Overview

Discover San Sebastian like a local with our walking, a guided journey from the elegant city centre to the narrow lanes of the Old Town, showing why this Atlantic jewel captivates at first sight.

Start among boulevards, theatres, and historic hotels of the Belle Epoque and Queen Maria Cristina, as your guide shares stories of the city’s nineteenth-century origins, twentieth-century expansion, and vibrant cultural life around City Hall, Victoria Eugenia Theatre, Tabakalera, and the Cathedral of the Good Shepherd.

Continue into the historic heart, where San Vicente and Santa Maria churches watch over squares and pintxo-lined streets. Learn about San Sebastians’s gastronomic tradition and receive genuine recommendations for further exploration.

The tour concludes with a pintxo and drink in a classic Old Town bar (not included for bilingual tour), the perfect toast to a stroll that blends heritage, culture, and flavor. Ideal and delicious introduction to San Sebastian.

Discover the Belle Époque charm of San Sebastian as we explore its most iconic landmarks. Our journey begins at the City Hall (Ayuntamiento), a stunning building with a rich history. Strolling along the famous La Concha Beach, you'll hear how the city became a luxurious spa retreat for Spanish royalty. Next, we'll visit the impressive Cathedral of Buen Pastor, home to one of Europe’s largest organs. Our journey continues as we cross the Maria Cristina Bridge, an architectural gem inspired by the bridges of Paris, offering breathtaking views of the Urumea River. We'll then admire the exterior of the Maria Cristina Hotel, a glamorous symbol of the San Sebastian Film Festival, still bearing scars from the Spanish Civil War. Just across, we'll see the Victoria Eugenia Theatre, a historic venue that has witnessed the city's vibrant cultural life.
