BASQUE COUNTRY
No matter where you've just come from, be it the hot, southern plains of Spain or
gentle and pristine France, the Basque Country is different. Known to Basques as
Euskadi or Euskal Herria ('the land of Basque speakers') and called El Pais Vasco
in Spanish, this is where mountain peaks reach for the skies and sublime rocky
coves are battered by mighty Atlantic swells. It's a place that demands exploration
beyond the delightful and cosmopolitan main cities of Bilbao and San Sebastián.
You travel through the Basque Country always curious, and always rewarded.
