Tour description

A journey full of Victorian extravagance, culinary tips, red carpets, roulette wheels (all red hot!), Mata Haris, Eau de parfums, aviation races, txangurro, Jazz, Surf, Brads Pitts and Marions Cotillards, haute couture, secret pacts , Gildas… and much more!




Immerse yourself in the essence of this city through the stories that have shaped it in the last 200 years... Where do we come from? How did we get here? Come, we reveal it to you.



Aaay, do you remember the Belle Époque in San Sebastian ? that nostalgia! Casinos, spas, nightclubs... an affair of pleasure, luxury and urban development. Would you like a wave bath on La Concha beach, Your Majesty?


Walking through its romantic area, we will discover why it was known as the "Paris of the South", with such representative buildings as the Hotel María Cristina or the Victoria Eugenia theater , the original headquarters of…


San Sebastian International Film Festival!

Walking through its red carpet we will talk about its origins and the bizarre anecdotes of its guests.


And on the other side of the river… The Kursaal Conference Center, an emblematic building, located in the Gros neighborhood, which is more modern and surfer-friendly!

oh! Do you know the Jazz festival? For years an unavoidable appointment for the great jazz musicians. The Donostiako Jazzaldia: summer, friends, and music in the open air (even if it rains!).


And on the banks of the Urumea River, crossing its bridges, we will relax, to end the visit in the Cathedral of the Good Shepherd . Have you seen its stained glass windows yet?


Essential San Sebastián… let their stories tell you their story.

El tour está muy bien, el guia cuenta muchas historias y te va situando en cada momento de la época. Lo único que yo no llamaría esencial al tour porque falta información de la ciudad anterior a 1800 y para mí los orígenes son esenciales
