San Sebastian

"Order the pinxtos that aren't already on the bar. Sure—they are beautiful and tempting, but the great pintxos are almost always made to order. Ask the waiter what's available!"

"The most happening street in the Old Town is Calle 31 de Agosto, lined with buzzing pintxos bars and plenty of shops. Staying here will put you right in the heart of the action, but it can get quite noisy."

"You have to take a bus ride and then a little adorable boat to pasaia but it is an absolute must! Eat at Casa Camara where they have lobsters dipped in the ocean, and you get to choose yours."

"The city is mostly flat, with extensive sidewalks, promenades and bike paths, making it also optimal for walking and easy bike rides or electric scooters."
