Hello! 👋 I'm a tour guide passionate about Donostia/San Sebastián and its gastronomic, historical, and cultural treasures. I love taking you out for pintxos, telling you stories about the Basque Film Festival, and discovering the magic of Basque culture together. 🌊🏔️ In my free time, I hike, swim in the bay, and create cookbooks full of recipes and stories. Thanks to my experience in hospitality and tourism in several countries, I can share all this in Spanish, English, or French with the biggest smile! 😄

Tour description
READY FOR AN ADVENTURE IN THE BASQUE CITY?
If you're visiting this lovely city for the 1st time
You're in the right place!
- Our adventure starts at the majestic Buenpas 'Good Shepherd' Cathedral.
- Of course, we’ll also stroll along the iconic La Concha Beach, the same sandy stretch that once captivated royalty. 👑🌊
- Down at the Harbor, with fishing boats and nosy seagulls, you’ll hear how this little marine corner once fed the entire city. 🐟
- Next stop is the elegant City Hall, which once served as a casino… full of tales of late-night bets and glamorous parties straight out of a movie! 🎲
- Then, going up to Mount Urgull (100m elevation and moderate hike) with its breathtaking views of the bay. That'll definitely steal a “wow!” from you before you even notice. I’ll share how old cannons that once defended the city now share the spotlight with visitors’ selfies. 📸
- Then we dive into the Old Town (Alde Zaharra), the pintxo paradise where every bar seems to battle for the tastiest bite. 🥖🍤
