What you'll see and do
San Juan de Gaztelugatxe
Because “winter is here”, of course, we’ll travel westward after morning pick up from your accommodation in San Sebastian to San Juan de Gaztelugatxe, a breathtaking location used in the filming of “Game of Thrones Season 7" located about 35 km from Bilbao just off the coast in the Bay of Biscay. We will disembark the car for a stretch break and stop to admire the imposing views of the islet of San Juan de Gaztelugatxe from its lookout point. Surrounded by agitating seas and a ruggedly carved coastline, the islet of Gaztelugatxe is topped by an ancient hermitage devoted to John the Baptist. On foot, we will descend to sea level to encounter the striking double-arch stone bridge along which Jon Snow and Daenerys walk in “Game of Thrones Season 7”. We will follow Jon Snow’s and Danny’s footsteps and hike the 241 steps of the winding footbridge, which connects the mainland to the islet, to reach the magnificent hermitage of San Juan de Gaztelugatxe, where we will, as legend has it, ring its bell three times and make a wish. After stopping for photos and admiring the spectacular views from the top, we will descend from the hermitage and head back to the mainland to enjoy a much-deserved beer/wine and a pintxo (complimentary). Note: The hike to the top of the hermitage and back is about an hour and a half and a bit steep; we recommend wearing comfortable clothes and shoes.

Playa de Itzurun
Back in the vehicle, we will continue our route towards the shores of Westeros and the entry point into Dragonstone Castle by heading eastward towards Zumaia, Basque Country. Better known as “The Flysch”, we will admire the spectacular coastline of the Province of Gipuzkoa and descend to the famous beach where Jon Snow docks to meet The Mother of Dragons for the first time to contemplate its dramatic jagged cliffs and rock formations. We will show you the best spots for photo opportunities.

Game of Thrones Basque Coast Locations Tour from San Sebastian: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for San Sebastian.
How much does Game of Thrones Basque Coast Locations Tour from San Sebastian cost?
+
Prices start at $165 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in San Sebastian usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Game of Thrones Basque Coast Locations Tour from San Sebastian take?
+
Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in San Sebastian is not rushed.
Is Game of Thrones Basque Coast Locations Tour from San Sebastian worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in San Sebastian, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Game of Thrones Basque Coast Locations Tour from San Sebastian?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Game of Thrones Basque Coast Locations Tour from San Sebastian suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Game of Thrones Basque Coast Locations Tour from San Sebastian?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in San Sebastian can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in San Sebastian and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Game of Thrones Basque Coast Locations Tour from San Sebastian start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central San Sebastian within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in San Sebastian?
+
On Outty we rank every San Sebastian experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Small-Group Electric Bike Tour in San Sebastián, San Sebastian Old Town Pintxos & Wine Tour Small Group Tour, San Sebastian Premium Pintxo Food, Wine & Market Foodie Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit San Sebastian?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in San Sebastian?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
