Ambassadors
Gipuzkoa is my meeting point, where I can “reboot” when I return home.
Barely 2000 square metres, a little more than a city like London, manages to hold a cosmopolitan capital such as San Sebastián, a traditional culture and the oldest language in Europe, 86 km of versatile coastline and a lush green, maze-like countryside. Gipuzkoa is a concentrated territory divided into 5 destinations. That you enjoy them intensely.
