What an amazing place, especially if you’re a foodie! San Sebastián is packed with fantastic little pintxos bars and restaurants, and one of the best things about visiting is that you don’t have to commit to one big meal. You can simply pop into one place, grab a bite, have a drink, then wander on to the next and try something completely different.
The streets can be quite narrow and, at times, very crowded. When the weather is hot, it can also become a little warm and sticky, especially when you’re surrounded by lots of people. That said, the locals are incredibly friendly, and you can quite easily lose yourself wandering around the streets for hours.
The architecture is beautiful, with lots of historic buildings and some fantastic old structures to admire. There’s a real mix of Spanish, French and almost Italian influences, which gives the city a wonderful character and atmosphere.
I’d definitely recommend taking your time and exploring on foot — you never know what you’ll find around the next corner. Food and drinks can be a little expensive in some places, but there’s such a huge variety that you can usually find something to suit your budget.
And of course, don’t forget to head down towards the beachfront. The sea and tides can be quite unpredictable, so take care, but the views are fantastic and it’s a lovely place to spend some time.
Overall, San Sebastián is an amazing experience. Great food, beautiful architecture, friendly people and loads to explore. I’d absolutely love to go back and would definitely recommend putting it on your travel list! 🇪🇸❤️

Basque country at its best.
Our tour guide, Daniel, picked us up at the hotel and drove us to BILBAO where we took-in some views of the city and then made our way to the centerpiece of our visit - The Guggenheim. All I can say is The Museum itself (the building) is THE ART and all the amazing art inside it's walls seems to be there in a supporting role... what an amazing building; what an inspiring space. After a couple of hours in the Guggenheim, we proceeded to the coastline and took pictures in beautiful and historical locations such as Bakio, Bermeo before ending up in a picturesque, country restaurant called Almiketxu, which specializes Basque cooking including grilled meats and fresh fish - food was delicious and all paired perfectly with the local TXAKOLI wine. An amazing day made perfect by our knowledgeable guide who took the time to ask questions so he could adapt the day according to our interests. I recommend this tour and specially recommend our guide Daniel Gonzalez.

We really enjoyed the trip through the Basque Country with Trendtours at the beginning of June.
Everything was very well organized. The cities are very clean and worth seeing.

Touring in Sebastian and Bilbao with Iker
We had never been to Basque contry....best part was our guide Iker Bardaji and the tour company that he works with Baskme, private tours....after Iker of course was the Amazing Guggenheim Museum....you have to see it to believe it....then there was the history of the Basque people, their language, culture, their food. Iker was totally flexible with his time and how long....we chose not to walk to the Game of Thrones Island....that would have taken way too long....had a great lunch in the small town there. Hake fish in a green sauce, delicious and of course local wine. Charles (Tom) Thompson and Prima Penalosa

Daniel is an excellent tour guide, He provided us with a memorable, day-long tour of the Basque region around San Sebastian. We especially appreciate the invaluable information that made our time at the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao a highlight of our trip. He was very knowledgeable about the history of the Basque region. We highly recommend Daniel.

He Excellently provided us with all the information we needed to know about our tour and much more. Eskerrik asko, Andoni!

Andoni made the tour
Andoni was an amazing tour guide- knowledgeable, relaxed, and flexible to give us options when we wanted to grab coffee and a snack. It was a pleasure to go to this area with an experienced local who could tell us all the helpful, important stuff. I really enjoyed having lunch at the Game of Thrones rock area. And Andoni gave us restaurant recommendations in San Sebastian which were all spot-on. We ended up going to at least 2-3 of his recommended restaurants and really enjoyed each one.
