If you plan to spend more than a day in San Sebastian, you shouldn't miss this day trip to Hondarribia and Saint Jean de Luz with driver guide. On this excursion, you will discover beautiful natural landscapes, spectacular beaches, quaint fishing ports frozen in time, unique and colorful architecture, and above all, you will immerse yourself and get to know the cultural richness of the Basque Country, which extends beyond Spanish borders, as Saint Jean de Luz is located in France.

After this brief stop, we will arrive in Hondarribia, where our driver-guide will provide a short guided walking tour to ensure you don't miss anything.
And it doesn't end here; we still have Saint Jean de Luz ahead of us. We will cross the border and enter France. Although we change countries, you will notice that Basque culture also permeates this area.Nestled within a protective bay, Saint Jean de Luz is a serene summer fishing village. You will have time to stroll through this village, taste its famous gastronomy, and even explore the Maison Adam patisserie, renowned for creating the famous 'macaron' back in 1660!
At the end of this lovely excursion, our driver guide will take you back to your hotel in San Sebastian.

Hondarribia
Hondarribia is definitely one of the most beautiful towns in the Basque Country and a real must-see! If you only choose to visit one village in the Basque Country, this is probably the one. Hondarribia (Fuenterrabía in Spanish) is a colorful fishing village that is both rich in architecture as well as in gastronomy. It’s a feast for the eyes and also for the stomach.In recent years, Hondarribia has seen a boom in its culinary scene. This is due to many young chefs who, after studying under the likes of Martín Berasategui and Pedro Subijana, have taken their knowledge and set up shop in Hondarribia. And the quality of their new gastronomy is right up there with what one can expect to find in San Sebastian.

Saint-Jean-de-Luz
Saint-Jean-de-Luz is a charming fishing village situated at the estuary of the Nivelle river, nestled in the Basque region of southwest France. Despite its proximity to the popular beach resort of Biarritz, Saint Jean de Luz offers a distinctively relaxed atmosphere. The town is bustling yet not overly crowded, boasting a blend of beauty without excessive luxury. Distinguished by its grand Basque-style houses, the old quarter of Saint-Jean-de-Luz exudes historical charm. Many of these architectural marvels date back to the 17th century, a period when the town flourished as one of France's foremost fishing ports. During the 17th century, Saint-Jean-de-Luz underwent a significant transition as its primary economic activity shifted from fishing to what could be described as piracy, with the town serving as a base for Basque corsairs.
