Private tours in San Sebastián

San Sebastián curves around La Concha bay in a near-perfect crescent, with a hill at each end and a belle-époque city behind it. It also has one of the highest concentrations of Michelin stars per inhabitant anywhere, and an old town where you eat standing up for a few euros at a time. Tour Travel & More organises 100% private tours of San Sebastián with a licensed official tour guide, a luxury vehicle with chauffeur and a travel coordinator available 24/7.

La Concha and the belle-époque city

The bay became fashionable when Queen María Cristina started summering here in the 1880s, and the city she left behind is all wrought iron, white balustrades and wide promenades. Monte Igueldo at one end and Monte Urgull at the other give you the view that explains the shape of the place in a single glance.

Pintxos, by the rules

In the Parte Vieja you order one pintxo and one drink per bar and then you move, which is the whole point. The counters look like the main event but the blackboard is where the kitchen shows off. Your guide knows the order to walk it in, what each bar is known for, and when to switch from txakoli to cider.

The Basque coast: Zumaia, Getaria and txakoli

West of the city the flysch cliffs of Zumaia stack sixty million years of rock in readable layers, and Getaria grills whole fish over coals in the street. The txakoli vineyards run right down to the sea. It is a half day that most visitors never think to ask for, and one of the best drives in northern Spain.

Two countries in one day

The French border is twenty minutes away. Hondarribia's painted old town, Saint-Jean-de-Luz's harbour and Biarritz's belle-époque seafront all fit into a single unhurried day with a private vehicle and chauffeur — bring your passport or ID card.

With Tour Travel & More, San Sebastián is the bay, the counters and the coast on either side. Tell us your dates and a travel expert will build your private tour around them.
