    The best way to see everything in Donostia is to walk. The main spots are not too far from each other. Also, in most part of Old City are closed for traffic.

    We parked in underground garage close to Beach. I don't remeber the price, but it was not expensive. The best place to park and walk from there.

    We came to Donostia from Toulouse, France. It was not so far and the road is good. Donostia is just 20 kilometers far from French-Spain border.

    Look at Euskadi and Navarra tolls cause are the most expensive in Spain due to their ancestral exemption and privilege laws

    • I studied in San Sebastian. I lived on the north-east end of town, and the univeristy was on the south-west end of town. I walked to and from class every day (I'm slow and out of shape). The walk took me between 40-45 minutes. You can walk or bike through this town with ease. If you don't have too much time, take the bus. There are buses running all over town and the bus routes are easy to understand. But if you're not in a hurry, walk it.

    Bus is Best

    • If you are travelling between San Sebastian and Bilbao, bus is best. A coach trip takes 1 hour, 10 minutes, the train about 3.5 hours. Granted, the scenery is pretty by train, but does not justify the extra time. Nor is there a cost saving.

    IT IS A CITY WHERE YOU CAN USE YOUR LEGS FOR TRANSPORTATION. BUT IF THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE FOR YOU, DON'T WORRY, ALL THE CITY POINTS ARE VERY WELL CONNECTED WITH THE DIFFERENT BUS LINES, WHICH ARE ALSO ADAPTED FOR WHEEL CHAIRS. THERE ARE ALSO MANY TAXIS AROUND. BUT IF YOU CAN, I WOULD RECOMEND YOU WALKING, BECAUSE IT WILL LET YOU SEE PLACES OF THE CITY YOU WOULDN'T KNOW OTHERWISE. TRUST ME...
    TO GO FROM THIS CITY TO ANY OTHER IN THE BASQUE COUNTRY OR ANY OTHER TOWN, BUSES OR TRAINS CAN BE TAKEN. THERE ARE VERY GOOD CONNECTIONS THAT WILL TAKE YOU ANYWHERE IN THE COUNTRY. IF YOU DECIDE YOU RATHER MAKE A MORE COMFORTABLE TRIP, YOU CAN TAKE A PLANE AT THE AIRPORT THAT WILL TAKE YOU TO SOME CITIES IN SPAIN.

    For our trip to San Sebastian we flew from London Stansted in the UK to Bilbao with Easyjet (www.easyjet.com).
    From the airport we ended up in the middle of Bilbao and then made our way to San Memes where there is a bus station for locations outside of Bilbao.
    Here you can catch a bus to San Sebastian. We used a company called "PESA". A one way ticket was 8 Euro's each. In San Sebastian you are dropped off just off Plaza Pio XII.
