5.00Diego was an amazing tour guide. He knows so much history and is so energetic about his hometown. His energy was infectious. As is normal for northern Spain, we had a lot of rain that day, and Diego was able to pivot and still provide an excellent tour. Would definitely recommend.
Iker was highly informed on every aspect of our tour. We learned so much of local history and geography in the region. Most enjo

5.00Our guide, Diego, was really terrific! His historical knowledge was second to none, and he is from the area we toured, so he was really able to dive into so many interesting and diverse topics and stories. I learned a lot, the camaraderie with all the people on the tour was great, and we had an absolute blast! I will absolutely refer Local Experts Tours to anyone visiting San Sebastián!

5.00The Hondarribia, San Juan & San Pedro from San Sebastian tour gives a good insight into the surrounding areas of San Sebastian and some of the smaller towns. Enjoy fantastic walks through the old cities with a knowledgeable and experienced guide, Iker, who provides insights into the history, culture, and some unusual anecdotes. The tour is just four hours and packs in a lot of sights and info, delivered with some local humour. Safe and comfortable ride in Iker's Mercedes van.
Superb!! Do not miss this tour while in San Sebastián!

5.00Excellent!! We loved this tour and saw beautiful sights and Diego was so informative with a great knowledge of the region. It was a wonderful adventure seeing the little villages along the river. I’d highly recommend Diego for his kindness and excellent historical knowledge. This tour is a must!! It was fun to explore some close-by medieval fishing villages. They were bright, quaint and pretty.
