Meet San Sebastian's most interesting spots by walking across its historic area! Join our local guides and do not miss any of the secrets that this emblematic city hides, learning every detail of its buildings and its people.

Departing from the border of Old and New Towns (where the 19th century city walls were built!) we will take you through the serpentine Old Town streets, visiting the two main churches and the pintxo streets. Later on we will show you the expansion of the city during the early 20th century with the influence of the Spanish Queen Maria Cristina in the construction of many of San Sebastian's most characteristic buildings such as Hotel de Londres and Maria Cristina (named after her), the catherdal of Buen Pastor (Good Shepherd), the Tabakalera museum, Victoria Eugenia auditorium and many more. This activity includes a pintxo round in a traditional bar in La Parte Vieja, the Old Town!

What To Expect

1

Discover the Belle Époque charm of San Sebastián 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 María 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 María Cristina Hotel, a glamorous symbol of the San Sebastián 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.

In this second part of the tour, we’ll delve into the narrow streets of the Old Town, where one of the city's most intense battles took place. We will visit the Market of La Bretxa, a historic marketplace that has been a vital part of local life for centuries. As we explore, you'll discover century-old shops, some over 190 years old! We’ll step inside the Church of San Vicente, a Gothic gem that holds a relic older than the city itself, and visit the famous Plaza de la Constitución, which conceals fascinating hidden secrets. Our journey ends at the iconic Church of Santa María del Coro, where we’ll admire its stunning Baroque façade from the outside.

    A lovely tour of San Sebastián! Our guide was knowledgeable and interesting to listen to, and provided great historical and architectural information. And the pintxos and wine were a great way to end the tour! We only had a few hours in town, and it was a perfect way to spend them.

    Requested a tour in English. Guide spoke with a very heavy accent and her English wasn’t very good. All of us on the tour had no idea what she was saying.

    Fran is very passionate about telling the history of San Sebastian, its culture, its passion for food, and the Basque culture and area. He also walked the group by some very good Pintxo bars that he recommended that we could check out later after the tour.
