Best day!

Published on Sep, 2023

Best day in Europe so far! Our guide Borja, made the experience perfect! Beyond being incredibly well organized and having everything planned for us, Borja has spent his life on this coast and went out of his way ( literally) to show us how beautiful the area was. The day was brilliant, the surf was amazing, we had a lovely picnic, fun conversations, just awesome. We really lucked out! I was reluctant to go on a “tour” but the idea of trying to go surfing for the day, finding the spots, renting boards etc seemed beyond complicated… don’t hesitate, this was the very best way to have a real surf experience. Borja is the best. Very grateful!

Unique and Personalized Experience!

Published on Jun, 2022

During the Surf Safari, Borja took me just across the border to a French beach due to the weather in San Sebastian. Since it was raining, instead of a picnic afterward, we got coffee and pastries in the adorable, quaint French town of Saint Jean de Luz. Born and raised in San Sebastian, Borja knows EVERTHING about the area. After our surfing day, I went to a bar and a wine region that Borja recommended. I would have never known these wonderful places existed if I hadn't met Borja. During the surfing excursion, he was very patient and encouraging as I am a beginner. This excursion was such a unique and personalized experience and I am so glad I did it. I highly recommend Experience San Sebastian for surfing or any of their other offerings!

Surf safari is a must!

This was brilliant! Borja took me to some beautiful places I would never have found on my own-Do it!
