Donostia<br />

Donostia, as San Sebastian is called in<br />

Basque, is a vibrantly blended traditional<br />

and modern city, a mere ten minutes<br />

from the French border. Its circular bay<br />

is rimmed with a picturesque promenade<br />

and pristine white beaches. The city<br />

hosts the San Sebastian Film Festival<br />

and some of the most spectacular<br />

monumental art in all of Spain. San<br />

Sebastian is also recognized as having<br />

some of the best food in all of Europe<br />

with 18 Michelin-starred restaurants.<br />

While Pinxtos, Basque tapas, takes<br />

center stage here, the Basque<br />

cheesecake, can’t be overlooked. It’s<br />

a savory, decadent creation with a<br />

slightly burnt crust, which you can easily<br />

recreate at home. (See over the page for<br />

super recipe).<br />

If you want to feel like a local, and you’re<br />

craving a more authentic experience, one<br />

that leaves you with a feeling that you<br />

truly got to know the places, people and<br />

cultures that you’ve encountered, then<br />

without a doubt, the Basque Country is<br />

for you.<br />

As they say in Basque, Saran Astia, we<br />

have time…<br />

Sue runs a 10-day tour which takes<br />

in the most exquisite scenery and<br />

fabulous cuisine in this seldom traveled,<br />

southwestern corner of France…<br />
