I am a British girl who has been based in the Basque country for the last 11 years after I completely fell in love with the place and the culture. I have a great perspective of exactly what being a tourist in the Basque country means and how to make your San Sebastian tours as individual, memorable and as special as possible. I absolutely love San Sebastián and having lived here a long time, I found that a lot of the tours and experiences were the middle of the road, regular activities. We take people off the beaten track, it’s all about trying something and stepping out of your comfort zone. And that's exactly what we allow people to do.
