Perfect way to start

Published on Oct, 2024

Helena was a wonderful guide. She summarized the history of this beautiful place very well as we walked through various sections of the town . She highlighted why the Basque region has its own language and has maintained its strong identity within Spain. A very well rounded presentation. Highly recommend it.

Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and generous with the information she shared. The duration of the tour was perfect - an hour and a half. Would recommend for English speakers!

**Exceptional Walking Tour of San Sebastián with Helena!**

Published on Sep, 2024

My wife and I had an absolutely fantastic walking tour of San Sebastián, and we owe much of that to our wonderful guide, Helena. From the moment the tour started, Helena impressed us with her deep historical knowledge of the city and the Basque region. Her passion for the area's rich culture and history truly brought San Sebastián to life for us. The scenic views we encountered were simply breathtaking, and Helena knew exactly where to take us for the best photo opportunities. She also had amazing recommendations for pintxos, and every place she suggested was spot on—we enjoyed some of the most delicious bites we've ever had! What made the tour even more special was how Helena went above and beyond to accommodate my pregnant wife. Helena was incredibly considerate, ensuring we took a brief bathroom break when needed without missing a beat in the tour. Her friendly and accommodating nature made us feel comfortable and well taken care of throughout the entire experience. If you're visiting San Sebastián, I can't recommend this tour—and especially Helena—highly enough. It was one of the highlights of our trip!

Loved San Sebastián - a real charming city

Published on Aug, 2024

Helena was a lovely guide through this fabulous city and provided a useful commentary on the history. Might need to fact check some of the historical royalty references (different stories told to signage we found later) but a good tour nonetheless
