What to expect
You'll start by telling your guide what appeals to you—a pintxos crawl through old-town San Sebastián, a Rioja bodega visit, hiking to coastal viewpoints, or a cultural deep-dive into Basque heritage. The guide navigates you there in a private air-conditioned vehicle, adjusting timing and stops based on your energy and curiosity. You move at your own rhythm: linger in a museum if it grabs you, skip what doesn't. Most tours run between three and nine hours; lunch and drinks are your call (guide can suggest spots). You won't be bundled with other tour groups—this is your journey alone or with your travel companions.
Good to know
Lunch and alcohol fall outside the package, so budget accordingly. The guide can recommend restaurants matching your tastes. Prams and specialist infant seats are available if travelling with small children. All transport, entry fees and guide time are covered. Nearby public transport options exist if you need alternatives.
