Tour description
San Sebastián, or Donostia in Basque, is one of Europe's most beautiful seaside cities, wrapped around the perfect golden crescent of La Concha bay. On this walking tour a local guide shares the story of a city that grew from a fishing port into the elegant summer retreat of Spanish royalty, and today into a global capital of food.
You will walk the famous bayfront promenade, dive into the lively Old Town packed with pintxos bars, and hear about the Basque language, identity and traditions that make this corner of Spain so distinct. Chic, relaxed and framed by green hills and blue sea, San Sebastián is pure pleasure on foot.
