San Sebastian – Donostia Trip Overview
Discover the Basque region that surrounds Bilbao called Biscay ( Bizkaia in Basque language) during a full-day trip from San Sebastian. Fall in love with the charming 10th century hermitage of San Juan de Gaztelugatxe and climb its 241 stairs to get to the top and enjoy its magnificent views. Then head to Bilbao (the financial capital of the Basque Country) and get a glimpse of the architectural and traditional beauties of this wonderful city, including Guggenheim Museum (entrance ticket included). All this in one day, and with the convenience of private transportation (pick up and drop off at your hotel) & lunch included in the tour price!
