Begin your private tour in San Sebastián, where you'll explore the Old Town and stop at 2-3 classic pintxos bars. Then, head up to the Igueldo viewpoint for a stunning view over the city and La Concha Bay. Learn about why San Sebastián is one of the most expensive cities in Spain and how it became a global gastronomic capital.
Next, drive to the Flysch cliffs in Zumaia, famous as a Game of Thrones filming location. Discover the dramatic layered rock formations, one of the world's key geological sites. Learn about the iridium band that helped prove what wiped out the dinosaurs, the K-Pg boundary.
