, Seville, Toledo, Granada, Ronda, and Barcelona but I am now planning a trip to Basque Country!

I would like to travel Basque region from the beginning of June. It is possible to travel by train? And what cities and towns I should visit? I appreciate anyones recommendations.

Can you compare the flavors of food to an area in the US? I’m sure chicken still taste like chicken lol but what combo of herbs and spices do they use? It look sooo good!!!

You missed de 3rd town . The capital, Vitoria- Gasteiz and the Rioja wine country. You uses some images of the Rioja but you don’t even noun it. So the information is a kind of incomplete.

I can’t spell the names of the towns you cited at the end. Please could you spell them out for me!
