San Sebastian, known locally as Donostia, is where you’ll experience the unique and rich Basque culture, deliciously expressed in its cuisine. While you’re here it is essential that you feast on large helpings of pintxos, San Sebastians answer to tapas, ranging from Spanish omelette to mussels, ham, chillies and risotto squares, traditionally, served resting on a slice of baguette. Next, you have the enviable task of deciding whether to go for a dish of the freshest seafood, Basque style fore rib of beef or ‘Alubias de Tolosa’, a savoury, comforting bean broth.

The city smells of oranges, owing to the orange trees that line the streets – a gift from a king to his wife who was sad to leave the snow of the Sierra Nova in favour of the sun.
