San Sebastián, well known for its abundance of culture and natural beauty, is bolstering its offer of access-friendly tourism, making it a key tool to welcome all those wishing to explore the city.
In a bid to move forward on this commitment, Donostia Turismoa has launched some new promotional material designed to inspire and also to guide visitors. This has a range of features from a specific accessible web to audiovisual sections showing a large number of plans. The Tourist Office is availing itself of these resources to ensure that anyone visiting San Sebastián, irrespective of their accessibility requirements, can enjoy everything the city has to offer.
In making this effort, Donostia Turismoa is demonstrating its firm resolve to not only improve accessibility, but also to embellish the experiences of all visitors, by providing inclusive access to the charm of this emblematic city.
The web platform is a testimony to San Sebastián's commitment to inclusivity and universal hospitality.

The new website is a comprehensive tool covering all necessary aspects of planning an accessible trip to the pearl of the Cantabrian Sea.
