We will take an hour and a half guided tour of the old town, visiting the Church of San Vicente and the Basilica of Santa María del Coro. We will go through much of the history of the old part of the city, remembering the fires that devastated much of the city.
We will enjoy the atmosphere of San Sebastian strolling through the Plaza Mayor and the Plaza de la Constitución, to reach the Port, one of the most important places, both for its relevance in the character of its people and for the importance of maritime trade. And who said a walk through San Sebastian, said a walk through Bahía de la Concha. Get your cameras ready, we must return home with this photo.
We will pass by the Town Hall, one of the noble buildings, until we reach the Ensanche de San Sebastian. And at the end of this route we will go to the green lung, Plaza Gipuzkoa, and Plaza Okendo, to contemplate the Urumea river and its bridges before leaving San Sebastian. -
