Combine the spectacular San Juan de Gaztelugatxe with the elegance of San Sebastián on this 10-hour tour from Bilbao, a perfect route blending cinema, history, and top-tier gastronomy.
Experience two of the Basque Country's most spectacular destinations in a single day with this tour combining the raw power of nature at San Juan de Gaztelugatxe and the sophistication of San Sebastián. Departing from Bilbao, our first stop will be the iconic hermitage of Gaztelugatxe, a magical enclave that gained worldwide fame as the filming location for "Dragonstone" in the Game of Thrones series. We will climb the more than two hundred steps carved between the rocks and the Cantabrian Sea to enjoy unique and wild views of the Basque coastline.
After this unforgettable experience, the journey continues to San Sebastián, widely regarded as one of the most beautiful cities in Europe. Accompanied by a professional guide, you will enjoy a comprehensive guided tour to discover the majestic La Concha Bay, the City Hall, the Good Shepherd Cathedral, and the vibrant Old Town. This neighborhood is the heart of the pintxo culture, where local taverns offer the finest miniature cuisine. At the end of the tour, you will have free time to explore at your own pace, taste local flavors, or simply relax by the sea. This trip is designed for those looking to maximize their time and see the best of the Basque Coast in a comfortable, bilingual, and contrast-filled format.
