Getting There
Travel from and to Bilbao Airport
Every hour a bus leaves directly outside the arrivals hall of Bilbao Airport to the main bus station of San Sebastian. From there the old city is within walking distance. Since bus tickets cannot be bought at the airport and the bus might be full, please use the below link to buy tickets online a few days before. The bus will take 1 hour 15 minutes and makes just one stop before final destination ('Donostia - San Sebastian').
