Travel Information

The city of San Sebastian (Basque: Donostia) is located in the Basque Autonomous Community in the north-east of Spain. It is well connected to major destinations around the world owing to a number of airports in the neighborhood. For the workshop participants, the most common way to travel to San Sebastian is by plane to the Bilbao Airport. At the Bilbao Airport take the shuttle bus to Donostia--San Sebastian. You will arrive at the New Bus Station (underground), next to the Train Station of San Sebastian.
