Then take a stroll in the old part of the city, led by your Basque guide who will give you useful information about the history of San Sebastian. Walk along the elegant Concha Bay, one-mile-long of sandy beach that offers a unique urban chic landscape in the heart of the city.
Now plunge into the real local culture, and treat yourself with what will remain one of the highlights of your stay in the Basque country: a Tapas hop in San Se old district, one of the cornerstones of Spanish foodie culture. Bar counters are lined with hundreds of home-made pintxos (tapas is Basque language), all different in size, shape and taste.
More than food specialties, this tapas experience gives you a genuine insight of Spanish art de vivre.
