Nice way to sightsee - Nice way to see the city and cover more ground than simply walking. Bikes are very basic but this tour is mostly flat. Our guide was kind and explained the basic sights to us.

Great tour for limited visit. - The route taken around the beautiful city and Oceanside and beaches was stunning. Great way to familiarize yourself with the layout of San Sebastián

A bit boring - Too long sections of cycling with too few stops and stories and historical explanations. Therefore a bit boring. Bicycles relatively old and not always technically perfect.

Disappointing and boring - My wife and I took this tour and were extremely disappointed. We’ve taken over 30 bike tours in various cities around the world and this may be the worst. It was pouring rain the morning of the tour and the company refused to give credit for another time or day-so overly rigid. That, in and of itself, felt like a liability. We were still interested in taking it so we bought some ponchos and soldiered on. We had trouble finding the guide since the meeting point was just a church and we weren’t sure where exactly. Usually there is someone with a bike or sign but not in this case, so we had to call (international charges aren’t cheap) and get the HQ to tell us where exactly to go and then ask groups of people if they were here for the hike tour. After meeting the guide and another family (who were lovely) we walked for about 5 minutes to the bike shop where we received our bikes. The guide never introduced herself, didn’t tell about what we’re gonna do, nothing about safety or staying in a line etc. We finally started the tour about 15 - 20 minutes past the hour. We biked for only about 2 hours and stopped 3 times, which if you have ever taken a bike tour, is far too few times. We wanted to know about the neighborhoods we were going through, some history, some things in residents knew about San Sebastián, etc. The guide had very little personality, although was nice, seemed like she just wanted us to follow her around biking. Again, we only stopped 3 times in two hours! Two stars are just because the scenery was beautiful (wish we could have known more about it…) and that we went through the longest bike tunnel in Europe, which was cool. We expected more and think this tour is 100% not worth your money. We will be seeking a refund.

A scratching of the surface - Hearing about the Basque culture and intersections with French and Spanish was very interesting. I had hoped the guide would have provided more detail about the origins, culture and history of the area and some anecdotes.

San Sebastián Bike Tour - Biking is beautiful and easy in San Sebastián but we did not get much history or see many sites on this 2.5 hr tour. For example, we met at a beautiful cathedral and rather than explain or talk about it, we walked 10 minutes to get the bikes. Tour guide was difficult to understand. Walking on our own in the evening, we saw more sites that were never explained. She also went off the bike path and, as we followed her, we were reprimanded twice, once by a police officer and once by an older couple on a park. We typically do a bike tour in every city we visit. This was definitely the worst. I do not recommend this tour.
